The cupcakes are coming, the cupcakes are coming!

We've had this under our hat for long enough: Cupcakes are coming!

Yes dear friends, The Candy Store has been putting in long hours researching, tasting, re-tasting and then tasting some more to find the perfect cupcakes to brighten up your Saturdays! We're ever-so-pleased to announce that Claudia of The Cupcake Lounge will be fulfilling our baked goods wishes and bringing freshly made cupcakes to us every Saturday starting October 3rd!

Claudia is Ottawa-based and makes all of her cupcakes from scratch, using the highest quality ingredients and lots of tender love. Her cupcakes are all hand iced - no piping! She thrives on producing the freshest, most appealing treats and from what we've tasted, we're hooked!

On October 3rd the flavours will be Southern Red Velvet (light chocolate cake with sweet cream cheese frosting and a milk chocolate callet) and Lemon Coconut (pure lemon cake and frosting, with shredded coconut). We couldn't be happier! We'll have the rest of the month's menu shortly so that you can see what we're getting in advance and mark your calendar for favourites (but seriously, how can you pick favourites??).

One thing that is different, however, about our upcoming Saturday cupcakes, is that they will not be available until 11:00AM each week. So no need to rush out the door on a lazy Saturday to make it to The Candy Store when we open - you can sleep in a little bit extra and still get your sugar fix. Isn't life grand?

Thank you to all of our freelance cupcake consultants for helping us through the cupcakes trials.
