Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!

It definitely has been way overdue since we last wrote a blog, and we apologize a million times. It's actually Melanie's turn to write a blog, which she promised she would do her best to write an update during our spring break which starts on March 18th! So for sure check back then! (And since it's been a while, I'll make sure she writes a loong amazing blog (: that will be worth reading!)

In the meantime, Melanie and I made birthday cupcakes last week for our friend's 21st birthday! We decided to bake her vegan margerita cupcakes (she's not vegan, but we decided to try it out..) and we felt that margerita flavored cupcakes would fit the theme perfectly! Here are some pictures of what they looked like.. you can also check them out in our Flickr album to the right of here! -->>


Oh and we took videos of us making these cupcakes, so keep intune for a finished video for that! :)

plus check out our new VIDEO = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIVl4I-brLM :) get the inside scoop of us making the margerita cupcakes! :)

Don't think we gave up on this blog...

Hey guys! I know it's been way too long... but don't think Melanie and I forgot about this blog! We have been very occupied with other things, that we haven't had time. I know, I know... SAME excuse as last time. But even if we haven't been updating our blog, we have been making time to try new cupcakes and baking our own as well.

From last time, looks like Sprinkles was our last topic.. Well I hate to admit this.. But I think we have gone Sprinkles crazy! I swear ever since then, I've had Sprinkles way too many times that I think I am done, sick of their cupcakes... I'm or (we) are moving on! I mentioned last blog that it didn't help working a block away from the bakery.. Well as the months go by, our seasonal positions will soon end and we won't be visiting the Gold Coast as much anymore.. That being said, we will soon be Sprinkles free.

In a bit, I'll upload some pictures that Melanie and I took of our cupcakes. So check that out!

Other than Sprinkles, Melanie and I have finally did try a new place on our list called Sensational Bites. It's a cute little bakery more west of Wrigleyville. They serve their title well, it was pretty "sensational" for sure! They had many treats to offer other than cupcakes... There were oreo balls (which was delicious!), brownies, cookies, you name it! All for a reasonal price! Again, I'll upload more pictures from the visit in a bit. Luckily for me, this place is located really close to where I live... So we plan on making a visit very soon!

Oh also, this break Melanie and I finally did bake some cupcake treats! Can you guess? We had thrown a holiday party over break, and decided to bake some Sprinkles peppermint mix! How did they turn out you ask? Well.... let's just say Sprinkles mixes and Krazy 4 Kupcakes don't mix well together... The cupcakes were good, they were just really MINTY! TOO minty that it tasted like mouth wash. HAHA. I swear they must not want their customers to bake the same way they do at their bakeries! We're convinced.

Anyway, this is all the updates I have for you! But check out our pics in a bit!

Oh and also......

We haven't logged on our YouTube in ages and to find out that one of our videos - "Cookies and Strawberry Cream" had over 1000+ views, was a very exciting and shocked news to us!

While you're at it... check out our new Halloween Video!!!!!
Thank you guys!

Forever & Always,

Free Cupcakes for ALL!!!

Did you know that Sprinkles Cupcakes gives away free cupcakes every day? If you type in “Sprinkles Cupcakes” in the search box on Facebook, you will find Sprinkles’ page - www.facebook.com/sprinkles (also works on Twitter). Each day, around noon time (most likely) they post a new status up about receiving a free cupcake for the first 10th, 25th or even 50th customer to whisper a certain word at any Sprinkles location. If you are one of those lucky participants, you are granted a free cupcake.

Yep, that’s right; it definitely reels in the same customers coming back for more – true statement. With that being said, even as busy as we are, Melanie and I have found time to stop by Sprinkles for a free treat. I swear, probably half our time trying Sprinkles already has been free. Well it also doesn’t help that Melanie and I work a block away from the Sprinkles location!!!!! I think we have gone Sprinkles Crazy! I didn’t think it wasn’t that great, but now I kind of like it! :-)

Anyways, Melanie and I actually made some Halloween cupcakes recently and let’s just say.. it didn’t go very well! :-O I think it’s been way too long since we’ve made cupcakes from scratch! People, who did get a chance to try them, said they liked it and others said they didn’t. But they were for sure not our best ones! Oh well, everyone has their bad days.

We do want to make holiday cupcakes, and we sure will once our holiday break begins! It’s crazy to think of how fast this semester flew by, Melanie is actually almost done with this semester. So be excited that we will have more free time to upload videos and posts soon! Sorry guys!!! But we will definitely keep the updates consistent this time! :-) Okay well I think that is it for now..

PS- YOU CAN ORDER cupcakes, just let us know. We would love to make some for you!

Until next time,

Krazy 4 Kupcake Girls <3
