Another day...another cupcake!

It is finally over...the day that is. Finished baking cupcakes, a variety of course, for one of Cincinnati's lovely brides! She will be tasting, Cinnamon and Sugar filled with Bavarian Cream...French Vanilla with Madagascar Icing...Vanilla filled with Strawberry Cream...of course, Simply Delicious (our Vanilla/Vanilla) and our Orange CreamScicle!!! If she doesn't fall in love...THEN...we will go to the Chocolates!!! A Ganache...a Fudge Buttercream...Mocha...Chocolate Bavarian...the possibilities are endless!

The thing is....SugarPlums gives samples to MANY of our "Bride to Be" gals...and, if they choose to go somewhere else (BUT REALLY who would!?!) then we could be out alot of time and money! Just thought I would share this with those of you entreprenuers who indulge in the
flavors of "Wedded Bliss"!!! Any thoughts to share???

Finally....the Sugar has been Passed our Way!

I realize it has been a while since I have posted. I do apologize. The "Ups and Downs" of owning a brick and mortar location...with a partner!?!

During the last month there have been quite a few changes at the CupCakery. First, I no longer have a partner....it is now ALL my family business. Next...I might have mentioned opening a Party Room...(for which there are already reservations)...Well...the opportunity has been presented for SugarPlums to move our brick and mortar location just down the road to 1241 SR 131, Milford, OH 45150 and it is a "free standing" LARGE brick building WITH a DRIVE THROUGH!!! YEAH!!! We are Sooooo excited! BUT...with the move comes alot of inconveniences for our customers and ALOT of work for our contractor and ourselves.

In an attempt to make it a bit easier for our loyal customers....we are still accepting ONLINE ORDERS and TELEPHONE ORDERS and will deliver them free of charge in the Cincinnati area.
Yes...we are still filling all the "pending" orders and delivering them to our customers too...and YES...we still do our fabulous SugarPlums Cakes and Special Occasion cakes to order! (We are doing a 1939 Truck as we speak and a Transformer B.D. Cake too!!!) (Pics to follow of course).

Moving a business is worse than moving a family of 25 years in the same location! There are boxes to pack ...some for the new location..some with items available to us for use to continue to fill orders. Machines weighing 800 lbs and more...ugh....and then new gas lines, electrical connections...well, you can imagine. Walls coming down...walls going up...lighting being changed...and ALL ON A BUDGET! After all, we must sell alot of cupcakes to pay for this move LOL!!!!

Thanks to ALL OF YOU...we are willing and able to make the move to a "Bigger and Better" SugarPlums CupCakery...full of life and of course...THE PARTY ROOM!!!!
Our new cases will be stocked with more cupcakes....AND...special occasion cakes along with our
Signature SugarPlums BerriLicious cakes ready to pick up and take with you on your next visit!

We are so excited about sharing the holidays with all of you....watch for our Grand ReOpening...it will be a blast!!

Email us @ sugarplumscupcakery@ymail.com; or give us a call @ 513-248-cake with any questions...or just to say "HI"! We miss you all and can't wait to share "THE SWEET LIFE" with you each and every day again soon!!!!
