Order Up: Happy Birthday!

The Order:
1 Dozen Mini Red Velvet
1 Dozen Mini Oreo-Oh
1 Dozen Mini Take Pride

Amy contacted me to order cupcakes for her daughter's upcoming birthday.  After spending a few days playing phone/email tag - we were finally able to discuss what she was thinking and get an order nailed down!  Amy had a taste of our cupcakes when we made this order - so we were ready to make some more cupcakes to enjoy!!

Into the kitchen we went to bake up some yummy cupcakes!  The birthday girl requested colors of red and green sprinkles to top her cupcakes - no problem at all!  Into the oven they went - when they were done, it was time for some frosting, sprinkles and then into a pretty box they went - then off they went to the birthday celebration!

Here's some pictures of the final products!

All the little cupcakes boxed up and ready to go!

Hello Red Velvet and Oreo-Oh!

Take Pride and 4 special request Death by Chocolate for the birthday girl!

We hope you had a wonderful birthday and enjoyed all of your cupcakes!

Order Up: Happy Birthday John!

The Order:
1 Dozen Oreo

One of the lovely ladies I work with had a birthday coming up for her son, John, so she decided instead of going with an Acme cake, she wanted to order him cupcakes!  It was a little gathering for her family and some friends!  She mentioned he loved the Giants, so we added some red and blue to the cupcakes!

One of the cool things about this order was that after they were done baking, I frosted them in the morning and was able to bring them into the office and she took them right home and was able to surprise him!

I hope you had a happy birthday little man and enjoyed your cupcakes!

Order Up: Lisa's Baby Shower Favors!

The Order:
Fluffy Elvis
Reese's Love
Red Velvet

Side Note: This order was back in April.  Yes I am slacking, but life changes took over for a while, but now we're back on track and I promise to catch up on the blogs I owe from the last few months! I'm making it a daily goal for this week! (And as I type this, baby Jolene made her arrival into the world, about 3 weeks ago and is such a cute little munchkin!!!)

Anywho, back to the good stuff!  Karen, Lisa's sister contacted me when she was planning the baby shower and asked me if I could make cupcakes to be used at the flavors, and I was so excited to make them!  Since Lisa and Matt decided to keep Baby P's gender a secret, the theme of the shower was yellow and green - so cute!  The flavors were decided and then the decorations were going to be candy teddy bears with matching pearls the same color. The cream colored boxes were bought, put together and yellow and green polka dot ribbons were selected to accent the boxes!

The cupcakes were baked fresh the morning of the shower!  Once they were completed, we frosted all of the cupcakes and individually boxed them up - after they had the adorable bears and sprinkles added.  Once I got to the baby shower, the ribbons were added and they were scattered on the tables! 

It was such a nice surprise and so good to see Lisa being showered for the little one!
