We love making pink girly decorations against our peanut butter chocolate frosting. It really pops!
Havn't been great with the old website updates these past weeks. But we've just been so so busy that we havn't had a chance. Whenever this happens, you can rest assured that we are still letting you know the goings on via Twitter, Facebook or Instagram! Are you following/liking us? You should... lots and lots of cake...
January was a month that we thought we'd have time to give the office a spring clean and catch up on some sleep... oh how wrong we were! We've had a LOT of wedding consultations and bookings. Take a look at the 4 tier wedding cake (in vintage style) we made in December!
We were delighted with how it turned out! We also love making cupcake displays as well as or instead of a wedding cake for the big day! The bride who ordered these also had a retro sweet bar... very cool!
...Mondays... ugh. But with so much on this week, we've a feeling it's going to fly by.
This time last week we'd not much in the diary so we decided to get going on a few ideas including a new product launch (Wednesday), a live feed masterclass on Twitter (Thursday), and a demo evening in House of Fraser during the Dundrum TC's Rock and Shop night (Thursday) - more information about that great night here on their website http://www.dundrum.ie/events/shop-and-rock-blog/
Then, late last week we got in three large corporate orders and another possibly HUGE order for Friday. So we're flat out now for the next 10 days! This is all on top of the normal stockist orders, a hen party order and a fundraiser on Saturday evening! It's days like these that make me wish we could hire more staff... maybe some work experience or part time. Let's add that to the To Do list.... ;)
We've been keeping an eye on the Sandy Relief efforts in America this week and last week and some of the fundraising has been amazing! We love the customised red velvets being sold by Sprinkles (Californian cupcake chain)
...We've been so busy this month, perfecting our newest products, fine tuning the Autumn flavours and already thinking about our Christmas range!
We were in London over the weekend and of course had to pop in to our fave bakery over there, Primrose Bakery. A good friend I met travelling works there so we got some amazing treats! All market research of course... ahem...
Next week we are going to start something very exciting (well we think so!) - a weekly masterclass which we will tweet live on Twitter every Thursday afternoon. If you can't get to Twitter because your boss is one of those annoying people who expect you to actually work so close to the weekend, then don't worry, we will pop a downloadable PDF up here on Friday just in time for you to try out the recipes yourselves over the weekend!
