Day Two

Okay, so I didn't start with Day 1. The shame, the shame! I can't help eating cupcakes. Yesterday I had a classic vanilla with chocolate icing and a PB&J. Today the same thing! Today is my day off and my daughter wanted a PB&J cupcake. So I said, "We can stop by the shop and make a couple." Sigh. I love cake. It's my favorite food! I'll try and resist tomorrow, but I don't know. Is it worth resisting?

Long time no write!

It's been a loooong while since I've blogged. Busy, busy, busy!

My baby is engaged so we are planning a wedding! Not ready to let go..NEVER!!!!!

We now have on menu about 20 different flavors of cupcakes, although we only offer 14-16 every day. Cakes are still our bread and butter (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA I love baking terms).

In the process of creating a new flavor which must include Mango according to my future son-in-law.

Any ideas please post! Until next time Happy CUPCAKE Eating!

Falling for Fall!

Can't believe the summer is almost gone! YAYYYY!!!! I know, I know lots of people love summer. Not me! (Although, I do LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the beach). Give me crisp, autumn weather or cold, winter weather. I even love rainstorms! Something about it gets the creative juices flowing.

Anyhoots, back to cakes. We have some wonderful fall flavors we offer in the summer: Pumpkin Pie Cake, Carrot Cake, Apple Cake, Butter Pecan, etc. There are so many combinations to try!

Stop by and see us and see what we come with for the cupcake case.

Have a crisp and wonderful fall!

Love feedback from my customers!

I love baking cakes, decorating cakes and most of all EATING cakes!

I also like feedback from my customers. We received two thank you cards from brides who loved their cakes and two emails from two other customers.

The cake above was for our bride Ally. There was a bit of drama when the venue we were working with decided to bad mouth us to all the brides we had coming up at their location (ummm, venue doesn't pay then tell brides we have low quality work and are always late lol) I was so bummed out that they did that to us. Well a few of the brides insisted we still do their cake.

That is totally awesome. So to all my customers I say Thank You for all your support, encouragement and feedback.

A special shout out to Chuck who always makes me laugh and to Fred who brings us lunch!

Frog Prince

Isn't it cute? I have a special fondness for frog princes. Frogs in general. We had claw frogs as pets which are great, because they are underwater frogs and come up for air every few minutes. Our much loved claw frog was named FROGZILLA. She was adorable and huge!

When I would get sick, my husband would tell me a story about a frog prince (not the original frog prince story, but his own made up story). It always made me feel better.

When thinking of a name for my business, I immediately thought about the frog and how I loved Grimm's Fairytales tales, hence...ONCE UPON A CAKE and my frog prince logo.

Cake IS The Happy Ending!
