Kupcakery in Cabbagetown=Amazing!

I had a blast doing a cupcake sale in Cabbagetown, with much thanks to my friend Kate and her family for giving me a space to operate, and kindly ferrying me and my 10 dozen(!) cupcakes across town last saturday. It was a huge success, with every last cake sold, and loads of positive feedback.
The only downside of the day (well, aside from the fact that i got a bit of sunstroke from standing out in the heat all day)was that my camera's battery died, so I didn't get any photos myself. However, a few different people took pictures and my card with promises to share later. The photo at left is from David O, and I thank him very much, especially because it's lovely!
I ended up with seven flavours on offer, and the first to sell out was the one I just invented and least expected--Lumberjack's Breakfast. It's a coffee-flavoured cake with real maple syrup buttercream...and "bacon" bits. I really wanted to try a vegan spin on the "bacon on everything" craze that's been sweeping the omnivore food scene, and it came off better than i could have hoped, with a sweet/salty/soft/crunchy combo that...um...may make me gain a few pounds, and happily.
A huge number of people have asked where my shop is located...if you're one of them, for the time being, it is located right here. All my cakes are small batch baked in my home, until such time as I can command enough of a following to open up a wee shop of my own. JUst call or email, and I'm at your cupcake command!

Cowanation Picture Post

Spiderman takes a break from saving the city and eats cupcakes.
"smile everybo---ooh! Is that cupcake for me???"
This kid's parents do not approve of his toothbrushing technique.
I am so glad I went and got one of these cupcake display rack-thingies.
She ate the top off this kebab so fast that i seriously have no idea when it happened.
Coo-Coo for Coconuts. I had no idea people liked coconut so much, or a would have made an extra dozen.
The girl on the right came back three times. Also, I dig her hat.
I think he liked it. His mouth was a bit full, so all i really heards was "diff murff iff muRRf rurf."
PB&J. The lighting is lousy, but they tasted amazing.
Kupcake-Ka-Bobs! Woo hoo! Proof that everything is better when you put it on a stick.
Look at all the adorable cupcake eaters at my cupcake sale!
These chicks rock. Especially the one on the right, she's very serious about her cupcakes.
Classic Vanilla and Chocolate Cupcakes. And my vintage piggy bank to hold my change and survey the lay of the land.
The set-up. Before i even managed to take any pictures, almost a dozen cupcakes were gone! That's why there are only 3 Coo-Coo for Coconuts at the front left of the table.

Doesn't that look like fun? The actual post about the 14th annual Cowanation event is below!
