New Flavor: Salted Caramel!

So, check this out… Starting with our famous chocolate cake, we topped it with a caramel (house made) buttercream, and razzle-dazzled the caramel on top of the icing as well.

Tee & Cakes Featured in 5280!

Tee & Cakes was asked to create a “classic” wedding cake for 5280, a slick Denver monthly magazine. The feature is called “Warm Reception.”
When the weather turns frightful, Colorado brides take their nuptials inside, where they can create a cozy, intimate ambience. But just because the party has gone indoors doesn’t mean brides shouldn’t take a cue from Colorado’s snowy outdoor scene. Here, three bridal visions that will inspire your winter wedding.

Valentine’s Day Sweet Treats

Valentine’s Day Sweet Treats

Here’s a list of most of the things we’ll be doing for Valentine’s Day. Many of the items will be available about a week before the big day. This year it falls on a Sunday, and being closed on that day, all the magic will have to happen on Saturday the 13th. Pre-ordering is highly recommended. 720-406-7548. Love & Cupcakes.

Inspiration is Everywhere



Our baker, Rachel, came across this awesome magazine illustration of the many mustaches that are possible. Each day we are doing a different stache/cupcake combo for the month of October for a WONDERFUL CHARITY. This style is called "Imperial." Damn skippy. Each time someone buys a cupcake with a STACHE on it we will donate proceeds to this great cause. Today was beer cupcakes with an IMPERIAL STACHE on it. Truly inspirational.

We could use your help. This is not the only way to help. Please pledge a couple of bucks -- that's all -- to help this cause out. It can't possibly hurt you to shell out a few bucks. CLICK HERE to see our participants on team Tee & Cakes & Staches.

TEE & CAKES TAKE THE CAKE. AND EAT IT, TOO!








Tee & Cakes takes 1st in Denver Cupcake Eating Contest.

Back in June Tee & Cakes had a cupcake eating contest and Jimmy "Jimin Eater" Mares lost by a narrow cupcake margin. And it was so close the sanctioning organization issues a sudden death elimination. Jimmy lost by just a little bit again. This never sat well with us, so we decided to sponsor his comeback in the competitive eating world for the Shoppe's 4th of July cupcake eating contest.

The rules state that there must be an eater: Jimmy. And an "assistant," which clearly would be Tee & Cakes co-owner and Cupcake Cram co-creator Brian Wood.

Here is some of the fun that went down during, before and after Jimmy and I's victory. 24.5 Cupcakes in 5 minutes.

Golf cupcakes + squirrel = happy place


Even though the "Tee" in Tee & Cakes is named for our apparel line, we sure do have a soft spot for golf. And squirrels. This wonderful scene portrayed here is from one super customer who decided to capture a few of her favorite things in a photograph. It took our Father's Day Cupcakes to a whole new level. As you can tell, her spirit animal is the woodland critter and the way she balanced the golf, cupcakes and the common tree squirrel is like none other we have ever seen.

"Dreams Come True at Tee & Cakes"


Jenny -- The Current Recipient of the esteemed EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH TITLE -- pictured here in her homemade bacon costume, hand-crafted for Halloween, but eventually doubled as a promo for our legendary bacon cupcake, is having a birthday on Monday. All she ever wanted from Tee & Cakes was to "frost my own cupcake." Days, weeks, months even passed and her requests went virtually unheard. Jenny, whom we have no trouble at all calling "Sunshine" seemed to shine less and less as the days where her frosting a cupcake seemed almost like a dream to never come true.

But as she warmed the chef's heart over time with her Employee of the Month characteristics, it seemed appropriate she frost her "special" cupcake on her birthday.


So here Jenny is with extreme frosting focus creating her very own special cupcake. It's her interpretation of Tee & Cakes famous triple chocolate cupcake. This is one picture, but if it was a movie it would be like five minutes long.



Assistant pastry chef Rachel supervises the operation, while Jenny, once again beams with the sunshine she is famous for. Rachel commented "Dreams come true at Tee & Cakes."



Pictured here is the completed cupcake, which went on to sell for 5.00 (about 2x the amount of our normal price!) cash to one of our favorite customers, Jean Paul. It could have sold for a lot more, of course. It's actually worth 9 sunny calendar days of the year.

But all that aside, what does the chef think about Jenny's special cupcake frosting?

Random Cupcake Shots







We got a new lens for our camera (well it's quite old, but it has been unearthed after many years asleep in a box) and we are now testing it to see how close the focus can get so we can pretend to see what it's like to live on a cupcake.
