I was joking. What shops give discounts? She could set a precedent
Pedant: Quite a few shops that signed up to the Brixton Pound..

Re: cupcakes - is this the same lady who bakes the cupcakes on the table outside the little sweetshop behind Federation in Brixton Village? They were tasty
That cupcakes are only just coming to Brixton demonstrates the place is about 12 months behind the culinary zeitgesit; frozen yoghurt is the new cupcake, apparently:

Good grief. They sound fucking horrendous.

Frozen yoghurt's lush. Have you never had one before?
I'd go so far as to say I'd take a frozen yoghurt over a cupcake.

It may taste alright but I wouldn't fancy being served a "Posh Snog" in a pink tub emblazoned with the words "I love little snogs" by these Kate Middleton-endorsed guys:
I too have eaten frozen yo-gert, as it's commonly known. I'd too would favour yoghurt over vegan cupcakes, but that is a low bar to set.
I would assume that the cupcake boom would be fairly short lived too, but they have their place in the world of ever sweeter muffins and donuts.

The frozen yoghurt van at the Lambeth Country Fair usually has massive queues but they serve generous scoops of no-frills blended frozen fruit and yoghurt on plain wafer cones at a pretty good price.
I adore frozen yoghurt but you can keep the twee name, the cute pink spoon and all the sprinkles afaic! What a load of marketing bollox!

Blimey, it's like a airbrushed Will Carling and the Sherminator together.
I'm an unsure whether I would be less impressed to carry a branded little snog yoghurt pot or bilously coloured overpriced fairycake around the streets of Brixton tbh.

Fuck you Dave!
I would rather have a cupcake that frozen yoghurt but then I would rather have cake over most things tbh

It's a tough call, tbh. But when there's the Phoenix opposite and Federation around the corner I don't think I'll ever be caught in that dilemma.

Ah I thought you were referring to the product rather than the proprietors, who do look like a pair of tossers, for sure.
But then so do the two guys who work in Frae at Ntting Hill, but they do make really tasty frozen yogs.
Very true. in the theoretical dilemma wars however, I am now weighing up the merits of vegan cupcakes against ponced up frozen yoghurts. At least they're not vegan yoghurts I suppose - after the crushing disappointment of buttercream with no butter or milk there's only so much a man can take in.

How can you have? Eh? This is why the world is wrong.

frozen yoghurts are delicious and refreshing - there's loads of places that sell them in India - there's a chain called Kiwi Kiss.
fizzy yoghurt jelly is lush too - my mum used to make it all the time, but i've never seen it for sale or made by anyone else.

What was it that girl on Dragon's Den had created? Wasn't that frozen yoghurt? Or was it some kind of ice-cream suitable for her child who was maybe lactose intolerant or something? Can't remember what it was, but apparently she was very successful

Freedom Lactose Free Icecream. Mr Shakes thought it was very nice..

Wasn't it Tesco or Sainsbury's that decided to stock it? Wonder how much fat and sugar is in it? Might give it a try one day

I got it from Sainsburys in Clapham
Its the only thing that gets me to stop in Clapham! I'd occasionally stop on my home way to Woking.
Ive extolled the virtues of the quite delicious Pinkberry on here before. Surely their first London store cant be too far away now.

Nice to hear someone use the proper word - none of this crumpet stuff

Pikelets and crumpets are not the same thing.

No they aren't:
Pikelet
Crumpet.
Quite blatantly different.
