CUPCAKE ICE CREAM

CUPCAKES IN ICE CREAM?

OH MY, Bettie you are a sweet scientist!

Bettie has gone creative again with her newest invention -

CUPCAKE ICE CREAM!

She takes her gourmet cupcakes, buttercream and other fixings and blends them into her fresh creamy ice cream that she makes from scratch using real heavy cream and sugar! What you get is flavorful chunks of cupcake or sweet bits of buttecream and unique flavors!

Just like our Cupcake flavors change every week, so will our ice cream flavors so keep stopping back to see what Bettie is whipping up~

The Cupcake Ice Cream will be available at our Saratoga Cupcakery or at our Colonie Center Cupcake Stand. Bettie's Cakes will be opening their 5th location in Loudonville at Hoffman's Playland the end of May 2011. It will have that retro furniture you have grown to love like at our premier location in Saratoga and our signature pink & blue walls!

XOXO,

Bettie

Bettie and the CAKE BOSS show at Proctors!

Bettie's Cakes sponsored Buddy's Show at Proctors -

Cee Cee and Dee Dee were rocking for cupcake sales that night, Buddy got everyone in the mood for cake!

What were Bettie and Buddie discussing? Cupcakes? Cupcake Buses? FONDANT? :)

Bettie and Buddy posing for photos! What a great guy!

Bettie had the huge pleasure of meeting CAKE BOSS on Thursday, November 4th for his amazing show at Proctors! Bettie's Cakes was the proud sponsor of his show so Dee Dee and Cee Cee made an appearance! Buddy performed to a huge audience, decorated a wedding cake on stage and there was even a wedding proposal from someone in the audience!

Afterwards, Buddy signed autographs for what we think was 3 hours...what a guy to not turn anyone away!  His show was truly inspiring and we will continue watching his show faithfully!
