It has been soooooo long!

It has been a really long time since I wrote anything in my blog. I have been super busy with work and kids. BUT there are some changes in order, and I need help!
As you know, my cupcake business is named Sprinkles- Cupcakes and Cookies, but there is a Sprinkles Cupcakes already in existence. So as you can imagine I am under a change of name process, but can't come up with anything... This is where you come in!

Hello Everyone!

I want to thank everyone who took the time to enter my last giveaway, and congrats to AndreaH for winning.

Anyways.... my business mind is going back and forth. I have currently have no work the rest of this month, so I am concentrating on new ideas. Right now I have a Mother's Day special on my website, and you can order is ONLINE! I am working on shipping, so if you are out of state, no problem!

I will be releasing pictures of the new TWIX cupcake, since that was the clear winner. But in order to celebrate reaching 100 likes on facebook, I figured we should have another giveaway!

Enjoy!!!!

Thank You

Thanks to everyone who participates in my giveaway! There was a lot of support to my page and you really helped me with the road block I was sitting at. The winner of the giveaway was AndreaH. I have sent her an email, and she has 48 hours to reply. 

The new cupcake flavor is Twix! I am going to get a recipe together, and I will post the recipe and pictures. If you have taken a look at my website and are interested in something, but do not live in Des Moines, IA, that isn't a problem. We do send treats through the mail.

Well I hope you all will stop by from time to time. I will have more giveaways in the future!

Thanks everyone, now I'm going back to bed!

Having a hard time

I realized that I have been having a really hard time at work lately. I really enojy doing this on the side, therefore it is time to work on building an audience.
I released a new flavor this week called Banana Cream Pie, but I am having a hard time deciding what the next flavor will be.
The choices are between:

A Turtle Cupcake- a chocolate cake with pecans and a caramel center, topped with a buttercream frosting drizzled in caramel.

Twix cupcake- a milk chocolate cake with cookie crumb and a caramel center, topped with a buttercream frosting drizzled in caramel and sprinkled with cookie.

They are very similar, but will decide what direction to go in as far as release of new cupcakes!

Want to win a $10 gift card? Just enter below and tell me which flavor you are interested in!

The website is stil in process, but the facebook page is up and running. There will be contests and giveaways over time, so make sure to check back from time to time. Thanks for reading!
