Thanksgiving Menu, Black Friday Cupcake Craziness
Stop by our store in Downtown Bridgeport on Wednesday to grab your holiday dessert. We'll be open later than usual and will have all your favorite cupcakes along with our specials "Pumpkin Pie, Stuffing & Cranberry Sauce." That's Pumpkin pie "cupcakes," cupcakes stuffed to order with any of our delicious frostings and buttercreams and our own special cranberry glaze to drizzle on top. Hope to see you there!
BLACK FRIDAY: WIN FREE CUPCAKES ALL DAY!
Stop by the store on Friday and you could win. Each hour from 11-5 we'll randomly pick someone to win 1 dozen Chocolate Ruin cupcakes with rainbow sprinkles. 6 winners in all! But everyone wins, too, because our fantastic Chocolate Ruin cupcakes are just $1 each with purchase of any other cupcake(s)*. Why this craziness? Because we think we’ve got the best chocolate cupcakes around. So we’re putting our money where your mouth is…or something like that :)
*Limit one (2) $1 chocolate cupcake per customer. While supplies last.
Our Truck is not ready but our cupcakes are
We will be closed on Thanksgiving Day but open on Black Friday with some fun specials. Stay tuned to find out more.

Catching the holiday spirit
Something about egg nog just gets us excited and puts us in a really good mood. We want to buy it, drink it and experiment with it as only bakers can. What's not to love about eggs, cream and that wonderful and powerful but oh-so-temperamental nutmeg? We want to put egg nog in everything and we try. Oh yes, we try. Like last year's mini Egg Nog Cheesecakes and today at our bakery, Rum 'n Nog Cupcakes. Our twist on traditional rum cakes and ode to good old egg nog.
We hope you get to try this decadent, decidedly adult treat and that it warms you in all the right places and puts you in the holiday spirit, too.
Tuesday, November 15, 2011

What We Are Working On. And Not.
Firstly, a special howdy to all of our new friends in Stamford. We had a great time with you guys yesterday and hope to visit again soon.
Secondly, we have been working really hard at maintaining our culinary/business integrity as we grow our delicious little business and if that means we keep politely declining Food Network's Cupcake Wars and Food Truck Race invitations then so be it....
Competitive programs like these can sometimes be fun to watch from the sidelines but if you really care about food and quality then we think it's hard, in all good conscience, to participate.
We are in the midst of finishing up Truck #2 (hopefully by the end of November) and there may be some other fun things by then also.

Flights of Fancy, Food Network Invite
We also wanted to take a minute out of our busy baking schedule to thank Food Network for inviting us to potentially be part of their "Great Food Truck Race." Not that we have anything against food trucks but we have to politely decline. As we said both times we were invited to participate in Cupcake Wars, it's just not our kind of thing.

Here's to a Happier, Healthier Earth!
A HEALTHY CUPCAKE?
Have we got a treat for you today! Whether or not you're into "healthy" food, we have a cupcake that you're gonna absolutely lo-ove. We call it The Health Nut and it's full of wonderful stuff and is seriously delicious. It has NO dairy (milk, cream, butter), eggs, white flour, tons of sugar or any artificial flavors.
What it does have is organic whole wheat flour, antioxidant-rich organic cocoa, organic, fresh-ground flax seeds, non-GMO soy milk, non-hydrogenated shortening and margarine, natural peanut butter and organic coconut oil. And that frosting! Fluffy, creamy, chocolatey and nutty all at the same time. We have a limited supply in our store today and we hope you can stop in.
SATURDAY, WALK THIS WAY
We'll be sure to bring some more with us when we park tomorrow. We were invited to stop by Artspace in New Haven for a fashion seminar event called "The Urban Catwalk". We're still working on the parking particulars and will confirm once we know them.
IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS
Can't make it to the store or Truck this week. Here are two more simple ways to make a difference in the world. 1) Join the Elm City Market Coop. 2) Plant something. Even if you live in the tiniest apartment ever, you can still grow a tomato plant in a pot and enjoy at least one fresh, healthy vegetable for many months of the year.
Happy Eating!
Thursday, April 21, 2011
You could WIN FREE CUPCAKES!
JOIN OUR EASTER "EGG" HUNT
Visit our store today, Friday or Saturday, stop at the Truck on Saturday night or at one of our private events today through Saturday and if you find Easter themed cupcake wrapper, don't just jump up and down for joy. Eat that cupcake! But save the wrapper. It's your ticket to a free dozen cupcakes. Good luck!
MORE EASTER TREATS
We'll be baking up some beautiful Easter colored cupcakes and making some Marshmallow frosting as well on Friday and Saturday. So be sure to come get your Easter dessert.
Wednesday, April 20, 2011

