A Cupcake Story
Cupcakes have been on the rise of
popularity for the past few years, inspired by scenes from Sex in the City of
Magnolia’s bakery in New York. Magnolia’s original cupcake recipe was a perfect
vanilla cake with vanilla butter cream icing tinted pink, nicknamed the ‘Barbie
cake’. Now, although we are not in New York, the obsession spread fast.
6 years ago a friend of a friend popped
into our store at Milton and said “Mark, I have this friend of ours who makes
the best cupcakes around”. Naturally, being the sweet tooth that he is Mark
said... “Great, tell her to bring some down for me to try”, and this is where
it all began. The following day, arrived a gorgeous woman who goes by the name
Aleta, mother of two with an incredible talent in the kitchen. Her love and
passion for baking keeps her busy, and by busy I mean while being a mother of
two, she is awake throughout the night preparing her cupcakes for morning
deliveries. Aleta’s cupcakes are a baby vanilla cupcake with a light butter
cream icing in various pastel shades.
In
the words of Narelle, these little masterpieces are perfect for every occasion,
well loved by all from our little pink tutu ballerina’s at Milton to football
stars with their coffee in the afternoon, birthday parties and special occasions
or afternoon treats.
This Valentine’s Day Aleta will be busy preparing
some extra special Valentine’s Day cupcakes. These dreamy bite size treats are
made especially for Valentine’s Day with Belgium chocolate and a rich chocolate
icing with a red heart on top. They will be for sale individually or in boxes
of 4 or 9. Place your order by February 12th; you will not want to
miss out.
