Happy New Year!

Yes, it is a little late but all the same, Happy New Year from Epicupcakes! 2011 was an awesome year for us and we are still rollin'.

Since it has been a couple of months since our last update I wanted to just share a couple snap shots of flavors we did recently and hope to share many more in the coming weeks!

Double Rainbow Surprise

Thanks for all the support this past year and we look forward to even more this year!

Party On

We had a couple party orders this past weekend and I just wanted to share a quick pic of our latest creation:

The caramel macchiato cupcake. French vanilla cake, espresso buttercream, caramel drizzle. Big hit!. We also did out fall special: Pumpkin Spice, unfortunately we forgot to snag a pic. *facepalm*
Next time for sure.

Still Kicking

Wow, its been awhile since our last update but fear not, we are still around and still creating delicious treats! Early July we mentioned we were working on Coke and Malt cupcakes. Well we made it happen and also had a mini photo shoot with Will Jordan. So we would like to share with you a few photos from his session.

Here are a couple of the coke and the malt that we took for our own purposes

Since then we had a custom order that turned out well and we have decided on incorporating that into our year round menu. The chocolate banana cupcake is a chocolate cake with fresh bananas mixed into the batter and topped with a chocolate and banana swirl frosting. Here are some is a photo from a baby shower we did featuring these tasty morsels.

Also featured at this party were vanilla cupcakes topped with a white chocolate blueberry frosting (another custom flavor)
We also had the pleasure of hosting a baby shower for a close friend of ours last month. The theme was dinosaurs and the flavors she selected were: Chocolate Banana, London Fog, and French Toast. We customized the decorations and the frosting colors.

We hope you have enjoyed our photos, I know we enjoy sharing them :)
 Let's not forget:
Now that we are 1 week into September we are introducing our new fall flavor: Pumpkin Spice!
We will have photos up next week! Stay posted!

Order Up!

We successfully completed a large order of 12 dozen mini cupcakes! 6 different flavors all together. It went really well. We also had some time to photograph some of the cupcakes we made that we didn't have photos of before. Such as our new favorite: French Toast:

This is a vanilla and cinnamon cake with maple buttercream frosting sprinkled with cinnamon sugar and topped with a crispy strip of bacon! The perfect breakfast cupcake! We also captured the scrumptious Raspberry White Mocha!

This one is a chocolate espresso cake with white chocolate and raspberry frosting adorned with a fresh raspberry :) The last one we took a photo of was the dark chocolate mints. I think the photo could have turned out better but by this point we were pooped and ready to be finished for the night lol

As always this is the dark chocolate cake with Andes mint chips inside. It is topped with a light mint frosting and sprinkled with chocolate curls. After the photos everything was packaged up and ready for delivery.

the six flavors

everything all packaged and ready to go!

Angela made the delivery and I was told the client was very pleased! Another job well done. Also next week is our website launch party! So plenty more cupcakes to make! For more info on the party please visit our facebook page: www.fb.com/epicupcakes

To Infinity and BEYOND!

I know it has been quite awhile since the last update but things are getting busy for us around here. Just a couple weeks ago Angela and I flew out to Denver,CO for a friend's wedding and we provided cupcakes for the reception. It was a great hit, unfortunately we forgot to take photos. We did get one from someone else tho while we were setting up:

We are also preparing for our website launch party. We spent Saturday afternoon painting and distressing some chairs.

We will also start preparing our custom cupcake towers this week.  We can't wait for the party!
We also have a couple large orders in the works so we are moving forward! Hopefully the party will have a great turn out and generate some more orders.
We will be sure to have a bunch of great photos from the party so stay posted for all those goodies. If you want more info on the party pls visit our facebook page: fb.com/epicupcakes
