Valentine’s Day

With Valentine’s Day only a mere 3 weeks away… you’d better get on it people! We’re going to make it really really easy for you this year, and you’re going to not only look completely organized for getting it done so early, but you’re going to do it with style! And I know this because my friends Leela and Alissa, of bright designlab, have an impeccable sense of style. We have teamed up with them to offer some classy gifts for the people you love. And we’re keeping it cheap. But we’re also giving you some not as cheap options, in case you are feeling like buying someone’s love, and we will not look down on you for that.

doesn't look like you went cheap

This stunning single rose in european wrap, with greenery, is only $6. Add a box of our own truffles (hazelnut, and raspberry) for $7 more, and you have covered both the flowers and chocolate bases for well under $20 (that’s $13, if you can’t find a calculator).

there were 4 truffles, but i ate one during the photo shoot

We will be doing free in-town bike delivery again this year, and you can add on our custom decorated sugar cookies as well. We will only have a limited number of extras on hand, so pre-ordering is highly encouraged. Call or drop by for more info, or see below for more options.

My 15 minutes of fame

The PCC catalog just came out, and my face is on the cover! I can’t tell you how weird it was to pull my mail out of my mailbox yesterday and find a giant picture of myself in there. Here it is:

i love you cupcakes

There is also a little article in the back of the catalog about how I started the bakery, and a great photo of my recently finished sleeve, by Jerry Ware of Atlas Tattoo. But the best thing about this picture is that John is in the background again. Last time I was in a magazine he was in the background, and now I’m starting to think he is sneaking into all my photos on purpose. The PCC classes were a lot of fun, and they are listed again in this Winter catalog for February. More info is here – PCC CLASSES

We made it through Thanksgiving week, and we’re really excited about all the great feedback we got about our pies this year. Thanks so much to everyone who bought one! We made well over 200 pies – I need to ask Katie what the exact number ended up at. Our oven got a real workout. Katie forgot her camera that day, so I had to take photos with my phone. Not as good.

can you tell which one is yours?

We’re getting ready for all of December’s holidays now, we’ll have rugelach and Star of David and dreidel sugar cookies for Hanukkah, and then Christmas themed stuff too. Leela, of Bright Designlab hung fresh wreaths and garlands in the bakery a couple of days ago, and it feels so cozy and wintery now! We are going to have a lot more packaged “to go” items for the holidays, so you can take stuff home to share with your families, and items to give as gifts. Drop by when you can, and see what’s new!
