denisedaisy33 Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Wow! What an awesome response. Thanks so much for the wonderful welcome. I will post a menu soon so that you can place orders! I have "sugar issues" myself so I would like to offer some sugarfree or lowcarb items. That is wonderful I am also diabetic and would love a great place to get some good treats!! Link to post Share on other sites

bumblebee Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 omg! so that's what all the "buzzing" is about RIGHT DOWN THE STREET FROM ME! yippee! (i will need lots of pink cupcakes in march when my little girl turns ONE) lol. It will be fun to be a part of a FIRST birthday. I made a cake and matching mini-cake just this week for a 2nd birthday party. I can think of several cute pink cupcakes ideas. ) Link to post Share on other sites

GoodNeighbor Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 I have a little marketing or service suggestion for you. The schools no longer allow parents to bring in home made goods for their children. This means I can't make and send in cupcakes but I can send in store bought, sealed and labled cupcakes. It would be great if we could come online, order the cupcakes, pay online, and have you deliver them to the schools. This would really help working parents do something special for their children without having to leave work. Maybe you could work with local PTA's and they could send out fliers for you or allow you to have a display at the next PTA meeting. I've always tried to come up with ideas for businesses who aren't open all day. Typically, bakeries are only open limited hours. Since you have to pay rent 24 hours a day the closed hours seem like such wasted income potential. I've always thought Friday and Saturday evenings would be a good time for bakeries to host cookie or cupcake decorating birthday parties. Link to post Share on other sites

kelboo69 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 I would love either danish especially cheese, or cinnamon buns, we would have things like that every sunday morning for breakfast!!! yum and for birthday parties we would have chocolate mou sse cake covered in chocolate shavings!!!!!

I personally think if someone is at the bakery, it should be open. lol. But that would mean having at least 2 people working, because you can't stop some things once you start.

And I love bakeries. haha. My daughter always said she wanted their cake squares instead of a wedding cake when she gets married. Hopefully, she will be wanting Bumblebee cake squares instead.

PauldingMom Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I was thinking the same thing about the delivery idea. I don't know if the schools will allow it (thinking Fast Times @ Ridgemont High pizza) but as long as you can drop it off at the front office, they may. I also love the birthday party idea. Is there enough room to host a decorating part? We do this in our home every Christmas and the kids have so much fun! Use paint brushes instead of pastry bags to ice cookies. Works like a charm. The children could take them home in goody bags. Link to post Share on other sites
