January Cupcake Menu

Happy New Year!

We hope everyone had a safe and sweet holiday season. At The Candy Store we had a great time, but we're also pleased to move on from holiday music (well, some of us definitely are) and get started on a fabulous 2011. The best way we can think to start the year off right is by offering up this month's cupcake menu! You'll notice there are two new flavours and a change to an old favourite.

Cupcakes arrive every Saturday at 11 am and we always accept pre-orders to ensure you get exactly what you're craving! To place a pre-order you can call, come by the store or email us with your sweet request. We would also like to strongly encourage anyone ordering six cupcakes or more to place their order by Thursday. We know this isn't always possible as last minute plans come up, but when possible, advance notice for larger quantities is appreciated by not only us, but also The Cupcake Lounge who hand crafts each of these delicious gems!
