Columbus Georgia Bridal Expo with Funky Monkey Cakes

Bridal Expo and Funky Monkey Cakes!



Good Evening Friends-
Boy o Boy my feet are killing me! (giggling)
Today we visited with some of the best Brides and Grooms out there!
Funky Monkey Cakes was able to share pictures and kind words with everyone who had a question or wanted to learn more about us! My favorite part of the day was seeing our guests reactions once they tried the minicupcakes. We wanted our guests to try Fondant. We normally get many questions about the taste of Fondant and today we brought it to them. We use Satin Ice Rolled Fondant. It is one of the best in America and tastes just so sweet and tender. http://www.satinfinefoods.com/testimonials.htm <--Please click on this link to learn from top bakers about the Satin Ice product that Funky Monkey Cakes uese in all our cakes) I was shocked to learn that some Brides have been told in the past that Fondant is not for consumption...only for the "look". WOW...No..that is not true guys. Fondant is more than just the "look"...it is delicious and adds a whole new spin on tasty treats. FMC will continue this in our shows...so our customers and guests will each have the opportunity to taste what Fondant is like and learn a little more. It's really a great medium and allows for beautiful stunning artwork to come forth in sugar. Thank you for stopping by our booth and visiting with us. We really enjoyed every smile and every hand shake. We look forward to serving you. If you have any quetions, please write or call us!
Warmest Wishes- Iris

We only use the best...and Satin Ice is the best fondant I've laid my hands on. It's sweet, soft and very delicious! I've attached a link to their site so our customers can quickly access the information and learn more about some of the best products we use in each of their orders.

Sweet Dreams!

Funky Monkey Cakes' New Logo

Hello World!
We now have our very own logo! Check it out!


And it's been a while......since I last posted in our blog. (woosh!)
We have been so incredibly busy (which is a good thing) and I've been bad at writing in the blog since the pick up of new orders. BUT...I will make good on writing again.
We recently added about 6 new cakes to the portfolio since I last wrote. Yesterday We delivered a beautiful 4 tier Wedding Cake in Columbus Georgia.

The top and bottom tier are White Cake with Strawberry fruit filling (YUMMERS!) and the 2nd and 3rd tier are Chocolate with Butter Cream light filling. Her colors were so pretty! I loved the aqua/brown/ivory colors she chose for her layouts of just about everything! She called us today, the day after her Wedding to let me know how thankful she was for her cake and how OH SO DELICIOUS it was.
The month of September is looking crazy busy for us too.
Stay tuned for better blogs, and pictures and crazy adventures!
Sweet Dreams-
Iris
