indulgent easter cupcakes

We're always looking for a new way to make regular cupcakes more fun and more indulgent! We decided to experiment with chocolate eggs and our newly found vanilla cupcake recipe.

Vanilla cupcakes...or cake for that matter...is notoriously dry. We have tested and tasted numerous vanilla cupcake recipes and finally found one that meets our standards. This recipe is simple and produces moist results time and time again. We can now offer vanilla cupcakes as an option.

So. Take a yummy vanilla cupcake and bake it with a cadbury creme or caramilk egg inside and you have perfection! We decided to experiment with this concept and tried baking the cupcakes with a regular chocolate egg, a creme egg, and a caramilk egg. The result was so tasty that we have decided to offer this as our Easter cupcake. Contact us soon to place your order and wow all your friends and family this Easter with these indulgent tasty treats!

valentine's day


We completed a couple of orders for valentine's day. All of them topped with very tasty soft chocolate sugar cookies. The cookies were so much fun to decorate...especially since we discovered a new and easy technique that results in perfection every time!

We were also asked by a good friend to make a special valentine's delivery to her loved one!



This was such a fun delivery to make. On Valenine's Day I went to our friend's husband's workplace to surprise him and his classroom (he's a teacher) with these little cupcakes! One box of cupcakes had "Why do I love you so much?" written in fondant on the cookie topper and the second box had "Happy V-Day" written on them. 

It was so fun to walk into the school office knowing that our friend's husband had no idea these cutie cupcakes were coming his way! Unfortunately I wasn't able to stay until he came down to the office to see his reaction, but if the reaction of all the ladies in the office was any indication, they were a hit!

superbowl cupcakes


I am not an avid sports fan but there are certain sports that I definitely enjoy over others. Football holds a soft spot in my heart. I remember spending many Sunday afternoons watching CFL football games with my dad...sometimes even a double header! Dad patiently explained the rules and I do admit that there was a time in my teenage years I was obsessed with a few of the players from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

Since my son is American there are some US traditions that have become a part of our regular lives. This year was our first celebrating the Superbowl. And since we believe that all occasions call for tasty cupcake treats I whipped up some superbowl cupcakes! We spent the evening eating burgers and cupcakes while watching the game.



Well. What really happened, was my friend and I watched and entertained the kids while the guys watched the game. Typical!
