Cupcakes by Sonja at Serendra Piazza

Sonja's cupcakes are so overrated! If you're looking for something sweet, you're better off eating at Miss Desserts, just beside Sonja's. Nothing's special about her cupcakes.

She's just lucky her business was able to ride on the usual Pinoy mentality of being influenced by all the hype caused by people who rave about what's "IN". It's new, it's ridiculously expensive, so people try it out, therefore it gets talked about frequently.
