A look back.......

A little reflection on 2011.......
This was a major year for James and The Giant Cupcake. So many wonderful changes for the company, we moved into our very own cupcake shop and have shared so many wonderful experiences with customers, old and new. We couldn't be any happier and there are so many exciting things to look forward to in 2012. Here are a few great memories from our last month of 2011 at the shop~

One of our top selling cupcakes, 'Molly Ringwald'. Strawberry cupcakes topped with vanilla bean buttercream frosting and dipped in hot pink sprinkles....it's amazing, trust me I've devoured plenty of these babies, mmmmm!

We created a winter cupcake called ' Jack Frost' which literally flew off the cupcake stands in December so we're keeping it around all winter long. What is in this scrumptous cupcake? Chocolate cupcake filled with mini chocolate chips and cream cheese, topped with sky blue cream cheese frosting and snowflake sprinkles~

~Thanks for a great year! We'll see you at the shop in 2012~

RAW Awards in San Francisco

These pictures are from the RAW Awards we catered at 111 Minna street art gallery. The art was absolutely amazing and jam packed with seriously fabulous fashionistas , alluring belly dancers to giant copper horses. I had a blast, it's always fun to bring some Oakland cupcake love to the city.
