Twelve cupcakes is a relatively new yet delicious cupcake bakery in town. Generally speaking, I find cupcakes and cakes here a disappointment, as Americans like a much sweeter cupcake than the local palate seems to enjoy. But this is the real deal if you like the traditionally American style of cupcake. Pictures were taken over a variety of visits.

Ellie with a yellow cupcake, chocolate frosting and sprinkles
The chocolate peanut butter cupcake–aka my downfall (and just to be artsy, reflected in a mirror)
Chocolate with strawberry frosting
Chocolate with a cookies and cream frosting
Red Velvet with cream cheese frosting (and yes, it’s really good!)

If you recommended it, they must be really good. Now I wanna try them
Always on the lookout for authentic delights.
I have a small addiction to them. There are days when the cupcake is a “reward” for Ellie having a good day, when it’s really all about MY wanting one.
Wow! Thx for letting us all know about this place! I usually make my own desserts (I am attempting to blog about some of them), but that red velvet looks divine! I think I’m gonna have to try one or two or….
It’s really good red velvet, and I’m super picky about red velvet.
Let me know if you like them!
Hmmmm, I find the cupcakes in Singapore much sweeter than the ones back home. Plain Vanilla Bakery (http://notabilia.wordpress.com/2012/05/22/on-the-crumb-trail-a-guest-post-by-kay-of-kayspace/) has great cupcakes IMHO too.
I’ll have to check out Plain Vanilla!
A new place that has opened, its called is Swirls Bake Shop http://www.swirls.com.sg … they keep talking about how they have brought American cupcakes to Singapore, and when I tried them I total agreed…they remind me of the Sprinkles, and the red velvet is delish
Will have to check them out!
Hey! I just saw this and because of the different tastes offered here, decided to start my own cupcake bakery. I’m American myself, so you probably know what my cupcakes might be like. I am willing to give you a sample if you would like to try some!
I never say no to cupcakes
