We are sure going to miss it. There’s nothing like making something from scratch one day, and selling it firsthand to friendly customers the next. If anyone out there is thinking of doing something similar, we would highly recommend it. Except for the part where you’re really tired all the time. ;^)

We are basically stopping all sales, so we’ll be closing down the order page of the site. The entire site will probably go dark sometime in the next week or so. (Update: We have since reversed this decision, and are now 110% focused on opening a shop somewhere in the West San Jose/Campbell area. We would also love to return to the Market, so keep your fingers crossed!)

A big THANK YOU to everyone who’s stopped by our booth over the last few months, and especially to all of you who have bought a cupcake or two from us. We’re going to miss you all a ton.

We will be on vacation (along with the rest of the Market) until the 7th of January. Hopefully we can come up with some new recipes worthy of our loyal customers. Thanks for a great 2006 everyone! And here’s hoping we can get everything together in time to open a full-fledged storefront in 2007.

Coconut Cream

Chocolate Peppermint

Burnt Almond

The Burnt Almond alone is a reason to come by!

We toughed out the rain with the hardcore shoppers today, and were rewarded with our second sell out. Nice. We did cut our stock a bit in anticipation of slim crowds, but it wasn’t too bad. More proof that Campbell has a solid, vibrant market. If you haven’t been, you should really check it out.

Be advised, the market is only open one more weekend this year (Sunday the 17th). So if you need to pick up something in person, that would be the time. But don’t forget, you can always special order. Freshly baked cupcakes are a perfect treat for a company or family holiday event. From 1 dozen, to dozens of dozens. We love to bake, and local delivery is free!

However, we will be taking special orders for delivery on and around those days. Just hit our order page to find out how.

Red Velvet • Lemon Sunshine • Coconut Cream

Red Velvet
Chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting and a sprinkle of green sparkling sugar.

Hope to see you there!

Maybe it was the fog. The Starbucks line was pretty short. Also, Banana, Mocha & Pumpkin might not be high on everyone’s list of favorites. We’ll have to chalk it up to the nature of rotating flavors — sometimes you hit a weak combo.

Whatever, here are some new photos.

The new canopy! Now we can play with the big kids. And it’s got walls!

The cups eagerly await their purchase.

And finally, the best outfit we saw today, bar none. I think the ladybug boots are what really make the outfit.

Remember, next week (Nov. 26), we will be taking the day off, so no cupcakes for you. Of course, you can always special order a dozen if you can’t wait.

See you Sunday!
