Helloooooo is anyone there??

First of all I would like to apologise for my distinct lack of updating this blog, it has been a very busy 2012 for me as I've continued with my Cupcake Workshops, cupcake orders and I now offer 'big' cakes!

Throw into the mix a 5 year old daughter and another job in London - I barely have the time to breathe!

I hope all of my lovely followers are still tracking our progress  via our Twitter and Facebook pages, these are regularly updated with offers, exciting news, photos, etc.

For those of you who aren't (and why not?!) I will be uploading lots of photos this evening to the blog and will do my best to keep this site up to date.

Thank you for sticking with me and I hope to entice a few new followers/customers for 2013.


Lots of love,

Rosalyn

MINNIE MOUSE CUPCAKES

One of our loyal customers, Lucinda, spoke to us back in January with regards to cupcakes for her daughter Ruby's upcoming 21st Birthday.

Ruby is mad on Minnie Mouse and she told her mum it was the only thing she wanted on her cupcakes! Lucinda and I discussed several different design options and the end result was these:

Being huge Minnie Mouse fans ourselves we were so excited to get this order and it was a nice change from making flowers!

If you would like to order a gift box for your own special occasion then please get in contact with us info@mollyslittlebakery.co.uk or 07905 848 080
