A reader alerted us to Sprinklez in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and a search online reveals The House of Cake, also in Dubai, which offers a wide variety of cupcakes. They're on Flickr as well (where all these photos are from).
Update: Thank you to the commenters who were so quick to point out the unauthorized use of photos. We're going to be posting a "10 Tips for Bakeries" post soon, but this is a common sense reminder: Don't post photos that don't belong to you, unless they're properly attributed! Especially if you're a bakery; why someone would want to post a product that is not what they sell is beyond me. We do not endorse unauthorized use of photos in any way, and hope that ALL bakeries contributing to such practices use photos of their own work.
There is so much opportunity for community building and spreading the word about your products via the Internet. Please keep this in mind when creating and updating your websites. I'm removing the photos that were originally here; you can see their photos for yourselves in the links above.
Please also see this discussion on Flickr started by London's Crumbs and Doilies about what to do about unauthorized use of photos.
Feel free to share your comments in that thread or this post.

We have done all this cakes - in many cases even better than their original version - not always had the chance to make a good picture though - anyhow soon all non our pictures will be changes with ours.
I would personally wouldn't mind if anyone would like to use our designs - I think it is flattering not abusing.

Irena - owner of The House of Cakes Dubai
Removing the photos "soon" is not acceptable. REMOVE THEM NOW!! You have no right to use other peoples work to create business for yourself. What a shame you are on all of us!
Using other's ideas isn't the problem, using other's photos without permission and passing them as your own is a problem. Being busy is no excuse !!!!!!!
