Got super busy yesterday with all that comes with a Tuesday. Making all the new cupcake flavors, as well as our normal ones, and the baking we do every morning and Hersheys dropped off our order but I couldn’t get the inserts out until I scraped the ice cream cases. Then UPS dropped off our coffee order right before our amazing coffee tech came to service the espresso machine!! With all that we managed to stock the cases and have Maple Bacon, Orange Dream, Death by Chocolate, and Lemon Blueberry for specialty cupcakes. This is why I didn’t get them posted yesterday. 🤪 Cupcakes are Buy 3 Get 1 FREE today. We also brought back the Nutter Butter Bar as it was a fan favorite. All your favorites are stocked up so come see us!!!!

Another solid week at 31 N. College Avenue!! I’m feeling a little extra Blessed recently. With all of the hard work our City officials City of Newton, NC Government have put in to downtown, my amazing website developer The Kanso creative, and all of our amazing neighbors (blessed with so many), my amazing team, and incredible word of mouth from you amazing customers, I’m so incredibly humbled and grateful to call this little town home!!!! What I felt was a slow week turned out a lot more busy but I love that!!!!! So excited for all of it!!

So much going on this weekend!! We delivered the groom’s cake of the stadium (at least 100 lbs) to Kidd Brewer Stadium, then off to Hidden Hill. That’s a lot of mountains to drive with a cake for such a special occasion. Then went back to Boone Saturday for the wedding delivery. Thankful to the ladies here for helping make it all possible and holding down the fort while I was running all over!! My nervous system can take a week off now. Or can it?!?! 🤔🤪

What a week is all I can say!! All
the Senior activities for my favorite girl mixed in with all the orders we had. Here’s what we managed to snap pics of before they went out the door!!! I think my favorite this week is the one of the Discovery graduate in her cap and gown…🥰 (you’ve more than likely seen my daughter behind the counter at some point) but Autumn did a fantastic job this week with the nursing school graduate made out of modeling chocolate!! I wish we would have got more pictures to share of everything that came out of the back this week!! These ladies are all so talented!!!! I am so blessed to have them as my team!!!!!

It’s been so crazy lately my social media manager (me 🤪) took a bit of a hiatus lately. Now that we are done with Senior year I might (might) have more time with posts!!!!

Cupcake flavors this week are Cherry Lemon Sundrop, Peanut Butter Delight, Chai Latte, and Oatmeal cookie. Wednesdays are always buy 3 get 1 FREE so stop by and see us!!!!
