Wow, this has been a crazy week. besides custom orders, I have been prepping and planning like mad for this weekend.
So whats on the agenda?

MeFest 2009
Saturday is MeFest. There is going to be a whole bunch of great women-oriented freebies and pampering sessions. If you are going to be in the Waterloo Region this weekend, be sure to come by and check it out-bring your friends! Click here for a map to the location. There is plenty of FREE parking, and with admission only $3.00 when you bring a Food Bank donation, its a VERY inexpensive day out, and a chance to check out some fantastic local women-oriented businesses!
And of course The Grand Bakery will be there. We are giving away FREE mini cupcakes! There will be chocolate and vanilla both with our fabulous creamy old fashioned buttercream, as well as VEGAN chocolate with strawberry frosting mini cupcakes. YUM!
Now, if FREE pampering services and FREE cupcakes aren’t enough to tempt you into joining us, how about a SPECIAL OFFER for you cupcake lovers?
For ONE DAY ONLY at MeFest, we will be offering a special 6-Pack of our Regular, full size cupcakes in the following flavors:
- Red Velvet
- Chocolate Cheesecake
- Coconut (aka the Raffi)
- Carrot
- Big John
- Banana Split
Doesn’t that sound great? 6 of our most popular flavors for you to try, boxed and ready to go at an INCREDIBLE price of only $10.00! That’s $1.67 per cupcake! And ONLY at MeFest, in limited quantities-when they are gone, they are GONE!

MeFest 6pack
AND! (How can there possibly be an AND?!) Every vendor will be having a draw at their table, and The Grand Bakery will be offering a draw for a goodie bag bursting with some fantastic cupcake swag-including a coupon giving you a dozen FREE cupcakes!
If you aren’t going to be in the Kitchener-Waterloo area on Saturday, don’t fret, you can still get your Cupcake Fix all weekend (Saturday & Sunday) at Dee’s General Store while quantities last–and of course at the Burford Family Market on Sunday! (Everything will be ready at Dees by 8am Saturday morning as I will not be there for the day-I’ll be at MeFest!)
So whats the flavor list like for this weekend? Well let me tell you, it is getting harder and harder for me to narrow it down! But here is the short list:
- Red Velvet
- Chocolate Cheesecake
- Coconut (aka the Raffi)
- Carrot
- Big John
- Banana Split
- Strawberry
- Dutch Apple
- Maple (it is the weekend of the Elmira Maple Syrup Festival, after all!)
- Elvis
