Cupcake Items

March 1st, 2010

Whew!  Last week flew by for us in Wish-Cake land.  We’ve been a little void of postings lately — our apologies!  It doesn’t mean we’re not baking! Today it was fun to deliver some vanilla cupcakes with tiny shamrock sprinkles for a special customer! Unfortunately, however, no picture. (camera issues, stay tuned)

While we’ve got ya here however…do check out these cute cookie cutters at Crate & Barrel!  Cupcake Cookie Cutters
Then, check out the awesome Cupcake Sugar Cookie Pops on the blog, Cooking Guides for Everyone!  There are so many wonderful & creative people out there! We’re inspired!  Hope you are too!  :)

Cupcakes and Comments — thank YOU!

February 18th, 2010

We received the following comment from one of our recent Tie-Dye Cupcake deliveries.  Thank YOU!  :)

I love the service and everyone is always more than satisfied by the great tasting cup cakes. They are moist and delicious with just the right amount of sweetness! I always recommend them and when they are delivered everyone wants to take down the web address. Thanks Wish Cake for another birthday school celebration. – Pre K Mom, (Mt. Airy) Philadelphia, PA

Cupcakes REALLY ARE Everywhere

I saw this and had to share it. Check it out…Cupcake Bedding by the Lakeside Collection.  At first I was skeptical but now that I’ve seen the enlarged images I like it! Cupcakes ARE everywhere!

Valentine’s Day Cookies (not cupcakes?)

In my infinite wisdom — and because I wanted some variety — I thought it would be a good idea to make cut-out cookies for my personal use for Valentine’s Day.  (Similar to other baking experiments…again I learned I should stick to cupcakes.)  They turned out okay.  The second batch was thinner than the first so logically they didn’t need as much time in the oven as the thicker first batch.  While baking, however, I was distracted and they burned.  Ugh.  With all the red and pink and white sprinkles one might hardly notice the dark bottoms and edges.  It’s the thought that counts anyway, right?
Happy Valentine’s Day!

You can tell that Valentine’s Day is around the corner!  Here are some Vanilla Passion Pink with Mini Heart Cupcakes and a version of our Chocolate Valentine Cupcakes.  What an excellent (and super delicious) way to show you care.

Snow, Cupcakes and More Snow

February 11th, 2010

The cupcakes below were made during this past weekend’s snowstorm and then devoured on Sunday at a Superbowl celebration.  A combination of Valentine’s Day and the spirit of eternal snacking all wrapped into one!  Yum!

I’m sure you’ve probably heard that the Philadelphia area has been hit hard with snow this past weekend, Tuesday night and Wednesday.  It’s the most snow I think I’ve ever seen.  Seriously.

Snow on a tree near my house – see it stuck between the branches!

Snow piling up near my outside heat unit and between the fence posts.

Valentine’s cards with cupcakes on them are an excellent way to pick up one’s spirit while snowed in and stir crazy.  I received the one below from two very special parents.  Thanks Mom and Dad!

A Cookie Dough Stampede!

February 4th, 2010

We’re in the middle of the most Cookie Dough cupcake orders we’ve ever had in such a short period of time!  Awesome!  Today the Cookie Dough beauties were delivered to another university student in the Philadelphia area!   We hope they help warm up his birthday!  We’ve had colder days lately, however, something about today makes it feel EXTRA cold! (It says it’s around 30 degrees.)  The photo below shows the cupcakes in their 3 stages of creation!
