A Newsies Version of a Cake

03.17.10

We had the pleasure of crafting up a cake for a great customer who works in the news industry recently. As a former newsie myslef this was an especially cool one to see. After all, what self-respecting newspaper(wo)man doesn’t like coffee, donuts and to see their name in print?

St. Patrick’s Day Cupcakes

03.11.10

Here’s a breakdown of the St. Patrick’s Day Cupcakes we’re rocking this year. The Irish Coffee (amazing espresso-soaked cake topped with a healthy amount of whiskey — you can surely taste the goodness in there) is a must-try and brand new this year. The Beer Cake (stout beer in the cake and icing) we have been doing for a while now is available now as “Green Beer.” And our legendary Car Bomb (chocolate stout cake with Baily’s and Jameson’s icing) cupcake is making it’s triumphant return for the third year in a row!

These cupcakes will be available daily while supplies last until next Wednesday. Call ahead to pre-order for St. Paddy’s as we will sell out during they day. The Car Bomb Cupcake is hard to resist at this time of year…

A Supernice Review of Tee & Cakes

Tee & Cakes – my FAVORITE cupcakes in the whole wide world

Thanks for stopping by my Cupcake Club page

I’ve tried many a cupcake in my day, especially while living in Manhattan for years and riding the wave of cupcake revival. Yet there is one cupcake that knocks me breathless (why breathe when you can use the extra space and time for devouring more cupcake matter?). This is the story of that cupcake.

Tee & Cakes

It’s not just New York and LA where cupcakes are booming; my new home of Boulder, Colorado has quite a few cupcake-focused bakeries as well. Of these, a little fashionable cafe called Tee and Cakes stands out.

Located right off Pearl St in the heart of downtown Boulder, this cafe stands out with its stylish character and friendly staff. Oh, and did I mention the cupcakes are to die for?

What makes this bakery so great?
Let me count the ways

Moist, mouthwatering cupcakes with a wide variety of icings and toppings.
Yummy, off-the-wall flavors like beer and chocolate bacon.
Mini, half-size cupcakes to satisfy those urges without requiring liposuction.
Fair trade brews and rich, foamy cappucinos made with Boulder Organic Coffee.
Friendly staff.

But don’t take my word for it
According to their press page, Tee & Cakes is famous. They’ve been featured on local news stations, The Onion, The Knot, and even Food Network. Yum!

I warned you these look yummy…

P.S. We would love to see your awesome reviews of our shop. Send em along for a free cupcake or coffee.

St. Paddy’s Day Cupcakes!

03.04.10

Today we have Irish Coffee Cupcakes, based off of one of my personal favorite drinks. But that’s a different story all together. This fine cupcake has an organic espresso cake, Jameson’s Irish Whiskey Whipped Cream Icing and topped with a dusting of our fine Boulder Organic Coffee organic espresso. It has that perfect blend of blood pumpin meets blood thinnin good times you come to know in a good Irish Coffee drink. Say you have a full rock show schedule to attend at SXSW and you need the two things that any self-respecting fan needs before a day’s worth of rockin: Coffee and Whiskey. And if you’re first show is at 11am, you need both. If you happen to be at the festival this year make sure you go to Halcyon Coffee, Bar & Lounge for Austin’s finest Irish Coffee. But I digress.

Next up we have the infamous Irish Car Bomb that we have done in years past. This year we’re keepin it local (beer-wise at least), using local stouts for the cake, Baily’s Irish Cream Buttercream as icing and topped with a four-leaf clover*

* Yes, a 3-leaf clover is pictured here, but that’s cause you can’t always be lucky. But we promise there will be a four-leaf clover in the near future.
