Cupcrazed on Wilson’s World

This is Cupcrazed’s 2nd year participating in the Charlotte “Sweet Tooth Festival”.

Each of the vendors participating in this event are aiding to fund raise for the Charlotte RAIN organization. I get asked for donations, participation, hand outs, freebees, and all kinds of shit every day, all day long. But not only do I love the people who put this event on, the cause is always a great one. The best part about being a small business owner? I get to choose who I give our money to. And trust me, cupcakes don’t make me much. But when I do something with my name, product and my time, you can bet it’s for a damn good reason. Everyone at this event had something wonderful for 300 guests- (that’s a LOT y’all) and these guest are not only there for goodies, but to support a wonderful organization.

Below is the link to our FOX News Rising Spot on Wilson’s World. I am amused that his coworkers thought I made him nervous. Which I may have, as I’m typically unpredictably inappropriate…..and thanks to Steve at Black Lion for thinking we were funny and not ridiculous. (I hope.)

5:30 am, like a boss.

And thanks to Rachel, who chose us to be morning entertainment. ;) I love you as much as I love sushi, and that’s A LOT!

The event was fabulous of course, and I cannot wait to attend again next year. This is what we brought this year. Taste the rainbow!

Cupcake Wars Champion Episode Loser.

Our episode was the Champions Season Premiere….and when they announced that our theme would be Spiderman, I was positive I would suck majorly. The only thing I knew about Spiderman on Broadway was the fact it was eight hundred bazillion dollars to create.

Here’s the write up our paper did http://www.fortmilltimes.com/2012/05/08/2003350/fort-mill-cupcake-shop-competes.html

Deb and I in the Green Room, before going on tv and sucking.

What sucks the most about losing is the fact that these cupcakes are pretty amazing. (ask our customers, we’ve sinced made them and they’re crazy popular!) In round one, it was a pain in the ass to get all 5 ingredients into a cake (kale? COME ON) but we did it, and they were actually good. We TASTE them to make sure. If it sucked, I’d toss them in the garbage instead of being ripped to shreds for my baking.

But Round 2? Ugh. We royally screwed up one flavor, but the other 2 were awesome. Where we fell short the hardest was our decorations. Honestly, when you look across the kitchen and see someone (Lily) kicking your ass with fondant while you’re still fumbling around melting chocolate because you’re running out of time? You’re done. Deb and I were like, “well, we could do the dishes and clean up…”

So yeah, we knew mid-way through round 2 we wouldn’t go any farther. And we were totally okay with it. After getting booted, we headed to Beverly Hills and ate at Real Housewives of BH, Lisa Vanderpump’s restaurant Villa Blanca. To make it more ironic, her dessert menu has green tea and raspberry tiramisu.

The cupcake that bit us hardest? Our matcha green tea and raspberry.

We celebrated our loss by making that tiramisu our bitch.
