While heading to one of our favorite St. Louis restaurants, House of India, my friends and I noticed that there was a new cupcake bar opening next door! It's going to be called Jilly's Cupcake Bar.
As we peered through the window and started talking about it, Jilly (she seemed to prefer being called Jill) invited us in to take a peek at what was to come. She then went on to describe all the amazing creations that we could expect when they opened.
I told her about the cupcake project and she promised that she would invite me to the grand opening party. I'll be sure to report back on how that goes.
Sounds like most of her cupcakes are going to be stuffed with some kind of filling. Regular readers (well, those who read the previous post) will know that I am not a big fan of large globs of icing, so I'll have to bring my husband along to the opening party to help me finish them off while I focus on the sure to be delicious cakes.
Jill also mentioned that if I bring her some of my creations to try she might name a cupcake after me. That sounds like a challenge to me. Perhaps I'll wait till the project winners are decided and she can have Stef's Cupcake Project Grand Champion Cupcake. That'd be awesome! I could go eat them there if I got burnt out on making them.
cool! i saw that cupcake bar when i was driving by, and was wondering about it. thanks for the info
