Random act of kindness - free cupcakes !....interested?

Hello everyone !

Here at TACC we have decided that it's so nice giving a friend or loved one a surprise gift, especially someone who has done something really kind for another or had a difficult time lately and could do with some 'cheer me up' cupcakes.

So, we have set up what we call our Random Act of Kindness giveaway.How does it work you are wondering... Well, this is where YOU all come into it!

Every new verified twitter and new blog follower has a chance to win a box of our luxury cupcakes for a recipient of their choice for delivery in and around the London area once a month!

All you have to do is become a verified follower and email us with your nomination for the lucky person to receive a giftbox from us, and tell us the reason why. The lucky winner will be drawn at the end of each month and the giftbox duly sent! We may even feature your story on our website!

If this sounds good to you ...and let's face it....who wouldn't want some great cupcakes! then drop us a line at theartisancupcakecompany@gmail.com , marking the email RAOK/NOV2009.

The closing date for this month is 30 November 2009 and the lucky winner will be notified by email later that week.

Good luck everyone .....keep baking !

Love

A new name and a new look....

Hello all and welcome to my blog for today....

I hope you are all well and enjoying the autumnal weather as much as I am. I find there is something beautiful about the changing colours of the leaves and trees and a coolness in the air.It makes me want to snuggle up with a good book or watch a great movie as the nights draw in. Of course it also turns my mind to thoughts of Halloween cupcakes and also reminds us that if the summer has gone so fast that Christmas is not all that far away! a scary thought !

Our latest news is that we have changed our name slightly. I will outline the reasons why but you will see that not an awful lot has changed,and you probably still recognise us from our logo but I wanted to make it clear to all we are still the same great cupcake company!!

We found over the past few months that to be able to stick to our original company name was a bit too restrictive. Let me explain, if we had continued with the name we had we would not have been able to offer our fantastic clients the full range of services that we do and this would have severely curtailed our creative possibilities and this is something we have struggled with.

In the end we decided to alter one word and continue with the same ethos, same fantastic organic ingredients but it means we can provide the decorative touches you have asked for and loved without the problem of the use of the word organic.

We are still 100% wholly committed to using organic ingredients for all our cupcakes and this will not change...it just means we can also provide you with the beautiful sugar rose you would like or other such finishing touches without being seen to compromise any organic standards.

Until of course one day all our decorative touches can be sourced as organic but I fear that is an option for the future..

Rest assured, we are the same but for the name change and a great warm new look to our site thanks to the fantastic Jenny Woodworth at Syrup Design, Manchester who always does such a great job for us! If you need any web products or design you know where to go ! 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our fantastic clients for their custom and returning custom. 

I will update you all again soon...in the meantime...Keep baking !

Love

Melanie
