This is going to be one busy week...

Not a good week to miss school!
As of today, we have about 120 cupcakes ordered, all of which need to have some fabulous Halloween decoration on them. This will be fun though. We have the cupcakes and icings down, it's the decorations that we get to be creative with. McKenna will be making her fondant from scratch which tastes much better than the store bought stuff and then Taylor and Sammy will be making little figures for the tops of all of the cupcakes. We'll have some monsters, some pumpkins, ghosts and so on. I can't wait to see the finished products!
CAIII also has a catering on Wednesday afternoon. This will be our first official off site catering job. Those are always a blast.
We are taking this Friday off from staff lunches due to all of the cupcakes that we are making.
Again, let us know if you are interested! They will be great and are just $1.25 per cupcake. Not bad for a tasty little work of art.
We will be sure to post a lot of pictures on our various blogs so check them out!

3. Do I have to write this down?
4. What are we cookin' today?
5. Can I make some bacon and eggs real quick?

Baby Chatfield is out sick!!

Hey there!
I am at home with the little guy.
Monday we are just continuing with perfecting our doughs! It's monkey bread and Naan this week. Wish I was there to try the monkey bread...I'm a big fan.
This week's lunch and dinner is going to be Chicken Tikka Masala OR Chickpea and Potato Masala with Basmati rice, home made garlic naan and chai cupcakes. Let us know if you are interested!

Finshed Product from Friday's staff lunch...

The lunch (which I failed to take a picture of) was great. The cous cous was so good and the chicken and sauce both had so much flavor! Then to top it off with this great dessert...it was a good Friday. We had teachers coming in to class asking to buy any extra cupcakes but we were all out! So funny.

This week they want us to sell paw print cupcakes school wide for Friday. Hoepfully we will sell a ton!

Here are some pictures of them working on the honey bee cupcakes! Such a good job.

Thursday Staff Lunch Prep

Today was a productive day of lunch prep.
If you missed it you missed out!
We are still concentrating on and very committed to making the greatest cupcakes known to everyone. I think that today we had a winner.
Walnut Cupcake with Honey Buttercream and a Baklava 'Disc' and honey bee to top them off.
Oh and lunch is going to be great this week too.

Now lets have a smooth, efficient, and CLEAN Friday!
Good work ladies!

I will post pictures on Friday of all of the different components of the lunch so everyone can see what they are missing out on!
