Cake Byte: Sweet News from Cakespy
Tuesday, August 19, 2008 
All the sweet news that's fit to print! Here are just a few morsels we had to share:
- Cakespy Cupcake Party! Are you in Seattle? Are you free this Saturday? Well, come on down to Cakespy's Cupcake Party at Cupcake Royale! The fete is a combined celebration of Cakespy.com's 1 year anniversary and Head Spy Jessie's 27th birthday. It's an open house from 6-9 p.m. at Cupcake Royale's Ballard location, and a limited supply of free cupcakes will be on hand. As a bonus, the kind people at Cupcake Royale will be debuting their super secret September flavor a little early--and oh, is it a good one!--in our honor! It's kind of, you know, making us feel like a big deal.
- Email Subscriptions: We are in the process of changing our email newsletter to be sent out once a week rather than every time there is a new post. We'll still be updating the site 2-3 times per week, but you'll receive it in one weekly email. We apologize if you receive more than one update per week as we figure out the technological side of things.
- New Feature! We're adding a new comic strip feature to the site, which will crop up a few times a week. The strip is entitled "Cuppie Capers" and it's about the ongoing adventures of everyone's favorite mischievous little cupcake, L'il Cuppie. Today marks the first strip! Woo!
- Iron Cupcake: A fantastic new online phenomenon! We have not entered one this month since we're one of the prize donors, but check out all of the fantastic Chili Pepper entries here!

I want to go! I miss Cupcake Royale, we got our wedding cupcakes there. (Today is our anniversary so I was totally craving them before reading your post.) Have fun and Happy Birthday!
I have been obsessed with your website and cupcakes ever sence this past week and well I know nothing about cupcakes. I live in Guadalajara,Mexico and I cant find anywhere to buy cool sprinkles. I know this is sort of a dumb question and it has nothing to do with your cake byte post, but I saw the picture and I know I will never find such sprinkles as those...so... do you know how to make sprinkles at home? is it possible?
I'll be celebrating from Melbourne, Australia!!! Have fun eating cupcakes :(!!!!!!
I will see you on Saturday!
I will see you on Saturday!
Cupcake Cartoon Strips are a great idea. I can already see signed and framed copies of your Cartoon Strips in art museums all over the nation ... =)
Mmm Maybe I'll try to make it, seeing as I live only 3 hours away from Seattle! Woo!
Ahh, I wish I could be in Seattle!!
If I wasn't 3,000 miles away, I'd be there. Happy Birthday, Jessie!
I want to celebrate with you! Bring some ice cream to your party and Tina and I will be there in spirit! Happy Birthday to you!
