Cupcakes in the City opened in Geneva today

cupcakescity-genevalunch-theramblingepicure-sexinthecityFor those of you who just reminisce about cupcakes, or for those of you who continually have your eye out for the perfect cupcake after watching still another episode of Sex in the City, a new store, Cupcakes in the City, dedicated exclusively to the beloved American cupcake, opened today in the Eaux-Vives neighborhood in Geneva.

A wide range of both savory and sweet cupcakes is available, as well as the equipment necessary to make cupcakes at home.

The flavors have a sophisticated, European twist that your average birthday party or school fête cupcake doesn’t have, such as honey and Speculoos (ginger cookies), lime and ricotta, Carambar caramel, etc. They plan to expand the range over time, and ice cream cupcakes will be available during the summer months.

They come in mini and standard sizes, going respectively for CHF 3.20 and 5.50. You can special-order XXL ones, birthday cakes, and customized party and reception cakes.

The three partners are already planning to open other shops in Switzerland and abroad.

    Cupcakes are great but so is sex.

    Dear Jonell,

    Greetings from Shizuoka, Japan! I had the pleasure to be introduced to your blog and community newspaper by Warren Bobrow!

    I originally come from Burgundy (born in Dijon) and I visited Switzerland many a time as it was only 90 minutes away by car!

    Cupcakes! They seem to have become the link to gastronomic conversations all over the world!

    Looking forward to reading more!

    Cheers,
    Robert-Gilles

    Thanks for the compliments, Robert-Gilles! Yes, Warren Bobrow and I are foodie friends.

    Burgundy is indeed just a hop away from Geneva, so we’d enjoy it if you could share some traditional Burgundian recipes with us.
