Cupcake of the month!


Whoa! Septembers S'mores cupcake of the month was a huge hit- tons of people poured into the shop to try it... and most of them came back for seconds and thirds!

But, September is over... which means that it's time for a new cupcake of the month! Last October we featured a really great cupcake that we have been receiving requests for ever since. We are happy to report that due to popular demand we are featuring it again this year! It's a Sweet Potato cupcake with orange cream cheese buttercream topped with pecan praline. So yummy!

We are also excited to bring back another flavour favourite from last year- pumpkin cupcakes with cream cheese buttercream. Yummy and oh-so-seasonal!

Cupcake of the month!

September is already here! That means it's time for a new cupcake of the month!

September is about savoring the last few days of summer- it's time to enjoy one last swim in the lake and a few more ice cream cones. Bathing suits and sandals will soon be swapped for cozy sweaters and winter boots. Time to have a few last summer bonfires... roast some marshmallows and eat a few more s'mores.

Wait!!! No need to go out and buy all the fixin's for s'mores- just come to yummy stuff and pick up our cupcake of the month: graham cracker base, chocolate cupcake with chocolate filling and a burnt marshmallow topping! I suggest picking up at least 2 for everyone... they are that yummy!

A great back-to-school treat!



Ahhh... school lunches: peanut butter and jam sandwich, crisp red apple, celery sticks and cookies: this has been the classic lunch since...well...sliced bread!

How about celebrating the new school year with a sandwich cake? Delicious vanilla flavoured pound cake with a peanut butter/milk chocolate and raspberry jam filling...Mmmm... yummy!

Don't be fooled by the pictures: that's a full sized cake plate, this is no ordinary sized sandwich. This clever treat serves 10-12 and costs $25.00. Please call us at least 48 hours in advance if you would like to order!
