I've been perusing the web for cupcake inspirations and found a plethora of sites and blogs. Here's one blog that is so inspiring to me. In fact, if you've ever tasted a chocolate cupcake from me, the recipe was inspired by her chocolate cupcake recipe (with a few alterations).
She closed her blog back in May...*sigh*...but thankfully she'll have her recipes available so I can still be inspired.
Bye Chockylit!
Bye for now Chockylit
What's in a name?
When thinking of a name for this blog (and possible business), Sweet Cakes Cupcakery came when I thought about my inspiration for baking cupcakes. My inspiration was my children. I have so many nicknames for them and Sweet Cakes was one of them. But if you google the name "Sweet Cakes" you'll find a couple of businesses with that name already. Also, I thought about me being someone else, if I heard the name "Sweet Cakes" I'm expecting to see cakes. But that's not what I do, I do cupcakes. Hence the addition of Cupcakery.
When discussing my new found "identity" with my beloved husband, he replies with a gentle, "That's a bit of a tongue twister, don't you think?" My huge smile turned into a mini pout. *Hmm* I suppose it is, but it's a super cute name. So in my quest to honor my husband, I'm seeking help from all (5) of you who read my blog, to help me find a new name. Here a is a list of some names that were suggested to me. They are in no particular order:
- Sweet Cupcakes
- Sprinkle Me
- Ah Yeah Cupcakes
- Frosted Cupcakes
- Little Miss Cupcakes (I think that's what it was)
- Strawberry Cupcake
If you have other suggestions, please pass them along. I'd love to hear them.
Take care everyone!
It's been a while
Hi folks! It's been a long while since my last post. To be honest, I've been quite busy. Can you believe that I've had a couple of people place orders from me? WOW! What an answer to prayer! It's really neat and exciting to see what God is going to do with this. Will he keep the door open for this business venture? Or will the door be shut? Only God knows that. While I wait, I'm going to continue to pray and allow Him to lead me. More than anything, I desire to honor Him in all that I do, that includes opening a cupcakery.
Here are some pictures of the recent orders that were done:
