Engagement Cupcakes

Last weekend was my engagement party and I couldn’t wait to share my adorable custom cupcakes from the one and only Georgetown Cupcakes - Soho location, of course. Before my party I knew Georgetown Cupcakes were some of the tastiest and highest quality cupcakes in the very saturated cupcake-market, but I had no idea how special their custom creations could be. When I placed my catering order, I knew exactly the flavors I wanted — 2 dozen red velvet with vanilla cream cheese frosting and 2 dozen Valrhona chocolate, half with whipped Callebaut chocolate frosting and half with sweet vanilla buttercream. I explained enthusiastically to the catering manager that it was my engagement party and he insisted on creating a custom fondant decoration free of charge. After hearing all of the fabulous options — a bride and groom stamp, our “J+A” initials embossed, just to name a few — I settled on a dazzling silver shimmer fondant disc, embossed with a sparkling engagement ring. When I received the cupcakes on the day of the party, carefully packaged in bright pink boxes, I was thrilled with the custom cupcake assortment.

Georgetown will customize their cupcakes for pretty much anything — birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, corporate events, and more. Check them out at www.georgetowncupcake.com.
