YEESS, WE.ARE.OFFICIALLY.BACK!!

I.AM.OVER.THE.MOON to finally announce that LaSinful Cupcake Cafe is officially open for business! So beyond excited to welcome back my loyal, long-time, AND patient customers with open arms and freshly baked goodies. 💕

It's been quite a journey, hasn't it? If you've been around, you may recall I faced some health challenges along the way, and it cannot go without saying that your patience and support have been nothing short of heartwarming❤️. I've sorely missed baking and creating those sinful treats that bring smiles to your sweettooths, but don't fret because "I'm back baaabbbyyy"!

The oven is preheated, my aprons, tools, and gloves are ready, and my passion for baking is stronger than ever (my notebook is overflowing)... My journey to reopening wasn't without its bumps, or several starts and stops; but I'm now armed with a good bill of health, and I'm ready to kick off the Fall and Hoilday season 🍂 🍁 🍃🧛🏽‍♀️☠️🎃🎄🎄🎄 .

THANK YOU for standing by me during this time. I'm already prepping cake and cupcake pans to take your orders, so please stay tuned for Cafe updates, as preparations are already underway for Halloween 👻 🧛🏽‍♀️. I've been able to respond to all emails /inquiries, and I'm on it! So let's start making up for lost time with the deliciousness I know you have been waiting for!

With much gratitude and buttercream hugs,

LaShonna |Owner
LaSinful Cupcake Cafe 🧁🍰🥐🍪

****PLEASE STAY TUNED AS WE TRANSITION TO A WEBSITE THAT WILL ALLOW YOU TO PLACE ORDERS. It will be seamless, but will have a new look!

HAPPY 4TH BIRTHDAY PRINCESS VIOLETTA

A little late on this post...but so happy to share that I had the pleasure of creating sweet treats for this beautiful little girl again for her 4th birthday❤. It's the most rewarding feeling when you gain repeat clients.. Last year, she took us to Coachella with a Kidchella birthday party of her own. This year, she decided to have a Spa Princess Birthday party.... Such a sweetiepie..xoxox

About Me.....

Sooo... This is the part that always seems really tough... Writing "about" yourself is quite tricky and I've put this off for as long as I could. Ok, so, here goes....

My name is LaShonna and my love for sweets --no wait-- my OBSESSION with sweets---stems all the way back to when I was a little tot. The sweet tooth came honest from both my mother and grandmother. I was always in the kitchen with my dear Granny, cooking and baking up a storm. She was an amazing cook and she made sure that I always had my apron on, ready for learning:) As I grew older, I continued to stay in the kitchen under my Granny and my Mom, who by the way is also an amazing cook, and can bake some pretty delicious stuff!! I can taste the caramel cake and lemon glaze cake just thinking about it..... All those years of being in the kitchen with the both of them, stayed in my memory bank. When I started cooking and baking on my own, I was doing a lot of it by memory, which came as a bit of a surprise because I thought I would be burning pots and pans trying to cook like my granny and mom.

When I think back, I remember that holiday baking always was and still is a big tradition in our family. Thanksgiving has always been filled with savory, southern dishes, and Christmas, the most beloved for going all out with the sweet treats. Christmas has always been my absolute favorite time of year, hence the honing of my baking skills to this day. Throw in my family's outrageous sweet tooth (and I'm talking having a dessert with dessert) and my love of chocolate, it was easy to develop a love of baking over the years. Baking for the holidays always kept me trying to improve the taste of each treat. When you have a love for something, you have to desire to make a cookie, cake, or cupcake, taste like you want people to feel when they're enjoying a dessert. I love that feeling of a dessert tasting so divine, that you close your eyes as you take each bite, as if to savor every.last.drop.........

Fast forward to this cupcake thing....the "birth" of LaSinful Cupcake Cafe.... Sooo, my employer relocated our Chicago office all the way down here to West Palm Beach, just shy of three years now. Imagine our shock settling in to a place that is pretty much a polar opposite of our beloved Windy City. Working with my small night crew (yes, we became night shift vampires), doing birthday parties, potlucks, and "just-because" nights, I started bringing in my cupcakes for the team to enjoy. To me, my baking has always just been baking. It's something that I love, something that relaxes me, and something that I love to see others enjoy. I started receving hints from my coworkers who started looking forward to what cupcake I was bringing in next. This of course challenged me to bake different flavors each time. That soon led to "you need to sell these", to "you really need to open a shop or something", to "LaShonna, when are you going to open a cupcake shop?".. Seeing as we all have day jobs, I really didn't consider it seriously, and didn't put much more thought into it.

Slowly but surely, after three years of being lightly poked and proded, I figured with so many asking for cupcakes for personal and/or special occassions, it was time to do something about it. Hence, LaSinful Cupcake Cafe was born. I have my dear friend's mother, Mamma Charlie, to thank for the name. I wanted to find a name that was unique and kind of a play off of my own name. Mamma Charlie told me that my cupcakes are "sinful" and that they should be called LaSinful. Annndddd I'm pretty sure she took it to heart because she started calling me LaSin as if that was my name.. lol.. I went back to work, and I heard the word "sinful" used to describe my cupcakes several more times, and thats what made the name stick for me. This has been such a surprise to me, that I'm going to take this journey one dozen of cupcakes at a time:) Above is a picture of me and my Granny... how I love her so.. This just goes to show you how long I've been in the kitchen .....
