Hi Everyone,
Sorry I haven't been blogging. It's been really hectic lately and trying to update all of these social networks is insane! I am going to try to commit to adding a post once a week. But please don't hold me to it. Having a 5 month old son, being a wife and baker, makes my life pretty unpredictable....LOL
So here it goes, last Friday 10/1/10, we (Frosted Heaven Cupcakery) had our first event to sell cupcakes. It was the Eastvale Inaugural Celebration that was held at Eleanor Roosevelt HS. There was about 5,000-6,000 people in attendance. I didn't make too many cupcakes because I didn't know what to expect bring that there was going to be other food vendors there. We had 4 flavors: Red Velvet, Snickerdoodle, Banana Delight, and Chocolate Ganache. I had tremendous help from my husband, mom, grandma, sister & BF, sis-in-law, and nephew. We had a blast! I got to meet so many nice people that live in our community and really got my name out there. The event was a success! I hope that this is the start to many great things to come.
At the event, I had a raffle for a chance to win a prize of $250 in cupcakes or a cake. For every purchase, my customers received (1) raffle ticket to enter the drawing. The turnout was great! The winner of the raffle was Claudia B. It was exciting to call her. She was so surprised. She said she never wins anything. Claudia has until the end of the year to redeem her prize so when she does, I will make sure to post pics of what she selected.
So now that the event is behind us, I'm focusing on growing my business as much as possible. I'm also coordinating the Cupcake Camp Inland Empire event which is taking place on Sunday, November 7th at the Mission Inn Hotel & Spa in Riverside, CA. I'm so excited for this event. Raising money for a great cause, meeting fellow bakers, eating cupcakes, what more can you ask for?
Well that's all I have for now. Take care and God Bless!
