"Inglourious" Cupcakes

We had a little bit of fun with Seamus' left over birthday cupcakes. We spelled: Hire Me, Bastards. But since we were putting them in 6-packs to share with co-workers the next day, we had to cut it down to six letters.

It spawned laughter and a philosophical conversation regarding Quentin Tarantino's latest flick: Inglourious Basterds. It's one of his best films, if you ask me. And I don't mind the creative ending. Brad Pitt performed his part well, and I was glad the film wasn't all about him. The guy who made the movie what it is is the actor who played Hans Landa. A Nazi who is suave, urbane, cultured, and multilingual, he could have chosen to do a variety of things, but here he was, a "Jew Hunter." Hope he gets nominated and wins an Academy for his performance. Anyways, I digress! Enjoy these Inglourious cupcakes!

Birthday Cupcakes!

Isata celebrated her 30th birthday on October 10th at the Empire Lounge with friends and with Cupcaketionery cupcakes. Thank you, Isata, for giving us the privilege of being a part of your celebration!

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough hope to make you happy, and enough money to buy a house in Rosedale!

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY, SEAMUS!

Seamus celebrated his 1st birthday on October 4th with cupcakes, of course! Beautiful and delicious Double Decadence and Madagascar were his choice flavours. He ended up trying Madagascar for the first time ever, and here are the photos to show how our budding cupcake aficionado demolished his first cupcake!

 

Contrary to what you folks say, I can have my cupcake and eat it, too!

Hmmm, what's this?

I'm gonna give it a try.

Yummy!

Squishy and yummy...just how I like it!

Tastes like...agave nectar. Yes, that's it! Agave Nectar!

 

Ooh, it's soooo good! Can I have seconds?

OK, Mom. I'll finish this one first...

All gone! Now where's the Double Decadence?

Cupcaketionery at the Crooked Star on Ossington

We're very proud to have been a part of Gail & Jason's Baby Shower at the Crooked Star on Ossington last Sunday, August 30th. Cool joint. Hip folks. Love the vibe. Here are our cupcakes on 2 silver tiers: Double Decadence, Simply Carrot, and Anti-Oxi. Congratulations to Gail & Jason!

SHOWSTOPPERS!

If I were a man, I wouldn't wear anything else but the creations of British Fashion Designer, Sir Paul Smith. His designs encompass the classic and the quirky, all beautiful pieces that afford a fashionably confident guy a sense of fun, without sacrificing a sense of style.

See below the Paul Smith Men's Multi-Stripe sock that inspired the cupcakes for Sir Paul Smith's namesake in Toronto: Paul Edward Smith who celebrated his birthday with friends on September 19th.

Underneath the beautiful exterior are rich flavours: Double Decadence (Chocolate Cake + Dark Chocolate Ganache) and what we fondly call Maddie (Madagascar: Vanilla Nectar Cake + Dark Chocolate Ganache). As we were featuring our organic fair trade chocolate in this particular project, we didn't top Maddie with her partner,Vanilla Bean Frosting.

Don't even ask how long it took to fashion these couture cupcakes from design concept to execution to placing them at the party venue to be oohed and aahhed over. It hurts me to remember! But seriously, lots of planning and time went into making these babies, as well as labour and most of all, L-O-V-E.
