Well, you can tell we've had another baby, I have only managed a couple of blogs!

But Hugo is now 8 months old and thankfully things are starting to settle down,

(it has been a challenge though)

 

A lot has happened since previous blogs, far to much to bore you with on here but a few milestones have come & gone- Peek-a-boo at Seaforth had it's first birthday last month, the website has now reached 20,000 visitors, with over 40,000 page views!!!!

Peek-a-boo's Facebook page is one "like" away from 200!!!

as I have said before if they all bought just one cupcake I'd be happy :-)

 

 I have been asked to supply several different businesses which is exciting and keeps the orders flowing nicely.

 

A reminder that pre-ordered cupcakes (minimum box of 12) are available from the shop for daily collection, contact me via, email, text or phone to order!

 

Mother's day is coming soon Sunday 12th May I have already had a few very organised customers place orders. I will be doing gift boxed cupcakes which were very popular last year along with a few hand made sweet gifts!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have also had quite a few more wedding cake orders, along with more and more companies ordering cakes to promote their business/products or celebrate staff performance or company birthdays, as I say "what better way to celebrate your business or product than to eat it"

Email me with your business or product details and I will show you what we can create!!!

 

As always the feedback and compliments have been fantastic, if you have ordered over the last few months and I have not had chance to get back to you to thank you for your order, please let me take this opportunity to thank you and I hope you or who ever you surprised thoroughly enjoyed your Peek-a-boo creation!

 

 

Peek-a-boo grows best on recommendations, word of mouth and Google searches, although Facebook is working great, so many customers are getting in touch as they have seen my cakes on a friends facebook page or friend of a friend so head to www.facebook.com/www.peekaboopartycakes.com and please remember to "like" the page, not just the pictures:-) as well as "sharing" cakes you like to your Facebook page. 

 

There are too many cakes to put on here, so here are a few of my favourite from the past few months.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are plenty more to see on the website or Facebook page.

 

If you have had a cake and it is not on here that does not mean I do not like it :-)

I can't put them all on here!

 

 

 

As always, take care and enjoy the rest of the week,

We have got a lot to catch up on, sorry if it is a bit long!!

October was a great month with a lot of exciting cakes and really nice customers as always!! and plenty of fantastic orders coming in already for the next few months which is very reassuring.

 

I have received a few great corporate orders for company celebrations lately which is something I am looking at promoting more, so if your company has a celebration of any kind coming up pass on my details.

(There could be a cupcake gift box voucher in it for you if they order)

 Christmas orders are coming in thick and fast, again a few big name companies have ordered for staff gifts and also to give out to suppliers and customers.

One of the biggest sellers so far are the Christmas Cupcake gift box

 

There is also an option of having one of the cupcakes with your company logo

 and Christmas message as an edible disc.

Please contact me for more details.

A couple of orders have been placed already to have them as Christmas gifts for teachers for the end of term, they are also great for colleagues or friends,

 (more personal than a box of chocs from the supermarket)

 

I have a few dates already fully booked out for December so get in quick.

The Giant Christmas Cupcake is also a great option as a celebration for: office's, team's, staffroom's, Mothers groups or just about any other excuse you could think of.

 

 

These can also be ordered with additional Christmas tree Cupcakes

 

 

 

 

I am having a test run this afternoon it should fit atleast 100 cupcakes ago insted of the 24 ago I have been using, which will be great for the 2000 cupcakes I already

have on order for December!!!!!

I promised in the last blog that I would update the "Testimonies" on my website, which I have collated and will do soon, for now I will list a few on here.

Here are a few of my favourite orders from last month:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our new addition to the family is doing great, Hugo is well over his reflux which we are very grateful to Katherine who is a chiropractor with a practice next door but one from my shop (one in the city too). We are telling anybody who will listen how great she was with Hugo, a lot of people have told us since, about the benefits they have had for themselves and their children from chiropractors so take a look  

 

If anybody is wondering what the poor effort of a gingery, blondy shadow above my top lip is,

I am supporting "MOVEMBER" It is a great charity supporting Mens Health, you basically try!!!!! and grow a "Mo" for the whole of November and hopefully get a few sponsors along the way.

If anybody remembers my atrocious attempts of growing a "Mo" in my late teens & early 20's they know it will not be a masculine lip rug or

 handle bar "Mo" but a poor attempt of a dodgy milk "Mo"

which will make me look like my dad!!!

 Check out the link below to my "Mo Bro" page for more details and to donate to this great cause, I will do a Mo cake for the biggest donation I receive through the link below which will be announced at the end of the event!
If anybody wants to join me let me know, ladies can become 'Mo Sista's' too (no need to grow a Mo, just support Mo Bro's)

Hugo is my first supporter!!!

As allways, thank you for taking a look at my blog, please pass it on to anybody you think may be interested.

Peek-a-boo's Facebook page is the best way to keep up to date with my latest cakes, please click on and like my page:

 

I never imagined how many orders I would receive through Facebook so please "like" my page, my cakes and even share them to your page to spread the word more :-)

 

Take care

Have a great day
