THE BRIDE, THE GROOM, THE VOWS...THE CUPCAKES!!!



I know that it has been quite some time since my last blog post. I have been soaking up the little time that I have left on maternity leave to spend with my son before returning to work in January. I have been baking, just not finding the time to post as much as before.

This post is one that I have been waiting to write and post on this blog for quite some time! With baking for weddings, most wouldn't think of the time that lingers between the actual wedding day and the delivery of pictures! The wait is AGONIZING...and I'm not even the Bride!!!

I prefer waiting for the pictures from the actual event so that my readers can see the cupcakes in all their GLORY! Perched up on the stand, surrounded by other sweets, looking so delicious and glamorous!

This wedding was no exception! The ceremony, quaint and rustic, took place at the family cottage and the reception was held at Regatta Steak and Seafood Grille at the Muskoka Wharf in Gravenhurst. In talking with the Bride, she was describing the wedding theme and colours. She mentioned that there will be a lot of natural elements brought into the reception to mimic the ceremony and reflect the surroundings of cottage country.

 In choosing the cupcake flavors, a mutual friend, whom attended the first wedding that got this blog started...strongly suggested the Lemon Berry Licious! And how can I blame her? they are a favorite of mine too - so summery and refreshing! The bride and I also thought something with chocolate was in order! Who can resist the Chocolate/Peanut butter combo? Me either!!! So, Curious George was invited to the wedding, and we finished it off with a simple Vanilla cupcake topped with Vanilla buttercream.

K and T, Congrats to both of you! I Wish you Happiness, Laughter and Love forever and ever!!!
