With a unique twist on your favorite cupcakes, we are hoping to get these out to the masses! Come on.. Aren't they cute?!

Dessert should be more than just a course on a menu. It should be an experience. It should do more than immerse your mouth with flavor . . It should evoke a feeling of excitement. That is the goal with my desserts, mainly cupcakes. 

Rather than to just do simple desserts, I choose to do unique twists on classic ones. Sometimes it's in the form of unexpected flavor combinations or just unusual presentations. Out of all of the desserts I've made and served to people, the most popular one by far are my "Cheeseburger" Cupcakes with Sugar Cookie "Fries". There's just something about taking an all American favorite BBQ food and turning it into a delicious pastry that excites people! 

THE GOAL:

I have always dreamed of having my own shop/cafe called "DESSERTed Island" where people can have a dessert experience. I don't just want people to taste something. I want them to feel something. In order to make this happen, a lot of costs are involved. We already have a location for our business in the making but there's still a lot that we don't have such as equipment, supplies, ingredients, etc! That's the part where you can help! To show our appreciation for your support, we will give you some of our yummy desserts to see for yourself. Since our "Cheeseburger" Cupcakes with Sugar Cookie "Fries" are our most requested item, we are featuring those for this project! We hope you choose to help us and hope you enjoy our tasty treats! Thanks in advance!

  • I've been getting a lot of messages asking if these will survive being shipped to another state and the answer is YES! They will be sent priority mail via USPS, which should only take 1 or 2 days. To further insure freshness, they will be packed in an insulated box and wrapped in ice blankets to protect them and keep them cold. If you are very worried about them surviving and it's absolutely necessary, we can ship them to you frozen so that they will DEFINITELY withstand any conditions they endure during the delivery process.
