PetitsCakes Launches!

This past February I took the big step to launch my own (very small) cupcake business! After working on the design and website for awhile and coming up with a strategy for the launch I decided to sell cupcake gifts for Valentine's Day to co-workers and friends in the Louisville area. Everyone was so supportive and the launch went very successfully!

It took me a few trials to get the fondant hearts to work with me and I learned a lot about working with fondant in the process, but thankfully everything right before and even during the launch went well. Now the plan is to keep expanding my repertoire and continue to look for ways to advertise and promote myself while maintaining the website. It's a lot to have on one's plate, but it is a wonderful creative outlet and I love that I can actually have an excuse to continue developing this addicting hobby.

To check out my website click on the new PetitsCakes Website tab on the top of the page. Otherwise, here are some photos from the launch!
