The votes have been counted & verified...

and I can now announce the winner of our Guest Flavour of the Month (drum roll)

OREO!

So what does this mean for you? Well you can now order Oreo flavoured cupcakes until the 19th November. With Oreo cookies mixed into the sponge, topped with a vanilla or chocolate buttercream icing and finally a mini Oreo cookie on top. Sounds delicious huh?! Well hurry whilst they are here, the first person to place an order will receive 2 free cupcakes*

Thank you to all those who voted during USA month, we had a fantastic response. Look out for the next flavour of the month poll, which will appear later today.

* must be for an order of 10 cupcakes or more

So many orders, such little time!

Well it has been another busy week in the MLB kitchen! We've had christenings, birthdays and 'I Love You' orders.

The Christening cupcakes were a joint celebration for William, Joseph & Maeve. They went for a mix of pink, blue and cream topped with either a blossom flower or delicate butterfly. I've been told they were the talk of the christening, which is always nice to hear!

Then we had Elliot's 8th birthday and being a Spurs fan, what other cupcakes could he have but Tottenham Hotspur ones! We hope you had a wonderful birthday Elliot.

Lastly Lee decided to let Jane know how much he loved her - what a good boyfriend! So Jane was the lucky recipient of 12 vanilla cupcakes with pink icing and generously topped with lovehearts

You can see photos of all these orders to the right of the blog.

Where does the time go?

On Sunday 11th October my beautiful daughter turned 2!

Molly, that's where the business name comes from in case you were wondering, is my first child and my absolute pride & joy. She brings me so much happiness and another year has flown by but it's been a great 12 months.

Of course we had to mark this occasion with cupcakes (what else!) so thought I would show you a photo of them. The theme was Molly's Tea Party, we had bunting, polka dot balloons (courtsey of http://www.polkaparty.co.uk/) and mini sandwiches.

A lovely time was had by all and obviously everyone enjoyed the cupcakes ;o)

Creepy Cupcakes

in a good way of course!

Here at MLB we've been stirring our witches cauldron, throwing in the eye of a bat and the leg of a newt and came up with these beauties!

Well okay it didn't exactly happen like that. More like a mixing bowl with flour, sugar, eggs - you get the picture.

Throwing a bash this halloween or after some different treats for those brave enough to knock on your door? Then give Molly's Little Bakery a ring and order freshly made cupcakes, kids and adults alike will love them.

MLB xx

Coming Soon!

Here at Molly's Little Bakery we are always thinking of new ways to make cupcakes even more appealing to you.

One thing we've noticed is that most of our competitors offer a minimum order of 6 cupcakes, which isn't any good when you want just 1 cupcake. Perhaps you would like to wish someone luck, a Merry Christmas or just let them know you care.

Available from 1st November 2009 - 3rd January 2010, your cupcake will be individually boxed, wrapped with a ribbon and a giftcard with a message of your choice. Watch out for photos coming soon. These will be available again in 2010 so keep checking our blog for updates.

Another thing we don't do at MLB is limit your choice of decoration, after all it's your cupcake so you should get the final say! We offer flat icing, swirls, coloured, plain, sprinkles or toppers. You can have big swirls or little swirls, lots of icing or not so much. The choices are endless and it's all part of the fun.

So give us a call or drop us an email and we'll help make your cupcake dreams come true!

Tastes from around the World

Here at Molly's Little Bakery we like to keep things exciting. So we've come up with this idea, a 'Guest' flavour, from a different country around the world, every month and YOU get to decide the winner!

All you have to do is get onto our blog and click your favourite. It really is that easy.

The winning flavour will then feature for a month alongside our other delicious flavours; Vanilla, Chocolate, Lemon & Coconut.

This month it's the good old US of A. What are you waiting for, get voting.

MLB xx

And the winner is (drum roll please)...

Lucy Lillitou who suggested Coconut Sponge as the new flavour to be added alongside the regulars of Vanilla, Lemon & Chocolate.

For all of Lucy's hard work, she will be rewarded with 6 cupcakes in the winning flavour!

We had a great response to the competition so thank you to each and everyone who took time to let us know what they thought would make a great flavour cupcake.

Coconut sponge cupcakes will be available to purchase from the weekend, so what are you waiting for?!

HAPPY NATIONAL CUPCAKE WEEK!

Yes even cupcakes have their very own 'week' nowadays and why not, they are little bits of heaven after all!

Why not celebrate this wonderful occasion with a box of freshley baked homemade cupcakes, topped with buttercream icing and decorated however you wish.

Mention our blog and we'll offer you a 5% discount*

MLB xx

* The 5% discount is available on a minumum order of 6 cupcakes only

Fancy something a little different?

Love cupcakes but aren't so keen on buttercream icing? Then why not try Molly's Little Bakery carrot cake cupcakes (try saying that after a few drinks!).

They are packed with juicy raisins, spices and of course carrot and drizzled with an orange icing. And these little beauties are kinder on the hips than cakes with buttercream icing.

For a limited time only, get in whilst their hot!

Delights from the Midlands

My very good friend Kerry runs her own successful cupcake company, located in the Midlands.

If you've come across my blog and thought mmmmm they look delicious but I live too far away (cue sad face :o() then take a look at Cupcakes & Peonies, they are also homemade & decorated to meet your requirements. Not only do C&P make cupcakes but also cookies. So 2 great reasons to check them out!

Want to solve that age old problem...

...of avoiding a big sticky mess at childrens birthday parties? Well we have the solution!

Order fresh, homemade cupcakes to help your little one celebrate their special day and all you have to do is give each guest their own individual cupcake! No cutting required, which means no sharp knives around. Just pop them into their party bags and make them feel very grown up.

Please contact us if your son, daughter, nephew or grandchild has a forthcoming birthday. Molly's Little Bakery would love to be a part of it and we can discuss any flavour sponge, colour icing and sprinkles that will match your theme.

MLB xx

...and relax!

Well it's been a busy few days for MLB, I've had several different orders. A batch of vanilla cupcakes with vanilla buttercream icing for my daughters nursery as she's just moved up to the toddler room and I wanted to thank the baby room staff for all their hard work in looking after our little one so very well. I hope you enjoy the cakes girls!

My next door neighbour ordered a batch to send to her mum, just to let her know she loved her! What a thoughtful daughter. Hope you enjoyed your chocolate cupcakes Sue.

Finally some more chocolate cupcakes sprinkled with pretty little stars for Jane, who was throwing a last minute jewellery party for her friends. What's better than cupcakes, champagne and girlie chat?!

Until next time...

Baby Boom!

I threw a surprise baby shower for my good friend Janet on sunday and decided that cupcakes were a must!

I made chocolate and vanilla ones. The vanilla cupcakes were iced in pink and blue buttercream (what else?!) and the chocolate lot with a rich chocolate buttercream frosting. I must say they disappeared from the table very quickly!!

So the best of luck for the last week of your pregnancy Janet, I hope baby 3 makes an appearance very soon.
