The Secret to the Best Cupcakes in Newfoundland (Hint: It Starts With a Pinch of Love...and Salt)

Hello, sweet tooth friends - Mrs. Goodie here. 🧁

Life is too short for boring cupcakes. You deserve the kind of treat that makes you stop mid-bite, close your eyes, and think, “Yes...this is exactly what happiness tastes like.” That’s what I’ve been baking right here in St. John’s. Cupcakes and cookies that some people may call the best in Newfoundland.

Why My Cupcakes Taste Different

Sure, sugar and flour are important, but the real secret is care. Every swirl of frosting, every sprinkle, every golden-baked cookie is made with my customer in mind.

When I started Mrs. Goodies, my goal was simple: make the best treats to make people happy, and create the most tasty icing ever...

....ok I can’t give away alllllllll my secrets (otherwise, why would Newfoundlanders buy cupcakes from Mrs. Goodies), but here’s one of my favourite tricks for making our icing unforgettable. ✨

It's simple...use salted butter

Nothing beats the rich, creamy taste of salted butter. It will make your buttercream silky-smooth and add a natural balance of sweetness you can't get from other substitutes. Of course, if you’d rather save yourself the dishes, I’ve got you covered.

Cupcakes or Cookies...Which Should You Choose?

Here’s the age-old question: are you Team Cupcake or Team Cookie? 🤔

Cupcakes bring the drama with colourful swirls, sprinkles, and toppings that make every celebration pop. Cookies, though, are the comfort classic. They’re perfect for sneaky midnight snacks, road trips, and cozy nights in with a cup of Timmy's tea (my personal favourite). ☕

The good news? You don’t actually have to pick a side. That’s why I bake both. Whether you’re hunting for the best cupcakes in Paradise or craving the best cookies in St. John's, Mrs. Goodies has something for you.

So the next time your sweet tooth has you searching for more, know that Mrs. Goodies is here with open arms...and a full oven.

See you soon,

Mrs. Goodie 💕
