When my mom used to yell the word ‘cupcakes’, I would run… no, sprint the other way. Cupcakes…eww!

I was never able to understand why people would eat cupcakes.
The cupcakes that I knew were made of bran, flax, whole wheat….possibly molasses??
My mom was a health guru. I am certain that she may have even figured out a way to
blend wheat grass into our ‘cupcakes’.
One of the first weddings I ever shot, the couple decided to substitute a wedding cake for cupcakes…
It was incredibly adorable and each little cupcake look delishious to the eyes… but I wasn’t fooled.
I knew better.

I watched as the guests went and put a cupcake on their plate…. oh, should I warn them, they are all so innocent!
and then, the most obscure thing happened… many people went of for seconds and thirds.
I couldn’t help but stare and watch them. I was curious… why would they eat those things??
I had to try, I had to see what they loved about them. Did they love the bran? The Flax?

I hestitantly took a bite.
Oh Sweet Mother Of Cupcakes.

I have never tasted something so moist, so sweet, so…perfect.
I thought to myself ..’Had my tastebuds decieved me all these years??’
No.
My mother did.
She made me believe her cupcakes is what every mother made for their child. ha!

I had to find out who made these perfect little cakes in a cup.
Flirt Cupcakes.

I feel like I have never lived my life fully all those years, without knowing of what real cupcakes were.

So many brides now are substituting the traditional cake for cupcakes, and I think that is such a cute, fab, trendy idea.
I took a little stop at Flirt Cupcakes the other day…. ordered 4…
Yes, Matt and I devoured every little crumb. Possibly licking the box…
and maybe licking the ‘cupcake paper lining’… ( i am not saying i did and i am not saying I didnt!)

I just wanted to give a shout out to Flirt Cupcakes. It is the most cute and quaint place you ever did see!
I am a huge fan and now, so is Matt.
I love that they treat my brides top notch, and I highly, highly recommend them to brides, friends, family.

They are a real treat!! (Well, Matt thinks I am funny…i think.)

Mucho Love,
Kari
