More halloween Treats!

Yes, i am already in full-on Halloween mode.  Here are a few of my Halloween Cupfakes for sale in my Etsy shop :)

This is a three piece set

Business has been good!  I am so grateful for people's interest, although I DO wish more folks would but the ones ALREADY MADE hanging out in my etsy shop right now lol!

At a shop near you!

Good news for my Staten Island area pals!  You can now buy my cupfakes at Checkerbells 643 Forrest Avenue Staten Island!

FRIDAY CUPFAKE OF THE DAY!!!!

This shimmering beauty is actually part of a four piece set I made for a little girls birthday party.  Her mom wanted a table centerpiece for her cupcake themed party, and I think this is going to be a hit!

The Cakery Fakery Party Favors

OK, so although I love to create custome cupfakes one at a time depending on my mood, I really want to get the party favor aspect of my business off the ground. 

1) My cupfakes make great party favors.  People will talk about them, and I'm sure they have enough wine bottle stoppers, tiny picture frames, and bottle openers to last a lifetime.  How many cupfakes do you think they have?  None, I'm sure of it. 

2)  A cupfake is probably not the kind of party favor that will be tossed aside, lost or thrown away.  It is truly a keepsake!

3)  I can custom make them to your specifications.  You can choose colors, themes, decorations etc...  They will be YOUR creation for YOUR event!

4)  Party favors are not just for weddings and showers.  Guests will love having a take-away gift from a Summer BBQ, Halloween Party, Christmas party, birthday party, bachelorette party, you name it. 

5) You don't have to have a huge guest list to order my cupfake favors!  Having a party of five? Ten? It really doesn't matter, I can make favors for events big and small

6) Budget concerns?  I not only make standard life sized cupfakes, I make little minis too! Which obviously would cost less for you.

So if you think you'd like some cupfakes for your next event's favors, just email me at cakeryfakery@yahoo.com.  We can talk about your party, what you need, what your budget is, etc etc.  I would also be glad to show you pics of my work. 

Thanks!

Cupfake of the Day

Every now and then I get inspiration to make truly personalized cupfakes.  Today's cupfake is the Pearl Jam cupfake made for my sister, possibly the world's biggest pearl jam fan!  I have to admit its not as nice as many of my others, but Pearl Jam is a grungy bunch, so here it is! lol

Notice the little pearl next to the polymer clay jar of jam!  Ten is their first album which is also my personal favorite.  The little man you see is the iconic Pearl Jam stick figure logo!

I'm Back!

Well, I am still recovering from surgery.  Its been a long 9 days so far.   In the last 9 days I have only been able to make ONE cupfake, so I'm in a little bit of cupfake withdrawal.   But here it is....

This was actually my first happy Birthday cupfake.  A rush was put on it, but she still has not come to get it.  Go figure.

Happy Friday everyone!  Hope you have something SWEET in mind this weekend!  these should get you started!

Happy anniversary Wizard of Oz!

So its one of my favorite movies!  I've created a special Wizard of Oz cupfake SET!

Here it is:

Dorothy cupfake is represented by the signature blue gingham pattern "dress".  the glittery red frosting represents her ruby red slippers.  And it is accentuated with little red poppies!

here is The Tin Man:

Wrapped in a silver foil cupcake wrapper, painted a metallic silver, this cupcake features the one thing The Tin Man longed for, a heart

Here is the Lion:

I had a tough time trying to interpret the lion with a cupcake.  So i made him lion-type colors with glittery gold flecks to represent his furryness, and I included faux silver and topaz medallions to represent the medal of courage given to him by the great and powerful Oz!

Here is the Scarecrow:

Here, the yellow frosting represents the yellow brick road, where Dorothy began her trip and encountered her first companion. I tried to recreate the scene by including some corn stalks and other scare-crowy things lol! He also has a little diploma that was given to him by the Wizard himself!

Hope you like them!

Fake Cupcake of the Day!

Its a grey day outside today, breezy and cooler than it has been in ages.  This kind of weather really has me yearning for some fall activities!  Making s',ores being one of them!  So please enjoy today's cupfake.  Its my interpretation of a s'mores cupcake.  If this were a real cupcake, it would probably be pretty messy, but thats the fun of s'mores anyway!

Happy Hump Day, Have A Cupfake!

Uniquely Sweet!

In keeping with my obsession with faux cupcakes, I found another Etsy shop that truly deserves mention here.

These polymer clay treats come to you from Cuddlebugeeshie.  You can view her shop right here:
http://www.etsy.com/shop/cuddlebugeeshi

These would make fabulous little gifts for the cupcake lover in your life?  Or perhaps you're own jewelry box needs a little sweetening?  I love that they are whimsical and look so real! I think I may get some for myself and put them on when I am making my cupfakes to really put me in the cupcake makin' mood!  Stop taking life so seriously, and throw on some of this 100% handmade jewelry and I bet your mood and creative spirits will be lifted!

Hey, if you own a bakery, I think you should make these part of your staff's uniform!   Creative and colorful, I think you guys will love them!  Show her your sweet side and go take a look at her Etsy shop!

Incredible Polymer Clay Cupcake Creations!

Other than making my cupfakes, I have interests in other types of crafts.  One thing I am really starting to appreciate is polymer clay.

I just spent over an hour browsing through this Etsy seller's store, Bead Passion.  It is incredible!  The most adorable cupcake jewelry made out of polymer clay! Charms, earrings, bracelets, its all there.  Its colorful, whimsical and FUN!  take a look at just some of the things she has goin' on over there!

I really love this black and white one!  Tres cupcake chic! Keep in mind these creations are teensy tiny, so a lot of work must go into each one of them! I think they are ADORABLE!  I cannot resist them! Here is the link to visit and take a look for yourself!

TGIF?? And Cupfake of the day!

I actually had dreams last night about my cupfakes.  Believe it.  I think I might actually have an idea to help make them look a little different.  may take more time to create it, but it might just be worth it.  I have a lot of cupfake business to take care of today for sure.

Another day, another cupfake!

Fake Cupcake of the Day!

I call this one Good Mornin' Sunshine!  I thought this would be the perfect cupfake for ANY kitchen decor. its fun and bright and it has real doll house miniature decorations.  I love the little wire whisk.  The egg inside the pan was made by me out of polymer clay and I glued it onto the pan.   This cupfake just reminds me of a nice sunny morning. 

OK, here's the article about my Cupfakes!
