Lola's Cupcakes

Talk about taking London by storm: Lola's started as a catering business back in 2006, but has now grown into one of the most popular cupcake purveyors in town, with 15 branches all across Time Out's city of birth. They're now hoping to recreate that success in the sweets capital of the world, but will be facing fierce competition from the likes of Magnolia Bakery and Monarch, both sitting nearby Lola's upcoming shop inside Harajuku's new Cascade building. Try their cutesy creations from October – here's hoping that their 'Free From' line (vegan, low sugar and gluten-free options) also makes it to Tokyo.
