Fortunate Friday- Ode to Valentine’s Day Cakes and Cupcakes

February 20, 2012 by Jenn

Valentine’s day has come and gone . . . once again!  And I next year, I’m taking the day off so I can focus on our orders and clients!  We are so FORTUNATE to have had so many people want to include us in their need to send their loved one something SWEET!   My Fortunate Friday post is dedicated to all of you <3

Heart Shaped Valentine’s Day Cake

February 3, 2012 by Jenn

My mom and dad happen to celebrate their anniversary on the 1st of February, so this year I made a personalized cake with a Valentine’s Day feel to it!  Unbelievable, it is their 34th anniversary!  I say unbelievably because that is more years than I have been alive . . . can you imagine being with someone for THIRTY FOUR years?  Relationships are certainly worth working for <3.  

My dad in secret asked me to make a cake to surprise my mom with.  I totally took advantage of my dad saying, “Make whatever you want,” (LOVE the freedom of design) . . . so what better to make than a Heart Shaped, Valentine’s Day cake!

How to Make Valentine’s Day Cupcakes – Video

January 17, 2012 by Jenn

Valentine's Day CupcakesNo, it is NOT too early to post about Valentine’s Day cupcakes!  I went into good ‘0le WalMart yesterday (sorry Dad if you’re reading this . . . pretend you didn’t hear that! . . . he doesn’t go to WalMart as they’re non-union) and the shelves are already FULL of pink, red and white chocolates, marshmallows and candies!  If you want to argue with me about it being too soon, don’t bother, take it up with the huge box stores!  I’m just a little minion, following in their wake 😉

But in all seriousness, Valentine’s Day is extra special to us, as it is the first time we ever had orders come in for JJ’s Custom Cakery! You could say that Valentine’s Day is how it all got started.  What were you expecting I say?  It’s when Paul and I declared our LOVE for each other??  Hahaha!  Nope!  BUT, it WAS when the LOVE of our business sealed us together, forever!  That has to be romantic on some level?  [Read more…]
