Some love the 3D tiaras, some want animal print from top to bottom, while others prefer understated stripes. But above everything else, they ALL want pink!

Take a look at some of the cakes and cupcakes we have done in the past and give us a ring if we can help design something for your prince or princess! 919.821.4223

This princess put herself at the top!

Cotton candy stripes are so darling.

This princess covered ALL the bases: animal print, cupcakes, and a tiara!

Some princesses are of the Disney variety.

We can even design something for your little prince! This baby boy shower cake was encrusted in jewels.

Cupcakes are perfect for little princesses!

And finally, the cake that started it all: The Deluxe Princess cake always inspires other customers!

The above words could not be more true. Mothers are the one person in our lives who love us unconditionally, cheer us on, and are a shoulder to lean on. And the greatest thing about mothers is that even though there are mothers all over the world, yours is the best one!

We have everything you need to help celebrate her and show her how much she is loved, including Parisian-style macarons and a champagne and orange infused Mimosa cupcake!

It can be easy to fall into a rut when it comes to Mother’s Day gifts. Flowers and chocolate are the usual “go to”, but why not opt for something completely customized and special? Is she an avid gardener, a world traveler, or queen of The Book Club? Tell us and our staff can help you design the perfect cake or cupcakes.

regular cupcakes $3 each plus decor.

The boy and girl each got their own special cupcake decked out with a pony and a monogrammed ribbon and the rest of the cupcakes were topped with pretty, pink roses.  Mr. Navey is a photography editor at Always Autumn studios and snapped these beautiful photographs of the cupcakes at the party and was kind enough to share them with us, along with some very kind words! Seeing these pictures and reading his email just made our week, maybe even month! Read what he had to say below:

“Thank you SO MUCH for the wonderful job you did with our cupcakes!!!  You and your staff were AMAZING!!!  I expected that they would taste great and that they would look good too, but having them in person made it even more exciting for us.  Everyone at the party LOVED them and wanted to touch them because of the wonderful detail work.  My son, who turned 3, was literally shaking with excitement when he saw them.  He asked me for an hour when he could finally have a cupcake!  Thank you for helping to make this party such a special day for our family and our children! Thank you again for everything!  I’m sure we’ll be back in the shop for a date with our kids!”

This order quickly became a staff favorite that weekend, and so did the Naveys! It was our absolute pleasure to be involved in this memorable party and we can’t wait to see them in the shoppe sometime soon!

“I truly hit the jackpot by finding this cupcake heaven! I wanted cupcakes for my little girl’s first communion because she loves cupcakes. Everyone I dealt with at The Cupcake Shoppe worked so amazingly to help design the perfect top for these delicious cupcakes making them not only delicious but beautiful as well! Everyone was so impressed. Thank you Lizzie for all your help and Sara for being so nice when I picked them up! I will be back for a treat, and for all my cakes and cupcakes. I’ve also been spreading the word of how great this little shoppe of heaven is! Your place ROCKS!! Keep up the amazing work!”

There are six different gift packages depending on how big of a celebration you are planning. The “Sweet and Simple” is perfect for an intimate evening for two, while the “Sweet Celebration” will really get your party started with six bottles of wine and four large boxes of desserts!

The wines that are featured in each package have been expertly chosen by the staff at The Wine Feed to complement and enhance the assorted desserts that we offer. The first is Moscato D’Asti, a white Italian dessert wine with hints of white fruit, citrus fruit, honey flavors and effervescent bubbles. This wine makes a perfect pairing with our lemon bar or Pretty in Pink cupcake! The other featured wine is the Brachetto d’Acqui, a wonderful red with fruit and floral notes. A double chocolate brownie or Brown Betty cupcake is a natural pairing with this wine, bringing to mind chocolate covered cherries or strawberries!
An additional dessert we add to the Valentine’s Day gift packages are assorted truffles that are made in-house. Special order your gift package before February 9th to receive these little beauties!

And did we mention that the gift packages can be delivered and shipped? Now you have every reason to order a gift package for somebody special!
