In addition to cupcakes, they also do cakes (sold by the slice or the whole), pies, brownies (which are also very popular), and other more "American style" treats. Their special flavor of the day is also worth checking out, as those are often huge hits. They do custom cakes by consultation, as well, should you be looking for just that right dessert to celebrate a special occasion.
After my visit, I received a copy of the Hummingbird Bakery Cookbook to give away to the readers of this site. It is chock full of recipes from the store, featuring many of their well-loved creations. For a cookbook featuring the classic sweet treats to have in your culinary repertoire, you might want to make room on your shelves for this one.

Well, one of the cupcakes was red velvet for certain. I couldn't find the other one on their site, so I'm going with Sunny Side Up. Apricot/Vanilla? Yummy regardless!
They were yummy. The second one is a specialty flavor that they had that day. I talk about it in the post about London Food Finds.
Red velvet and Lemon tart!
