Happy Monday Truckers!


Hope you all had the best of weekends and for those of you who didn't, our condolences and better luck next time :O)

We had a fantastic time baking for our new friends Lizzy, Donald and Margaret over the weekend and we look forward to you guys spreading the word  for us on America's Original way up north!

There have been a lot of emails asking about our new location in Westport and how to get the goods so we will put together a simple Q and A on our blog and emails so you guys can get the skinny on tastings, delivery, pickups and rentals.  See you later in the week.

ALSO, for those of you looking for the original cupcake truck just look out for our cute little truck logo below.  If you don't see this logo or our business name "The Cupcake Truck" then it's not us and won't taste like the original.

Rain check on Cos Cob/Riverside Parking

So were on our way back from a photo shoot last night and our trusty vintage Truck fell victim to another giant pothole/crater/sinkhole/interdimensional portal. We never even saw it coming and WHAM! Just like that Tuesday is now tinker day :(

We must reschedule our visit to Cos Cob/Riverside till next week. Don't worry. We'll bring that fantastic wine buttercream with us.

Cos Cob/Riverside This Tuesday 7/24

We'll post our specific parking spot and time later today.

Hope you can make it because we'll whip up a batch of a limited flavor—a fantastic buttercream made with wines from Stonington Vineyards. Thanks to Happy and everyone there for inviting us back this weekend. We have a fun time.

We're on Greenwich Ave across from Arts Council

Figured we'd get a jump on the holiday traffic and get here early. We're in the parking lot across from the Greenwich Arts Council located at 299 Greenwich Avenue and we'll be here till early afternoon (around 1/2pm) or as long as we have the goods.

We've got a variety of flavors including Chocolate, Red Velvet, Vanilla, Lemon, Sweet Potato Pecan and a cool twist on the childhood classic neapolitan ice cream. Cause what's better than one cupcake flavor? Three flavors in one bit that's what. Ours has Red Velvet instead of Strawberry today so we're calling it the Neo Neapolitan but we only have a limited supply. So stop by early and get a snack for after lunch, a bribe for the boss or holiday dessert for the family. Hope to see you soon.

Monday, July 2, 2012

We'lll be back in Greenwich Tuesday.

Look for us on Greenwich Avenue around mid-morning but we'll post and Tweet our specific parking time and spot tomorrow morning. We'll have a variety of flavors and treats with us. So be sure to stop by and give them a try!

Happy Sunday!

The Cupcake Truck is not out today; we're gearing up for a surprise wedding later today. Congratulations in advance Mike and Donna A. We'd also like to thank Kate for inviting us back again this year to treat you and your guests. We hope you all enjoyed the cupcakes as much as we enjoyed baking for you.

We'll be out and about this coming week and will update you once our schedule is firmed up but you'll definitely find us at Rowayton Farmer's Market on Friday and making a guest appearance at Ashlawn Farm Market on Saturday.

WANT TO PLACE AN ORDER FOR PICKUP?
There's still time to place your July 4th order. We are accepting orders of 3 dozen or more for pickup at our bakery location in Westport. Just email us at baker@followthatcupcake.com and we'll coordinate the details with you directly including available flavors, pickup time and the rest

Stay cool, Truckers!
