QLA – Quick Little Advice

Friday, March 13th, 2009

We learn from our customers and others every day. Because we are still learning (and always will be!) Wish-Cake rarely offers advice.  We certainly don’t want to alarm anyone to the point of no return.  That wouldn’t be good.  However, we do want to advise cupcake purchasers as well as cupcake eaters about using dragees as sprinkles.
Dragees of all colors are very hard.  We had a customer recently report that she felt the hardness of the drageees took something away from the overall enjoyment of the cupcakes!  That’s no good! Although dragees look pretty and “dress-up” a cupcake — we advise that some celebrations don’t warrant the inflexible sprinkle.  However, we won’t refuse any customers’ request to sprinkle a batch with ‘em!  Bite carefully!

That’s today’s QLA. We’ll post again if and when we see the need.
