Cupcakes are not just for Kids anymore!

June 22, 2010 - PRLog -- There is an explosion of cupcake stand-alone bakeries across the country.  Big cities such as Chicago, NY, LA and Detroit have introduced such businesses and these owners often find lines outside the door.  Grand Rapids is joining the big cities with its first cupcake shoppe.  Cupcake by Design.

Jennifer Kok along with her husband Brian, have owned and operated Cookies by Design in Grand Rapids, Michigan for the past 12 years. Cookies by Design are known in West Michigan for providing a superior product with only the finest ingredients, exceptional talent, creativity and excellent customer service. We have taken these qualities and are now adding them to a new line, Cupcakes.   Cupcake by Design is located with in Cookies by Design at Knapp’s Corner, 1971 E. Beltline NE, Grand Rapids, MI 49525.

“We are so excited to launch this new gourmet cupcake line. A lot of thought and my favorite part, taste testing went into each perfected cupcake recipe”, says Jennifer Kok, owner.

What is it about a cupcake that is so enticing? Is it that they are small enough to eat alone, or big enough to share? Maybe it is because in the hustle and bustle of our busy lives, cupcakes bring you back to your childhood days. The delight of having a little cake all to yourself, peeling off the wrapper just like opening a little present. In today’s world, cupcakes have grown up.  Cupcake by Design will offer flavors such as Rocky Road, Give me Smore, Toasted Almond, Raspberry Delight, Pina Colada and many more.  Every month, Cupcake by Design will introduce a “cupcake of the month”.  The cupcake of the month will have a seasonal flair such as Strawberry Shortcake for the month of June.  

You can stop in daily for a wide variety of fresh-baked cupcakes, or call and have them hand delivered for any occasion.  Maybe you need a treat for an office meeting, to celebrate a birthday, baby shower or wedding, or just need a break from the daily grind.
Cupcakes are perfect for a mid morning coffee break, or with a cup of afternoon tea and a wonderful dessert for a wedding reception.

Even though cupcakes have grown up and so has the audience, the question is … do you still eat the frosting first?
