Jamie's 14k Cupcakes Brings Cupcake Push pops!

My 7 year old wants the cake - but this year she decided on Fried Apple Pies for her birthday treat...



MissChele

Where are you getting those? I make regular apple pies (lattice top, double crust and caramel topped) but not the fried kind!

Carry on with your angry sugar commentary! Jamie sounds vicious!

LOL.

Did I miss something lol

All the best, whether you "push them" or shove them, or "stick them" G-d speed.

This made me chuckle

Yay! Really, Jamie, good luck girl, and Leah, you keep on truckin!

Megan, I'm sure that you don't have the weirdest pre-schooler in town. I taught kindergarten for 14 years and, as I remember, in those days of large classes (32-35) that there was usually one or two children that ditched the frosting in favor of the cake.

FYI - this baking mama has a couple of kids who only eat the cake. For Miles, his favorite treat is "just plain cake" (aka vanilla pound cake). David will eat standard bakery cake but hates the fake-store buttercream icing. He will eat my vanilla meringue buttercream or chocolate frosting but it can be a little embarassing when we go to another kid's party and he says "Sorry, I only eat my mom's frosting".

Jamie, I haven't stopped in (too busy out in La Grange) but best of luck with your new venture!

I stopped by Jamie's the other day, and here is my 2 cents. I walked into the shop and I felt weird. There was no music, no background, noise, it felt very uninviting. As I saw the cupcakes sitting behind the counter and the price board my initial thought was "$2.85 for that little cup cake?". The cake part of the cup cake was mediocre and at that point I was disappointed I had gone. But, then I got to the icing. Jamie's icing is the best icing I have ever had. It is mousse-like and not to sweet. I suggest create a moister cake, enlarge the cupcake and the product will a big seller. With that frosting, I also suggest selling regular cakes for birthdays, weddings, and special occasions once the cake is tweaked a little.

Thanks Sue for your suggestions! We are ALWAYS supposed to have music, not sure why we didn't on this particular day. Was it before noon? Our cupcakes are priced at $2.75 The Ingredients we use are reflected in the price. Could you tell me what day you happened to come in and what cupcake you had? Our cupcakes are usually very moist almost angel food like for the white cake and fudgy for the chocolate. The day of the week might explain some things to me (days I am there or who is working). I am sorry for the inferior cake though. I did/am having trouble with portion sizing with a few of my new girls who seem to be skimping and having consistency issues. This is my top priority in getting this corrected. We do offer all of our cupcakes in cakes also.Check us out on facebook to see some pics of our works. Glad you liked our Icing. I am really bummed to hear about the cake though. We have had many repeat clients saying they are the best they have ever had (cake and icing wise). I would like you to be one of those people also ,so stop by and have one one on me next time and hopefully we will have gotten it right. I really apperciate you bringing this to my attention. If I do not know about the problem I cannot make improvements. So thanks again.

I had some Jaime's 14K Cupcakes... err, cupcakes on Saturday. The 14k and the Smores cupcakes were awesome, as was the chocolate cupcake push-pop I picked up for the walk home (have to make sure I don't burn any calories!). All of the above were incredible.

The cupcakes were small when compared to the now-standard massive cupcake, but they were also half the price of a massive brick of cake and sugar. More importantly, they tasted a hell of a lot better than the average cupcake brick. The cake was soft and moist, the frosting was airy and smooth (almost like mousse or marshmallow fluff consistency) without being cloying. It was a well balanced, high-quality dessert for an appropriate price.

Thanks Ron! We try our best

The little ginger kid behind the counter was able to answer all my obnoxious questions, so bonus points for him. I can't believe you've got a topping bar, and I can't believe I didn't add Oreo chunks to my smores cupcake!

Bumping an old thread from the dead for some praise.

I split one of Jamie's chocolate mint cupcakes with my GF the other night after catching it at Heine Bros Schnitzelburg, and it was just incredible. If you like chocolate and mint, you're in for a treat if you can pick one of those up. I loved the addition of the little triangle of mint chocolate candy bar on top, and the pleasant surprise of the chocolate ganache in the middle.

Thumbs up all around.
