We never thought when we opened our little cupcake shop almost 3 years ago that’d we’d meet as many absolutely crazy awesome people as we do, or that we’d see so many bizarre things. We’ve gotten pretty used to it at this point, but yesterday we saw something that left us absolutely speechless.

We’re not even sure what to say, except that we’re completely flattered. And yes, we asked if they were real. They were. And they were done at Powerhouse Tattoo in Montclair.

We’re honestly not sure what anyone can do to top this one. Congrats, Matt and Jeff. You guys win at everything.

We previously posted behind the scenes shots of the Planet Verge photoshoot, but here are some of the official photos featuring our cupcakes! We think they came out amazing.

***Exciting News!***

Cupcakefest 2010 is officially set for Saturday, June 26th. SAVE THE DATE! More info to come shortly. Please RSVP on our Facebook page!

Everyone, we will be accepting the same type of donations as last year’s event.  As always, Cupcakefest is free to attend, but we hope you’ll please bring any type of supplies that could be used by the shelter—pet food, cat litter, old blankets, pet toys, cleaning supplies, etc.  We’ll also be accepting cash donations, and everything will be donated to the Passaic Animal Shelter.

Remember, Cupcakefest is about awesome music and yummy cupcakes, but even more importantly, it’s about taking care of animals in need!

Check out Planet Verge’s video interview with 30 Seconds to Mars. Planet Verge was kind enough to bring along some of our cupcakes to the band since they’re all vegan and probably don’t get awesome cupcakes all that often! Thanks Joelle!
