Cake Nation! How I've missed posting for you! We've been B.U.S.Y. at the shop. You guys have purchased literally thousands of cupcakes from us in just two weeks. And cakes, boy oh boy, are you all ordering cakes. So, I thought I would post a few of the orders, cupcakes and cakes, that went out our first full week at the shop.
