A few things I need....

-Shirts made for this Summer
-more buttons for this Summer
-more patches for this Summer
and a table at sound and fury or for beartrap or pow to play so I can use some of their table space <3 :)

Also, I need a ride to California Uber Alles Fest if you can help me out that'd be radd. I got gas money and if I trusted my car I would go, but I don't know, I'm tempted so bad I just want to enjoy bands and get a few interviews for my documentary..
Anyways, I give you the COWlifornia
why cow? I don't know for some reason when I think of cream cheese I think of a cow and so this version of a cupcake I made with lemon cream cheese instead of a lemon buttercream and they were pretty yummy I also tried this new brand called Follow Your Heart, it wasn't bad. I manage to stop at one cupcake and my roommates ate the rest..ha.




(vegan friendly)





Maybe I'll introduce this cupcake at the show on Friday
Cherry Cola Cupcake...

Meet SammieCake (famous kid classic sandwich + cupcake)

Here it is.
A fairly new cupcake.
Who does not enjoy a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with bananas?
Well, if you don't, then maybe you should stop reading...now and if you do I have a special cupcake. Its a sammiecake get it? sandwich and cupcake? it made more sense before I said it.

if you have a better name let me know

Here its featured on a platter next to mint chocolate cupcakes and peanut butter bombs, and giant chocolate chip cookies
They were left last but people finally gave in and bought them I'm not sure what or how people reacted towards them, but I don't think one can go wrong with peanut butter..right? Unless you hate peanuts


Whole wheat cake, peanut butter, jelly, and caramelized bananas.
Eat. Your. Heart. Out.
or whatever

The Lady Gaga "Cherry Cherry BOOM BOOM!"

Fans of the gaga or just fans of cupcakes.
This is for you.

I will admit I've listened, jammed, and sang along to a few gaga songs. I'm not the crazy fan who will dress up like a condom or light bolt to prove I listen to her or "express" how I feel towards the world, but I listen to her.

While making this cupcake I didn't want it to look like shit piled on shit I wanted it to look cute, yummy, and delicious and the original name for it wasn't "the gaga" and my skills in the kitchen have improved. So I thought it would be fair to blog about this awesome cupcake again since it looks way better than the first time I've ever made it. So, I just had this song stuck in my head forever after spending a few days with one of my younger sisters, the 15 year old one, and hearing the words "Cherry cherry boom boom..." how ever else it goes constantly coming out of her mouth other than "whatever jan, shut up jan, omgah jan." and being schooled that it was a lady gaga song.

That is when it hit me
THE LADY GAGA!
"cherry cherry BOOM BOOM!"


(Chocolate cherry cake, cherry buttercream, cherry sauce, chocolate ganache)

HEY! HI! YO! HOLA!

I'm not dead the cupcake gods have not executed me...yet! I'm still alive!
But I will admit I've been lagging on this blog. Lagging hard. I apologize.

Personal problems have gotten in the way of that. I'm just getting back to 'normal' living. I won't bore you with all that, but just know that I will post a new cupcake picture in the next blog (later on today?)

For now, I've been getting so much support and orders its awesome.

As of Feb. 20th cupcakes at shows moved up to $1.00 ( I know, I know) .50 more isn't that bad! Its because ingredients for these bad babies are so so EXPENSIVE!! Of course they were before, but for some reason they risen up more than what I have in my pocket and have you seen gas prices lately? holy cup-cake! they are insane. And the bus now charges 1.25? really? Do I want to keep change in my pocket and who walks around with one damn quarter? not me! I rather walk around. What does this nation think we are robots? Oh, yeah, they do. I even higher the price for a dozen, not by much, I think a $1-1.50. Don't worry I'm sure I'm still the cheapest cupcake maker selling all this vegan gold to yall, so YOU WIN! WOOOOOO! Anyways, I just wanted to update this ghost town blogspot just in case someone anyone reads it and just assumed I was executed by the mighty cupcake gods. I'm still here. Destroying in kitchens and filling up those bellies.

Mo' cupcakes mo' muffies....

First of all let me say these two things only took me like less than two hours in the kitchen. Maybe I was too excited to try this out? or maybe I was just too excited on going into work at nine than at seven so as soon as my class let out I came home and ran into the kitchen and started. First batch of 'doughnut cupcakes' failed, this second batch, well, I don't know they look okay, I haven't actually tried them yet, so I'll have to come with another update....later. Red Velvet muffies? do I even have to explain. PERFECT. NAILED IT. AWESOME. AMAZING.



That's all.
I'll be in the kitchen all weekend. I have a baby shower and a few other orders for V-Day! So, look at these awesome pictures of the new muffie and the new doughnut cupcake that will get its own post.......later.





Alright then laterz,

CHECK CHECK 1, 2, 3 Cuatro!

Yo!
If you've been keeping up on this blog, facebook, or hanging out with me at home (which NONE of you have), you'll know that I introduced MUFFIES. I know why am I even putting that awful word on my blog, ew muffins? nope. Muffies! so, if you've been to panera bread you'll know that muffies are tops of muffins, less in calories, and a girls best friend (or lover), so with that being said, I messed around in the kitchen and discovered I don't need to spend money to enjoy the same exact thing with a plus its vegan friendly. Yup, I this is probably the most exciting news to be coming out of my kitchen since...........uhh I don't know since the last cupcake rant blog? maybe, but anyways, expect these bad babies at the next show and if you want to order a dozen I'll probably be selling them at $10.00, but I haven't mastered many flavors so far I've just mastered Pumpkin Spice, but want to mess around with red velvet, chocolate, chocolate chip and confetti before Feb. 14th so ya'll have more options or whatever.

On a personal note, I appreciate all the business and support. Again, I can't make enough cupcakes that can show this appreciation I have towards everyone whoever gave me honest feedback, supported me, tell me I should keep on, orders and all that awesome shit!

thanks, again, thanks!


Anyways, that's all for today.
More updates later.






OH YEAH!
I forgot! So I'm planning a trip to Seattle, WA in May and I might be picking up new Stay Sweet Cupcakes shirts (Judge) in Oregon and come home with memories and shirts, so if you missed out on the last ones, keep an eye out on this batch, because I am sure tons of people been wanting to get their hands on these and I've been nothing but talk, but since my sister brought it up I have no excuses! So, yay! and possibly a "friends press" maybe....

Hi!

Well, new year. No cupcake pictures to prove I made a that said cupcake, so I did? No one knows. I will keep it at that.

Anyways, that day when everyone thinks they have to be in love, in a relationship, or have a partner is coming up, yes Feb. 14th the day people dread the day people look forward to all year long.

I personally can care less about what ever day it is, well, unless its Halloween or Dia De Los Muertos, or baking up cupcakes count me in, but Valentines Day? Not a fan of.

So, with that being said, go ahead and order some cupcakes made by yours truly let me make your day special as you make mine by ordering and I will be happy baking for YOU! Whether you have a valentine or if you're alone cupcakes with another or without are perfect for the stomach! And don't get so cry baby on me about not having a valentine because I just want to BAKE CUPCAKES! :)

So, purchase a dozen or five for your parties, picnic, movie night, or whatever you plan on doing and I'm sure your day would be AMAZING with or without people! Especially if your munching on Stay Sweet Cupcakes. ;)

My attempt at a flier for this was a total failure. I tried so damn hard to do one and ended up making a really rad one on, well, I'm going to sound like a total idiot, but I made it in a word document. Laugh all you want, I did. Anyways, can't upload that shit, so here is the text, you don't get to see the amazing job I did, maybe I'll print it out and picture and post here, maybe...
