We have a winner of the one dozen cupcakes from Cupcake Delights!
#41: Vicki
Congratulations Vicki!!!
I'll be putting you directly in contact with Judy at Cupcake Delights to select your flavors!
Thanks everyone for playing along!!
I know Judy has loved reading your comments
and all of your ridiculously wonderful flavor suggestions!!!
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
I hope this post will make your mouth water...
and at the same time...
I hope you will sit back...
enjoy the imagery...
and allow your creative cupcake liners to be filled with a batter of inspiration...
You've heard me mention and post about Cupcake Delights many times now.
flavor: chocolate cake
I may have told you about how delicious the cupcakes are from this local cupcakery...
flavor: turtle crunch
I know I've shared several "photoshoots" I've done using these decadent cupcakes...
flavor: chocolate cake
And I may have even told you how I think the cupcakes are
the perfect balance between being pleasing to the eye...
flavors: chocolate and yellow cake
and pleasing to the palette.
flavor: pumpkin spice
I've used Cupcake Delights in several recent events...
flavor: turtle crunch
I've used them in the photoshoots I do
to help release new collections/products
flavor: pecan pie
And I'm lucky enough to be minutes away from this wonderful "cupcakery"
located in downtown Mt. Dora...
flavors: carrot cake & peanut butter crunch
I've become even luckier as of late because Judy, owner of Cupcake Delights,
and I have established a professional relationship!!
Judy provides me with delicious, beautiful, coordinating cupcakes...
I provide her with photos for her to use on her website...
And we both do some advertising for each other.
(I even encouraged her to ship cupcakes to Kim from the TomKat Studio and they are going to be featured in one of Kim's recent photoshoots)! Yay!!!
Needless to say, it's been a relationship that has benefited the both of us.
(not so much my thighs though...*wink*)
With that said, Judy and I agreed her recent transition into "shipping available"
makes for the perfect time to offer a giveaway to one of my VERY lucky readers!!

KEEPING IT REAL
How this all got started:
I walked into Judy's shoppe one day to purchase more cupcakes and I finally got up the nerve to ask her if she'd be interested in working together...
I'm thinking she thought I just wanted some free cupcakes at first because I couldn't really get a read on her. *wink*
I was excited to know she had a FB fan page so we exchanged url's.
By the time I got home that afternoon, Judy had left on comment on my fan page
and well...
the rest is history! *wink*
Little did I know Judy's shoppe was voted best bakery in Orlando in 2008! (and that was after only being open for 8 months)! Wow!!
I definitely feel lucky to be so close to such a treasure!!

Love this giveaway, I'm always in the mood for cupcakes! I learned Judy took her first cake decorating class at age 13!

We have been to cupcake delites twice and she is always so friendly to us. Her cupcakes are to die for.
Didn't realize they had been open since 2007. I would have started going there a long time ago.
In ABOUT I found out we both have daughters named Taylor and they are both 12! Cupcake connection!

Wow, Judy started her own business selling cupcakes and cakes at 13! Wish I had that kind of drive at that age.
At this moment, I am salivating over those Red Velvet cupcakes, yum!
For the December Holidays, I'd suggest a Pumpkin Spice. Actually, I'd eat pumpkin spice cupcakes all year round! :)
I didn't see pumpkin spice was already available. Another dream flavor for the December Holidays for me would be Peppermint Chocolate Marshmallow. Lip smacking good. :)
I Facebooked liked Cupcake Delights!
I had no idea that an easy bake oven could turn into a love of baking and owning a cupcakery.

I'd gobble up any of them, but first I'd have the Chocolate Caramel Chunk, anything with chocolate and peanut butter, and the turtle cupcakes.
Seasonal suggestion:
Something like a pumpkin roll, but in a cupcake: pumpkin cupcake, cream cheese frosting, with chopped pecans.
