better than sex chocolate cupcakes!

I thought these turned out kinda cute.. they were for a friend's birthday. Most importantly, they were damn delicious. Better than sex chocolate cupcakes filled with Chocolate Mousse topped off with Chocolate Cream Cheese frosting. Oh, and PS -- a fresh raspberry in the middle of the Chocolate Mousse (surprise!). I told you they were going to be better than sex.

Holy Italian Buttercream Batman!

If you haven't heard. I'm really fucking busy. Excuse the language, or don't... at this point, I've lost all sense of couth and/or giving a shit. See... there I go again. You know it's bad when you sign into your "Foodbuzz" account and you have 747 messages in your inbox. Holy Italian Buttercream Batman, this is getting redic. The good news... there is an end in sight to the insanity. Who am I kidding? There is no sooner an end to the insanity before another whirlwind begins. I'm still trying to work out the kinks between wife, mother, and small business owner. Obviously (just ask my husband). I'm lucky to have a lot of people that believe in me and offer help (don't worry, I'll be taking you all up on it soon!) and support. I need that. It keeps me from 100% losing my marbles. I know, I know... short trip.

Whatcha think about that cute little cupcake? Thanks to the wonderful Miss. P that will be the cupcake that graces our bakery box seals. And, you can see the other logo above. Yes, the really big one at the top of the blog. Congrats, you found it. It's equally fantastic. At least, I do say so myself. Thank you again to the fabulous Parisa for all of her rockstar hard work. She'll be eating BABYCAKES on the house... oh, I don't know.. forever?

Moving right along. The website is fully functional. Go there. Now. And, while you are there... go ahead and visit the "Got Questions?" page and order your cupcakes. I'll say, Thank You! in advance. Seriously though -- www.willhustleforcupcakes.com. Tell your friends, your mom, your neighbor, and the guy that works at the gas station. You get the picture.

I know that I've promise you a "For the Record, part two" rant... but, hell. I've promised a lot of things. Who knew one little confection company could keep me so busy?

AND... Happy almost St Patrick's Day! You'll be able to order the Chocolate-Guinness cupcakes w/ Bailey's frosting for the entire month of March. Why not add a chocolate ganache center and make them Car-Bombs? Sound delish? That's because they are. Slainte!

"365 THINGS TO DO IN SOUTHERN MARYLAND" does BABYCAKES!

Day 76 of 365 THINGS TO DO IN SOUTHERN MARYLAND!

I immediately fell in love with this website as soon as I saw it. There actually ARE things to do here in Southern MD. And, the best part is... one of those things, is to order BABYCAKES! Check out the article (linked above).

in recent news!

OLD TOWN CRIER, REGIONAL MAGAZINE -- ARTICLE ABOUT BABYCAKES!

follow the link, and enjoy!

In other news, I'm buckling down and getting the BABYCAKES website finished this weekend! Updates, promised along the way.

Oh, and check back for a "For the record..." part two. Coming soon and, likely a little bit on the rant-y side. Would you expect anything less?

as if we needed more reason to celebrate...

HAPPY NATIONAL CARROT CAKE DAY!

It's true. Carrot cake happens to be one of my most favorite BABYCAKES flavors. I'm not sure if it's the most perfect cream cheese frosting (I know I'm biased, but I strongly believe that our cream cheese frosting = to die for) that usually tops these quasi-healthful cupcakes or if it's simply because I can lie to myself and say, you know... these aren't terrible for you; there are carrots in them, after all! I'll have two....

Either way -- the next time you have an excuse to order some BABYCAKES, you should defiantly try our Carrot Cake. You'll be surprised. Not all carrot cakes are the same, and certainly -- not all carrot cakes are BABYCAKES!

to the boyfriends, husbands, sons, etc... PAY ATTENTION!

The Old Town Crier should hit the streets tomorrow! Make sure you grab a copy, read the BABYCAKES article (February edition, Business profile), and then -- order your Valentine's Day cupcakes (babycakesSKJ@gmail.com -- is where you order, in case you are new to the site)!

I've extended the time in which I will be taking orders for Valentine's Day (you can order up until the 12th to get a delivery on the 14th). I'm not going to lie, I did this because it was brought to my attention that most men wait until the very last minute to get their wives, girlfriends, boyfriends, fiances, significant others, moms, sisters, friends, ad nauseum a gift. So -- there you go boys. You've got plenty of time to get that order for a half dozen Chocolate Raspberry Stout cupcakes topped with Ganache Buttercream and Chocolate dipped Strawberries in for your sweetie.

PS. You are going to be able to order the "Valentine's flavors" for all of February! I personally, am obsessed with them, and want to give everyone the opportunity to taste these heavenly treats.
