HOW TO EAT A MAPLE BACON CUPCAKE

STEP 1: Get your Maple Bacon cupcake from, where else, Duckie's Cupcakes.

STEP 2: Separate the bacon from the cupcake. (aww)

STEP 3: Peel off half of the wrapper.

STEP 4: Eat half of the maple cupcake.

STEP 5: Smother the remaining cream cheese frosting over the cupcake using the bacon.

STEP 6: Eat the bacon. Yum.

STEP 7: Eat the remaining half of the cupcake like a rock star.

STEP 8: Now, be a good boy or girl and dispose of the cupcake wrapper in a way where you show love for the environment.

BIRTHDAY ROSES

My officemate Berns celebrated her birthday earlier this week, and her thoughtful teammates turned to me for her birthday suprise, which are of course miniature cupcakes! Awww! (Thanks for supporting my livelihood, my dear friends, haha!)

I was, as always, excited because Berns is a fun, girly, and smart woman. What fits her better than a bouquet of roses, right? I've been wanting to use my rose petal tip for a long time now, and finally, the time has come. Ladies and gentlemen, my creation:

A bouquet of Red, Pink and White Roses

This photo has garnered 47 likes on Facebook so far... mwehehe! Anyway, I am just here for all your mini-cupcake catering needs (birthdays, weddings, proposals, anniversaries, anything!) Just text 09179223070 or email duckiescupcakes@yahoo.com for all your cupcake inquiries. 'Till the next post, happy ducklings!

 Want some roses, honey? (One of my most awkward photos to date. But who cares? Haha!)

RAINBOW CUPCAKES

A friend of a friend contacted me for birthday cupcakes for her 6-year old baby girl this weekend. I got too excited because I had a concept tucked away for months now that I finally wanted to translate into actual cupcakes! Here you go folks: RAINBOW CUCPAKES!

My supplier also sent me these uber cute sprinkles, and I used them to top the rainbow cakes! I also loved the buttercream on these babies. *heart*

A cross-section of the cupcake, yey! I am sooo proud of my work right now, haha! I am so happy this one actually pulled through, I was nervous on whether the baking would change the shades of the colors, but they actually turned out really bright and pretty. :)

As of press time, I finished baking some strawberry short(cup)cakes. Of course, that is reserved for another entry.

XOXO
Roni

VALENTINES IS COMING

WHY MINI CUPCAKES?

A lot of people have been asking: :Why mini cupcakes?

Red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting

My decision to make mini-cupcakes was brought about by the taste testing I do while baking. Let me explain: You see, for every batch I bake, even before frosting, I need to taste the cupcake. I personally believe that a good cupcake can taste good even without the frosting. The frosting is an added touch, but even without it, the cake itself should taste good. After tasting one batch after the other, I got (err...) sick of the process. I was too full! Rawr.

Carrot cupcakes with cream cheese frosting

So I thought, hey, why not make mini-cupcakes? The idea immediately clicked and I was really happy with every batch that I made. To add to the taste testing reason, I realize that mini cupcakes give people the opportunity to enjoy many flavors with half the calories and SUGAR. Imagine eating one big cupcake, and still wanting to try other flavors. Some can, some can't do that anymore.

Chocolate cupcakes with salted caramel

With mini cupcakes, you just pop them in your mouth and still not feel guilty nor full. :)

Bestselling Nutella cupcakes

There you go. The story of how my mini cupcakes came to be. Hope it makes sense, hahaha!

XOXO
Roni

JANUARY-END CUPCAKES

One word: haggard! Another word: Happy! There you go. Haggard but happy! :D Thanks to all those who ordered! Yahoo!

Left to right: Blueberry Cheesecake, Apple Walnut Streusel, The Devilette and Nutella

XOXO
Roni

Devilette 2.0

Thanks for the cupcake love!
XOXO
Roni

SIGNATURE CUPCAKES

They say that every cook or baker has his or her own signature dish. I have two, so far! :)

Orders have been pouring in for my NUTELLA cupcakes. Honestly, I wasn't really impressed with how my Nutella cupcakes came out, but then, order after order proved otherwise. It seems the Nutella cupcakes will be a mainstay in my cupcake flavors of the month.

Next we have the "Devilette". Hehe, this cupcake is sooo me. (errr?)

My friends and I were talking about wedding cupcakes and one friend referred someone who is getting married to try out my cupcakes. The friend of the friend (still following?) asked if my cupcakes are better than Conti's Mango Bravo or The Chocolate Kiss' Devil's Food Cake. Our other friend said she thinks I could do it better,  because no one knows DFC better than moi.

In the end, challenge accepted! Presenting my creation, the "Devilette" (I couldn't think of a name for the-tinier-version-of-the-devil's-food-cake!)

Moist chocolate cake topped with chocolate ganache and a fluffy marshmallow frosting. I am getting good at this, eh? Next time I would like to try a meringue frosting instead of the marshmallow one. We'll see how that turns out.

I will not be taking orders this weekend (January 21/22) because I am so tired. Haha! Growing pains. Anyway, I'll focus on developing new flavors to add to the rotation and of course, Valentines flavors! Watch out for those.

Thanks so much for supporting my cupcakes!

XOXO
Roni

TELEPHONE NUMBER TO BE PUBLISHED SOON!

Hey guys I've been obsessing with taking videos recently. I am testing the embed feature now, so you'll be expecting more videos from me in the future!



XOXO
Roni

ORDERS ARE GROWING... GROWING... GROWING...

Hmmm, I think the weekends are driving me crazy with all the orders coming in. Honestly, I didn't even think that the response for my cupcakes would be this high. It's almost 2 in the morning right now and I just finished a fresh batch for delivery tomorrow morning. Man, I should get a shop! Haha!

 

Orders, orders, orders. Hey look, there's Santa! Hehe :D

Look at those walnuts. Oh yeah.

 My secret recipe: Homemade Caramel Sauce. Ha!! Wait 'till you taste this one ;)

Okay dearies, that's a wrap. I will update again soon! More flavors coming your way, hihi :D

XOXO

Roni
