Demolition Has Begun!

I just got a call from Niki that demolition has begun in the shop today.  This means we are one step closer to getting paint on the walls, counters up and STORE OPEN! 

Now we are putting together looks with paint samples, tile, decorations, furniture and the like just getting what we need to get those yummy cupcakes into your hands.

Happy Valentine's Day!

We have a quote on a sign for our new shop and, although it could be worse, these things are so expensive!  Because we are trying to remain as close to a debt-free business as possible, we need our fans and customers help. 

We are running a cupcake Valentine's "fundraiser." January 24 & 31 will be the pick-up dates for cupcake orders.  We are offering:

Triple Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Italian Merinque Buttercream with pink white chocolate heart decorations OR
Vanilla Cupcakes with pink Vanilla Italian Meringue Buttercream with chocolate heart decorations.
$20 per dozen, you can order one flavor or 6 of each with a minimum of one dozen order.

Please email us at littlepearlcupcake@hotmail.com or call us at 616-822-0813 to order.  You can help us by telling your friends about this offer and by ordering! 

These are perfect for a treat for the family, birthday party, work treats, anything!

Store Opening, finally!

Wow!  It has been awhile since my last post.  It was crazy with the holidays and all of the "busyness" those bring.  We are in the final stages of getting our storefront open.

Niki has been working hard getting all of the color samples and paint swatches, measurements, etc, together.  She is the mastermind behind this massive "project" and, frankly, it would have never happened without her. 

We are super excited to open our "cupcake boutique."  Thank you all for your continued support this process.  We have had amazing feedback on all of our ventures from friends, family, and lots of people we don't even know.  So far this has been an amazing experience and we cannot wait to tell you more.
