Fondant Letters


How's this for personalization?!!! How adorable are these flowers made from fondant with letters engraved in them? You can request them in any color you'd like to match your party decorations. Write a message such as Happy B day, Get Well, Congrats...or why not the initial of each guests' 1st name? I bet they'd feel really special (and best of all, no one will fight over them!). You can even place one at each place setting instead of those paper place cards. Sweeet! A place card that's edible...now that's a party worth talking about. ;)

Just remember, you are limited to 12 characters per box if you want the dozen to spell out something (24 characters for miniature cupcakes). Miniature cupcakes are shown in the picture to the right.

Eco-friendly Couture


Bella Cupcake Couture
offers posh and chic textile-inspired cupcake wrappers. A neat feature is that each design is printed with soy inks on recycled paper, so you know they are not harmful to our planet.

Bella Cupcake Couture were kind enough to send us samples for us to test out and share with our readers. These wrappers are unlike anything we've seen before. They have the ability to offer a sophisticated elegance to any special occasion. The designs come in a variety of styles including floral, swirls and damask. In case you were wondering, you do not bake in them. You simply attach them to the cupcakes after they've been baked, and in our case decorated.

Simply buy your favorite frosted cupcakes (Hint: like Sweetkups) and set them inside these wrappers for an elegant finish. View our slideshow on the left for more pictures of Bella Cupcake Couture wrappers taken by Sweetkups.

How sweet it is to be the birthday girl...



Just wanted to share with you a cupcake delivery we just made yesterday for someone's birthday.

Aside from our lovely fuchsia box with a window pane and those wonderful cupcake separators that keep the cupcakes from touching each other (we all want our frosting to stay beautiful), we can also add a ribbon, card and candle for just $1. So why not personalize your delivery and make it special!

What? Free champagne!!!


Well, not exactly. You see, Royal Cascades is offering during the month of July a FREE beverage fountain rental with the rental of a chocolate fountain. What a deal! Imagine a waterfall of delicious milk, dark or white chocolate flowing down a 3-tiered fountain as you dip your favorite treats such as fruits, cookies, cakes or how about miniature Sweetkups cupcakes! And then, the best part of all, you get to wash down these delicious goodies with champagne served from streams from one of Royal Cascades' elegant beverage fountains. Now how does that sound? All you need to do is mention the Coupon Code: FreeFountain when you call 305.546.8834. Hurry, offer expires 7/31/09.

Can you say Sweetoogle?



During the month of July, if you place a cupcake order with Sweetkups and mention the Coupon Code: Sweetoogle you will receive 10% off your order (there's a minimum $20 order amount). Hurry, the Coupon Code expires on 7/31/09. Start thinking of any occasions this month. Need help? How about 4th of July, birthdays, baptisms, communions, anniversaries, barbecues, picnics or just a simple "Thank you for being such great friends". Everyone likes to be acknowledged every once in a while. Here's a picture of an order we just recently fulfilled for that reason- as a token of appreciation.
