Guo Da Li cupcakes

I baked till 4am on Friday.. to work on an order for a customer who is getting married!

Congrats Bernard :)


6 cupcakes to be in a box, and each of them to be linked to the happy occasion theme.

I like the boxes, they are so cute (each with a different sticker) to show that these are wedding cupcakes. They are made up of 3 different flavours, mainly strawberry, cookies & cream and chocolate.

I received an sms from the customer few hrs after the cake delivery.
"Hi Joanne, the cupcakes are soft and nice. Very cute! Everyone loves it. Tks!"

The sms totally made my day, and make my efforts all worth it! heehee.

Birthday Cupcakes

I had a great time baking and decorating cupcakes today!
A new customer order 2 dozen cupcakes for her fren as birthday cake, and I wanted to use sweet pink theme to decorate them, making them as bright and cheerful as possible.
I added lotsa chocolate sprinkles, and the chocolate and Cookies & Cream cupcakes were so pretty even when they were naked! They were in even domes, and the fragrance was all over the house :)
Bring back all the joy I had when I used to bake so frequently.

My Cookies & Cream cupcakes decorated with "Happy Birthday Angel, We Love U!"
- How sweet of these frens isn't it?



Chocolate cupcakes baked by me.. I simply love the swirls.. I think they looked like those soft-served ice cream from MacDonalds. Haha..



I've been receiving many enquiries on asking if I conduct baking classes. I'm very flattered, but honestly, I don't think I have the capability to conduct any baking classes. I'm actually self-taught, and I obtain my skills via repeated trial and errors, and recipes from online/recipe books. All I can say is, practice makes perfect! :) Other than cupcakes, I don't really bake anything else cos' I practically have zero knowledge on them heehee.

Also, recently my pageviews has gone up by 4 times, and I am really curious to find out more on where my readers actually obtain information on my blog from. Pls do me a favour by leaving a msg in my tag to let me know how you stumbled onto my blog k? Thank you all , and I'll be baking more tomorrow! Stay tuned.

The 'trio cupcakes'

I baked lotsa cupcakes last weekend and i came up with my newest creation - The trio!
I had lotsa fun baking and decorating them, and i packed them in boxes of 9 (3 of each flavour) for customers. I've got good feedback on them, and i'm happy!

The trio! consist of 3 different kinds of flavours - Cookies & cream, Chocolate & Strawberry, each with a different design. The cookies & cream cupcake contains lotsa oreo cookies crumbs, and the amount of frosting is significantly reduced to suit a greater pool of audience who prefer less creamy cakes. I felt this works better for all! The chocolate cake is soft and i chose a simple design as chocolates are fragant on their own! They don't require fanciful designs to prove themselves :P And of cos, strawberries (my fave!) are perfect for for couples who are in love, with the 2 sweet loving hearts close to each other :)

I'll be coming up with X'mas cupcakes soon, either in boxes of 3 or 4, and also in larger quantities of 2 dozens or more. If you're interested, do drop me an email or sms as I will be consolidating my orders soon! Some enquiries on Christmas cupcakes already came in, and I will be finalizing my designs within these few days. I'm so excited for Christmas, and can't wait to start baking on the cupcakes.. Remember to watch out for them soon :)

Wedding cupcakes


Welcome to Buttercupcakeshop! This is my newly printed sticker :) A simple one, cos I will be adding my logo once its done! Stay tuned for more.

This weekend is a fruitful one. I baked 100 cupcakes for a good fren cum colleague of mine, as wedding favours. These are meant for distribution to her mum's colleagues.

Thanks to my greatest helper ever.. who is my boyfriend :)
He helped me with the packaging, from the boxes to cakes, to the photos, stickers, and ribbons!
What a wonderful guy i've got!

Anyway, I've decided to go for simple yet elegant cakes. After thoughts and thoughts, I decided to forgo the designs I've planned earlier on as I felt simplicity is the most suitable for the bride!

The bride chose the Green Tea/Matcha cupcakes together with Cookies & Cream to be as a dual in a box. And as these are wedding favors, i added hearts as the main decorations.
The pink hearts were made of Marzipan, which is almond paste. The cakes and frosting are of green tea flavoured and there was a tinge of green tea smell lingering in my house after baking!

These are Cookies & Cream cupcakes, topped with fresh cream and sprinkled with oreo cookies. I guarantee every single bites consist of oreo cookies!

Sorry for the blur pictures due to the rush of passing over these cakes to my fren. These are the boxes packed with 2 cupcakes each, tied with a pink ribbon and with my buttercupcakeshop sticker.

So, any comments readers? I do cupcakes for all occasions (wedding/birthday/halloween/valentines' day/any day u name it!) and designs can be catered and specified to your likings.

Flavours available include: Chocolate, vanilla, green tea, orange, blueberry, cookies & cream, peach, strawberry, raspberry etc. (if there's any flavours that you want yet not listed, just drop me a mail/sms and i'll get back to you if it's possible!)

Cookies & cream again

It's 10.38pm, and my bf isn't with me. I'm feeling weird, cos he will be by my side everyday during this time. We're known to be the 'superglue' to our families.. and now, while waiting for him, i shall blog about my bakes today!

No prize for guessing what I baked today. haha. (Btw, no one claimed my prize the other time.. so, forget it!)

A colleague cum good fren of mine is having her wedding nx month, and she requested me to bake 100 cupcakes for her to distribute to friends n relatives. This request got me working.. thinking.. and planning. I've got to start preparing my packaging boxes (still searching), decide on my design/deco, recipes and more.
She wants a sample of my cookies and cream (i promoted to her! haha) and so, I've baked a total of 2 dozens to distribute around.. to her, to my sister, and to satisfy my darling's craving for cupcakes hahaha (i'm surprised he never get sick of them!).

I had a great time baking and decorating them!
