what about cupcake accessories? can I add a birthday candle to my order? what about a card?

we have special birthday cupcake decorations and candles. we also have cupcake flags for a variety of occasions!

sending cupcakes to a friend/loved one? after you add your kit to your cart and go through the initial stage of checkout, you’ll arrive at the Your Shopping Cart page - you’ll notice a field at the bottom, named Additional Information, where you can enter your gift message. we’ll write your gift message on a sweet little card and include it in your order.

is it possible to ship cupcake kits to multiple addresses?

yes and no. don’t you love complicated answers to complicated questions?
if you want to send a cupcake kit to your aunt, your cousin and your boss - you totally can.

how much does a cupcake kit cost?

our kits of 6 cupcakes are $19.00 PLUS shipping.

our kits of 12 cupcakes are $38.00 PLUS shipping.

how do i care for my cupcakes after their arrival?

this is an interesting question - both because we can’t imagine not decorating and eating our cupcakes as soon as humanly possible, and because we never eat any less than 3 cupcakes in one sitting.

well, we might be exaggerating a bit - but the key to enjoying fresh cupcakes is to eat them as soon as you can after their arrival.
we do not use anything in the cupcakes to maximize their shelf life, nor do we use stabilizers or any other funny stuff in our icings.

if you have what it takes to wait a while before eating your cupcakes, then we recommend you eat them no longer than one day after their arrival - simply to ensure maximum deliciousness.

leave your cupcakes at room temperature, but do put your icing in the fridge. but, seriously, why would you wait to eat them?

are your sprinkles okay for vegans?

our sprinkles cannot be guaranteed vegan. if you are a vegan and didn’t know that some sugars aren’t vegan, well, you’ve got some research to do.

why can’t I drag & drop my choices into the cupcake builder?

a few of our customers are having problems with the fancy technology that allows our drag & drop feature to work successfully.
try updating your internet browser. the most recent version of Firefox seems to work beautifully - because it, apparently, has a lot of preloaded java scripts in it. and, word on the street is that drag & drop technology requires good java script. so, give it a shot! treat your computer to a new internet browser (totally free! you just have to take the time to let it load!) and then let the cupcake magic begin!
