Cupcakes in Vienna... @ Gerstner

I was astonished to find a local, traditional bakery suddenly offering cupcakes. It is Gerstner on Kärntnerstrasse, the main shopping street in Vienna's 1rst district. Of course I had to try some flavors and in order to justify buying more than 1 I talked my bf into eating one too, at least partially :D

So here we got a peach cupcake on the left and a chocolate one on the right. Let me tell you: both are delicious! The frosting is lightly whipped butter with some flavor, sooo not good for your health but sooo great tasting. The chocolate cupcake is filled with a bit of hazelnut paste (like Nutella) and the peach cupcake has yummy sweet peach pieces in the dough.

I have a slight preference for the peach cupcake, sind the whole thing goes together very well. The frosting isn't too sweat and the peach pieces add a flavor boost one piece at a time. Me likes :D As for rating: 8.5/10 for the chocolate and 9/10 for the peach cupcake. They cost 3 or 3,50€ I believe. However, I've never eaten an American (original, so to say) cupcake, so I can't really compare how authentic the Gerstner cupcakes are. If anyone has the knowledge please share!

Long time no see again :P

I promise I'll be posting more regularly again in the future :D I've been busy with an internship for 6 months that ended just some weeks ago. Now I'll have plenty of time to show you more food. What's coming up? Steirereck (yeah, finally went there), Mraz und Sohn (which is kind of a Steirereck Knock-Off IMO), Business Class of China Airlines and much more...
