Toot Sweet Cupcakes & More

Posted by on Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

Toot Sweet is Austin’s newest urban bakery experience. Our oversized gourmet cupcakes are the talk of the town!

Our desserts are made with top-quality ingredients including organic and all-natural ingredients. We use only the finest European chocolates for an opulent not bitter taste. Sweet cream butter gives our butter-cream frostings a delicately smooth texture and a light yummy flavor.

Our dessets are derived from traditional, classic recipes. Like the kind you might have had when you were a kid! We’ve updated these traditional flavors to reflect a growing cultural interest in diverse flavor sensations. So our chocolate is nostalgic and neat at the same time. Our butter cake harkens back to the real butter cake grandma used to make for the holidays.

Our treats are made especially for you and delivered to your door the same day! From weddings, birthdays, black tie, brunch, dinner, business or school luncheon we offer beautiful and tasteful presentations.

Toot Sweet is a joint effort between Tiffany Bacon and Brian Bacon, married fourteen years with six wonderful children.

Our bakery is located behind the North Hayes County Volunteer Fire Department in the Firehouse Business Center! Pickup is available when scheduled at 14121 Hwy 290 W, Suite 3B, Austin, TX 78737.

Wish-Cake Custom Cupcake & Delivery

Posted by on Thursday, November 13th, 2008

Make a Wish!
Birthdays mean smiles, laughter, presents, balloons, games, and parties. For busy parents, birthdays also mean baking or buying and transporting (via the bus, the sidewalk or your car) enough sweets for a classroom full of children (without a sprinkle out of place)! These hassles are the last thing some parents need or want to worry about. Don’t you wish you could enjoy the fun, too? Now you can!

Our original mission was to help busy working moms, but we’ve been surprised by the number of parents who request a cupcake delivery to their college-aged students. We are a ServSafe certified, fully incorporated business – and we deliver our cupcakes fresh (but only within the Philadelphia area right now).

Enjoy! Wish-Cake

Sell Us on Cupcakes and We’ll Give You This Ridiculously Cute Shirt

The person who e-mails us at Grub Street or comments with the most convincing argument — the sort of argument that makes us bring in a box to the office and send out an e-mail saying “Cupcakes!!!!!” — will win the Magnolia Bakery T-shirt you see here (size large, $22 value). Just don’t send us photos of your Halloween cupcakes. Just don’t send us photos of your Halloween cupcakes. We’ll announce the winner at the end of the day tomorrow.

Update:

After calling on you to convert us to cupcakes, we’ve received a dizzying (like, sugar-high dizzying!) amount of responses. We’d like to digest this information slowly, lest queasiness and self-loathing ensue. So we’re going to keep taking entries over the weekend and will announce the winner first-thing Monday.

Good luck!

Political Candidate Cookies and cupcakes are a hot item with people as the elections close in.
 
Los Angeles, CA—(BUSINESS WIRE)– It’s all about sugar, spice…and politics. For Presidential candidates McCain and Obama, cookies and cupcakes in the Mrs. Beasley’s Cupcake/Cookies Bite Me Poll are helping to gauge who is more popular.

Cupcakes….yum!

Posted by on Monday, October 20th, 2008

This is a photo of the three cupcakes I ordered for my bff and I. There was a puppy painted on our table. :)

This weekend my best friend and I were working on our halloween costumes (I am going to be a ladybug), and decided we wanted a sweet treat to eat. So we went to this place I recently found out about called Muddy’s Bake Shop. (It happens to be right around the corner from my best friend’s work). I was in a fruity kind of mood so I ordered a Pucker Up (sweet and tart lemon cupcake with lemon icing) and a Strawberry Fields Forever (strawberry cake with strawberry icing) cupcake for myself & bff. They were both so yummy! We had to get her fiance a few cupcakes as well…we ordered him a few cupcakes to go. He LOVED them too! I introduced myself to Kat the owner and I thought she was totally adorable! She had bubblegum pink hair! I can not wait to go back there and try the rest of their cupcake menu!

If you are ever in Memphis, TN I highly recommend stopping by Muddy’s Bake Shop.
