Wedding Cupcakes

Cupcakes are everywhere lately! Using cupcakes instead of a traditional wedding cake is an emerging trend in weddings. Martha Stewart has featured cupcake wedding cakes on her website: http://www.marthastewartweddings.com/photogallery/wedding-cupcake-recipes


Also, wedding cupcakes are turning up in the latest bridal magazines. When stacked together on a tiered cupcake wedding stand, cupcakes make quite an impression!

Here are some pictures from this past weekend's wedding order. As you all know i dont make cakes! but had a friend make this cake to complete the cupcake tower. Cake courtesy of Sugar n Spice Edibles!

Next weeks flavor is.....

Hi Everyone,

Cookie Monster Cupcakes!

It was my daughter's 2nd birthday last week and we were celebrating with the Sesame Street theme. Since my daughter is sooo crazy about Elmo (which toddler isn't??), we had decided to order an Elmo cake from Sweetthings - www.sweetthings.ca. I found a picture of a cake i liked online and sent it to Juanita to see if she could replicate it and voila here's how the cake turned out:

Since i'm soo crazy about cupcakes, I had to make some for her birthday. Not only does my daughter love elmo, she also loves cookie monster! So it was decided, cookie monster cupcakes! Now making these cupcakes was "no stroll in the park" LOL. But they turned out great and everyone loved them!

Carrot cupcakes, with buttercream/coconut frosting and a chocolate chip cookie ofcourse! the eyes are edible mints.

What is Red Velvet?

I'm constantly asked this question, so I thought of dedicating a blog to describing how Red Velvet cupcakes are made. Red Velvet is a staple classic dessert among southerners. It is a rich, moist, sweet cake with a dark red, bright red or red-brown color. It is usually prepared as a layer cake somewhere between chocolate and vanilla in flavor, topped with a creamy white icing. Common ingredients are buttermilk, butter, flour, cocoa, and either beets or red food coloring. 6 Tablespoons of Red food coloring is used per batch! Here's what the batter looks like:

Into the muffin tray

Cooling on a wire rack:

And voila the final product....

Let me know by tuesday June 15 if you would like a box

TD Cupcakes

Hi everyone,

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! So as you know, last week was a really busy week for me! Thanks to my hubby, I landed a cupcake order for a quarterly meeting at TD for 125 cupcakes! The order was for just plain cupcakes, but I went the extra mile and added little TD flags to half of the cupcakes. Everything was going great, my hubby was helping out with the cupcakes. We finished the last box and went to put it in the fridge at about 11pm. I was making room in the fridge and Nikhil (my hubby) was standing behind me with the box over my head....well i'm sure you can imagine what happened next! I got up and hit the box and it ended up on the floor upside down!! After crying for about 10 minutes I got myself together and finally opened the box - again I started crying after seeing the disaster! Anyway, I had made some extra cupcakes that day so ended up using those to finish the order...but it was a long night! Here's how they turned out...

Tiramisu Cupcakes

Hi Everyone,

Since next week is my birthday i've decided to make my second (first being red velvet) most favorite flavor of cupcakes - Tiramisu!

I made these cupcakes a few weeks ago for a friends birthday and they were a huge hit! What's special about these is that they are 'injected' with expresso coffee and the buttercream is a made from marscapone cheese.

Let me know by Wed May 19 if you would like a box. 2 for $5 or 6 for $12.

Also please note the spring promotion will end on May 28, after which cupcakes will go back to regular price. Ie. specialty cupcakes like red velvet, tiramisu, carrot cake etc will be 6 for $15 and plain cupcakes like chocolate and vanilla will remain at 6 for $12.

Operation CUPCAKE

Just finished dropping off the last order of red velvet cupcakes. We had decided to meet at the corner of Bay & Dundas. I told the client i'll be easy to spot since I will be holding a huge PINK cake box! She was like "I'll be the one waving at that box!" lol.
Anyway, she found me and had brought one of her co-workers along (i guess if the deal went bad lol). I honestly felt like we were doing some kind of drug operation! Her coworker even asked me if I had some weed :) . Its all in the cupcakes i said :)

anyhow, it was an interesting experience and I would like to thank everyone who purchased cupcakes from me this week....stayed tuned for more updates

Red Velvet

Whenever I make Red Velvet cupcakes I think of Magnolia Bakery in New York City. If any of you have ever had there cupcakes you know what I mean! In our recent trip to NYC I introduced my hubby to the Magnolia Bakery. I made him wait in line for 2o minutes to get our order. The fact that we were doing this was incomprehensible to him. We finally grabbed 2 cupcakes, lattes and took a carriage ride through central park. An "orgasmic experience" as he described it. I promised him I would make them for him when we came back home.

He finally got his wish yesterday. He was more excited than when my daughter got her first dollhouse. Kinda cute actually. He took a bite of the cupcake and paused for a minute. Speechless. No reaction. Thoughts running through my head were - "did I add salt instead of sugar"? Then he finally regained his composure, and said, "all that's missing is a carriage!"

Here's how they turned out...

Easter Cupcakes

A few weeks ago I was approached by the Social Committee at my work to make cupcakes for Easter. I came across some really cute baby chick's at the craft store which I had to use for these cupcakes! And Easter isn't complete without chocolate covered easter eggs - yummy! I used a mixture of Hershey's and Cadbury's Eggs. Chocolate sourcream cupcakes with vanilla buttercream icing and carrot cupcakes with vanilla buttercream icing. Here's what they look like:

Here's the final product....I really enjoyed making these cupcakes and I realized that a lot of people at work didn't know that I had this business :)

Blog

Hi everyone,

So I have decided to start blogging about my cupcakes....stay tuned for some really cool updates :)
