Fall Festival

Last Friday and Saturday we set up our Sweet Whimsy booth at the Fall Festival downtown.  It was wonderfully busy, with the elementary school's carnival booths, the chili cook-off, and the pumpkin carving contest.  Not to mention the screams and chainsaw sounds emanating from the haunted house in the old historic jail house.  We met a lot of new customers, and sold our delicious cupcakes.  Our flavors from top to bottom: vanilla with vanilla buttercream, chocolate with peanut butter frosting, pumpkin with cream cheese frosting (my personal favorite!).  They were a big hit, and the festival was a smashing success!

Assorted Cupcakes!

Custom Cupcake Order #1 was a success!  I made cupcakes for a friend's baptism get-together this weekend.  I topped them with chocolate number eights, eight being the age of the special girl!  I made four different types of cupcakes (from left to right):
  • Lemon with Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting
  • Orange Creamsicle with Orange Buttercream
  • Chocolate with Vanilla Buttercream and Chocolate Sprinkles
  • Vanilla with Vanilla Buttercream
It sounds like they were a big hit, especially the orange cupcakes, which, I'm told, disappeared first!
