New Menu, New Prices, New Business Cards!


What a crazy few months it's been?!? I've gone from making cupcakes for fun, to forcing my family and friends to try them, to selling to my friends, to now selling to EVERYONE! My love for cupcakes grows as I spend hours in the kitchen trying new recipes, decorations and techniques. I've added lots of new flavors the past few weeks and wanted to post a complete menu. You'll notice 4 fruit inspired flavors, which I think will be great for events in the coming spring and summer months.

NEW MENU
Classics
- classic moist white cake, topped with cream cheese or chocolate frosting (looks great in tie dye!)
- milk chocolate cake (or white cake), topped with traditional buttercream frosting
- devils food chocolate cake, topped with whipped cream cheese frosting
- yellow cake, topped with chocolate, cream cheese or buttercream frosting
- coconut almond cake, topped with almond cream cheese frosting
- peanut butter cupcakes, topped with creamy peanut butter cream cheese frosting
- red velvet cake, topped with classic cream cheese frosting
Fruit Inspired
- rich lemon cupcakes, topped with cream cheese frosting and garnished with lemon zest
- moist strawberry cupcakes, topped with strawberry cream cheese frosting
- maraschino cherry cupcakes, topped with cherry cream cheese frosting

Filled Cupcakes
- white cake filled with sweet raspberry, topped with almond buttercream
- milk chocolate cupcakes, filled with peanut butter cream cheese, topped with milk chocolate frosting
- dark chocolate cake, filled with chocolate/coffee liquor, topped with coffee buttercream frosting
- devils food chocolate cupcakes, filled with a miniature Milky Way candy, topped with milk chocolate frosting

Prices vary depending on customization and decorating involved. In general, each cupcake is $1.25.
- 1 dozen standard.....$15

1st Birthday!!!


Normally I do not have "favorite" cupcake orders...however...these were SO MUCH FUN! I loved the colors, the polka dots, and of course, the birthday girl was absolutely adorable!

First, the cupcakes.






I know this is a cupcake blog...but...I was the party planner...and I wanted to show off some of the decorations!


Last, but of course not least, the birthday girl!


Happy Birthday Addison :)

Birthday


These are fairly normal birthday cupcakes...still very cute!



'Congrats on your New House' Cupcakes...


"Congrats" cupcakes are sometimes a challenge. I was pleased with how these turned out...

Mmmm....Lemon!


For the record....I am NOT a lemon person. I don't like lemon head candy, lemon ice, lemonade, lemon in my tea...I think you get the point. HOWEVER, these lemon cupcakes are delicious! The lemon flavor in the cake is light, more of a rich lemon flavor than a tangy lemon. The cake is topped with the cream cheese frosting and lemon zest. Mmmmm!

More Help...


When days get busy.... I can NEVER turn down free help. Even this little guy likes to help me in the kitchen. How can I say no to this face!?!






New Way to Eat Cupcakes!


So....if you've ever experienced a Hello Cupcake!....you know that they are sometimes hard to eat. The piled-high icing always seems to make the cupcake "flop" (as my sister would say) off the plate. I got creative, and this is the new way to eat cupcakes. Believe me, they are much better eaten out of martini glasses! Pictured below is the peanut butter topped with peanut butter cream cheese.


More Birthday Tie-Dye!


Forgot to turn on the flash....these were bright pink, yellow and purple!
