I finally had the chance to update the blog....well...at least change the layout. Everything else needs to be done at a later date.
Shop til' you drop
I went shopping yesterday for all the ingredients for Route 129's cupcakes. You should have seen the look on people's faces when they saw my shopping cart. I wonder what they were thinking.....
"What's that girl gonna' do with 10 dozen eggs?????"
LOL!!!
Tip: Don't count on "Party Stores" to have cake boxes on stock. Just buy bulk from your favorite online retailer. It's worth it!

Long time no...post
With my beloved starting his new job, busy with our summer ministry and life, I'm finding it hard to be able to sit and post.
Great news, though, I have an order placed for this weekend. Yay!

Bye for now Chockylit
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!

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!
