We Do Cupcakes!!!


So as many of you know, my mom and I have a small, home based baking business. About five years ago around Christmas time, money was a little tight. My mom and I started brainstorming how we could help my already hard-working dad bring in a few extra dollars.... and so began Rhonda's Tasty Treats. To our great surprise, the Lord blessed us with hundred's of dollars in orders in just the first season! We started out with a basic list of cookies, nut rolls, and pumpkin rolls (man, those things sell like hot cakes!) We gradually began to experiment with new products in the gluten free genre and even some pies.


With shows like Cupcake Wars and the rise in popularity of Celebrities doing cupcakes instead of sheet cakes for parties and weddings, the demand for cute, boutique-style, gourmet cupcakes has become high. So we figured why not... we will try it as an experiment for my brother's upcoming graduation party and see what happens. To our surprise, they were a HUGE hit! So, Rhonda's Tasty Treats now does cupcakes too!

The hit of the party... Chocolate Raspberry Cupcakes with Godiva Liquor and Raspberry Vodka (hence the reason these babies are not for the kiddos!)


Caramel Macchiato... caramel and coffee cupcake base, with a thin caramel filling topped with a caramel and coffee butter cream.

Our current menu for cupcakes...

- Chocolate Raspberry
- Caramel Macchiato
- Pina Colada
- Pittsburgh Mud Puddle (Chocolate Peanut Butter)
- Chocolate Chili
- Plain Chocolate
- Plain Vanilla
- Spiced Chai

Chocolate Chili... regular chocolate Godiva cake with a little kick!


We plan on expanding our menu as we try new recipes for cakes. Some that we plan on trying in the near future include... White Russian, Strawberry Shortcake, Margarita, Mojito, and Chocolate Cherry Bombs.

If you are interested in ordering some delicious cakes that are sure to make you popular among your friends, try us out for your next event! You can send inquiries to imove92@gmail.com. Also, if you have an inspiration for a cake that you'd like us to try, we will be more than happy to work with you and try something new!

Gee.

I just had a thought. This time next summer, I will have chosen a college, secured financial aide, and found a room mate. The only decisions left will be what color I want my dorm room bed spread. It's a bittersweet thought. How I would LOVE to have all of the decisions decided and set in place for next fall, but I've heard that this is all part of enjoying the ride. I should be taking each day of this summer to relax and enjoy myself, because God knows next summer won't be as breezy. A small update on my college status. -I'm down to Art Education or Art Therapy as a major. (leaning toward Art Ed.) -I finally scheduled my SAT test date. (October 10th, 2009) -I found 5 colleges in Pennsylvania that offer Art Ed as an official major... *Messiah College (Harrisburg) *Seton Hill University (Greensburg) *The University of Edinboro (North... close to Erie) *Indiana University of Pennsylvania (Indiana, Pa. duh. ha...

Not Much but Just Enough

It is so incredibly easy to lose sight of where you are in life.  One thing piles onto the next and all of a sudden you are swampped with a million things lined up in your datebook and a billion thoughts going through your mind.  Sometimes I get so overwhelemed in my own life and busyness that I lose track of all the great things God is doing for me.  As some of you may know, I quit my job at Giant Eagle to persue photography full time.  I can't really describe the feeling of peace I had about it when I made the decision; I just knew it was the right thing to do.  At first it was slow going and kind of discouraging, but over the last couple of months I have been able to make enough money solely through photography to support myself and all of my expenses.  It would be easy to stop at that and brag on myself and my accomplishments, but I truly am humbled by the fact that God would choose to bless my efforts to use the talent he gave me to make a living....

I'll take 3 please!

So today as I was sitting in the waiting room of National Tire and Battery getting my car's oil changed I was watching the "Fox Business" channel. Minute after minute went by, but it seemed like hours. The mundane news anchors talked about how dumb it is to invest in gold bars, and how the flies in Georgia are beginning to migrate North for the winter. (the thing about flies isnt real, but it shows you how much attention I was paying to the TV). I was just about to bust out my iPod when I heard something that piqued my attention. A famous Japanese fashion designer invented an H1N1 suit. It looks just like a business suit, but the fabric on the outside has high-powered infection repellant so the H1N1 germ is killed instantly upon contact. If you want more details so you can laugh (or maybe you might be considering purchasing one for yourself) you can click here . The other thing I HAD to laugh at is the fact that Barrack Hussien Obama is the winner of this year'...
