Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Are all of your cupcakes , savories and baked goods made from scratch?
A. Yes! We only use the finest and freshest ingredients available. Real butter, Madagascar Vanilla and whole milk are examples of products used in our goods.

Q. How should I store my cupcakes and baked goods ?
A. Because we use no preservatives it is best to keep your cupcakes at room temperature. If, for some reason I can’t imagine, you have any cupcakes left, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Remember all foods are perishable and are best when consumed as soon as possible.

Q. Do you have any cupcakes or treats for people with nut allergies?
A. That depends… I do use peanuts in a lot of my baking but shy away from tree nuts as I am allergic to them. I can not guarantee there will be no trace of nuts in my products as I work out of a commercial kitchen with several other bakers.

A. Yes! I would like a two week notice minimum so that we can tweak the design and I can get  any special decorations or ingredients.
