Famous Blue Cupcake - Trial-Run Sale!
Hello! Welcome to the first offering of vegan cupcakes for sale through my LJ! Very exciting. I've done some testing on shipping methods and am ready to send these puppies out into the world. Or at least the continental U.S. The first cupcakes I shall be offering are called Peanut Butter-Chocolate Explosions of Joy. Their unofficial name is "Misha's Minion" -- because they are nutty and sweet, like the man himself:
Cupcakes contain peanut butter, chocolate chips, peanuts, and chopped dark chocolate-covered almonds. 100% vegan.
The Misha's Minion come in two different ways: with chocolate ganache spread on top or with chocolate drizzled on top. I am sure the drizzled ones will ship better. However, I am a chocolate girl and like having more ganache. You can request either way. If you order w/ ganache spread on top, your best bet is to freeze or refrigerate your cupcakes before eating. I refrigerate all my cupcakes when I'm not nomming them, actually, so that's just a good rule of thumb. These in particular will need the refrigeration to make sure the ganache stays on the cupcake.
The drizzle method, and the spread method. Taster T says of these cupcakes: "OMG, that was the best thing I ever ate!"
Pricing and Shipping:
Shipping prices vary wildly. I'll be charging a base price plus a shipping price:
Cupcake base price: $6 for half dozen, $10 for full dozen
Shipping prices:
East of the Mississippi to a business (2 days) = $4
East of the Mississippi to a residence (2 days) = $6
Mid-west to a business (3 days) = $5
Mid-west to a residence (3 days) = $7
*For West Coast buyers, please contact me and we'll work something out!
I use UPS b/c on average they're faster and cheaper than USPS, but they do charge $2 for a residence delivery.
I will be baking these fresh tomorrow, so get your order in by noon EST tomorrow, Monday. They'll be shipped out on Tuesday. Send to yourself or your friends! Payment is through paypal -- bluefjords at gmail dot com. Comment here to let me know you're interested. Also, this is a trial-run. Comment if you have suggestions on shipping / pricing / flavors. I'm all ears.
Also, the gorgeous amand_r is offering (non-vegan) cookies and pound cake on her LJ today. Dig it. Her stuff is amazing!