If you do make it to the store, it's Two-fer Tuesday. So bring a friend and you'll both get freebies. If you can't make it, we'll see you at the Truck later this week and we'll try to make more of those mmmarshmallows and other Easter treats.
DON'T FORGET FRIDAY IS EARTH DAY
Lots of people have lots of great ideas about how to save the earth. We just try to the best we can every day to build a sustainable business. It's not easy but we do what we can like using natural paper boxes and sourcing all-natural, local/regional or organic ingredients whenever possible. We hope you will do what you can this Earth Day and every day. If you're in the New Haven area, here's an idea. Check out the Elm City Market Food Co-op and become a member. Support this effort that's bringing fresh, healthy, affordable food to local residents.

No parking @ XL Center today. Sorry Truckers!
We had some major troubles with our Truck on our way from Hartford yesterday (remember it's pretty ol...ah, vintage) and barely made it back to Cupcake Headquarters. Thanks to the Hartford Police Department and Sargent Garth, in particular, for your help.
We do apologize for the inconvenience everyone but hope that you enjoy the games today anyway. Our store is open if you happen to be in the Bridgeport area today and we hope you'll stop by.

Big East Ladies Time!
We'll be parking at Hartford's XL Center this Friday and Saturday at 1pm. We had a blast last year and met lots of new Cupcake Truckers whom we hope to see again this year. We have some new flavors you have to try and our old faves, too. Look for us in front of the 288 Trumbull Street entrance. Come on out and support the ladies as they do their thing.
IN THE STORE TODAY
Come get your Vanilla, Peanut Butter, Chocolate and Red Velvet cpcakes. Oh, we have a real treat On Our Cake Stand today...a towering, 4-layer tall Peanut Butter Cake with our new, creamy Malted Chocolate Buttercream topped off with chocolate malt balls. Hea-ven! You have to stop by and try a slice. Or better yet, order one for your next party. Ask about our cake options in the store or email us at baker@followthatcupcake.com.

A NEW CUPCAKE FLAVOR
We've got a brand new cupcake flavor debuting in the store today. Hope you can stop by and try it. If not, we will definitely be bringing it out in the Truck just as soon as the curbs/sidewalks are clear enough for us to park. Got a Truck Stop suggestion? Send an email to us at: baker@followthatcupcake.com
LOYAL FANS
Speaking of love, a big thanks to Cupcake Trucker, Eunice, for stopping by the store on Saturday. We hope this pic from her summer 2009 wedding to hubby Dave simple warms your heart during these cold, bitter days.

More snow coming :(

Thanks e-fair friends!
If not, look for the Truck to be back on the streets of New Haven and beyond starting early February.
The e-fair in Waterford today!
Because of all the snow out there, we'll be inside at a booth. So don't look for the Truck today but do stop by to say hello and get some cupcakes to go!
We're there only until we sell out. So be sure to come early!

Year of the cupcake
We have lots of fun stuff coming this year including great new flavors, new goodies, new promotions, new Truck Stops and more. But you gotta roll with us to be part of it all.
Btw, if you're tired of the snow and cold, take heart! Spring will be here in about 60 days. Meanwhile, be sure to stop by the e-fair next Saturday. It's indoors i.e. warm and toasty :)

So much snow!
We’ve been getting a ton of the white stuff (snow not vanilla frosting) and the roads have been pretty tough to navigate so the Truck probably won't be out this week. If things get cleared up enough and we can make it out toward the end of the week, we will. So stay tuned.
