Straight from the source! We talked with Mignon Francois, of The Cupcake Collection, and got the scoop on their flavors for FALL. Be bold with these seasonal treats on your big day!
What are some fall flavors The Cupcake Collection is featuring this season?
“Our popular fall flavors include some of our classics like carrot cake and sweet potato, which is a big hit during Thanksgiving; we can barely keep them in the door. I’ve really been thinking of doing something with pumpkin! You never know with me, I like to play on the seasons and stay creative. We’re going to roll out our winter flavors at the beginning of December. We have quite a few holiday cupcakes: egg nog, gingerbread, hot cocoa which is a chocolate cupcake infused with cayenne pepper, and we do a variety of flavors with peppermint. The holidays are always a fun time to experiment with limited edition flavors that people wait all year for.”
What are cupcake/cake decorations that are elegant and don’t just scream FALL?
“With our cakes in particular, we’ve noticed a lot of brides want elegant and simple with a little flair. Our rosette and ruffle cakes have been really popular. Most have opted to keep them white or ivory with a small pop of color like gold or blush. That provides the elegance they need no matter the season.”
What are trends/styles you are seeing for the fall/winter season?
“We’ve noticed a lot of woodland themed weddings; brides want to capture that rustic, timeless look.”
