About Pull Apart Cakes and Sweet Carolina
What is a “Pull Apart Cake” you may ask..? A Pull Apart Cake is made by arranging batches of cupcakes into a unique shape before frosting and decorating all of them at the same time. The best part about these pull-apart cupcake cakes is that they don’t need to be cut, making them a perfect grab-and-go treat.
At Sweet Carolina Bakeshop we get requests for these cakes all the time. I mean, ALL. THE. TIME. So, we thought it might be fun to share with you some of the tricks of the trade so you can make your own Pull Apart Cake at home and surprise your family with your masterful creation. And the best part is, whether you’re hosting a birthday party or a shower, a pull-apart cupcake cake is a great way to satisfy a whole bunch of guests, without having to worry about bringing out the forks, knives and plates. So join us at the Bakeshop, on May 21 from 6-7:30 to learn how to make your own Pull Apart Cake.

About Sweet Carolina and Mother’s Day
If you’ve followed us for any amount of time, you’ve heard me say many times I owe a large part of my success to my Mother, and my Grandmother. My Mother, a serial entrepreneur and role model. And my Grandmother, a professional grandmother and master cake maker/recipe curator. I can say with absolute certainty, without the influences of these two wonderful women I would not be where I am today – which is usually covered in flour, while baking and frosting cupcakes, running a business and trying to be a Mother myself.
So, it is with no small amount of personal pride we are offering you a way to pay back the Mothers in your life with a little bit of help from us. Join us on May 6, from 6-7, at Sweet Carolina Bakeshop to learn how to create and design a Mother’s Day themed cupcake bouquet, you can even bring your Mother.

About Easter Cupcakes, my Grandmother, and Sweet Carolina Bakeshop
Y'all have heard me talk about how my Grandmother and her recipes inspired me to start Sweet Carolina Bakeshop. Well this class is direct extension of that inspiration. Every Easter of my childhood, my Grandmother would make an Easter Bunny cake, complete with big ol' floppy ears, whiskers and a bowtie. In this class we will share that creative spirit with you, in the form of cupcakes. While we aren't limiting your creativity in how you will decorate your cupcakes, we will slip in a few tricks of the trade, gleaned from my Grandmother's kitchen and our years of experience that are sure to make you an Easter cupcake star.

Fudge Buttercream Frosting. Sounds delicious doesn't it? Well, it is... Adapted from my Grandmother's very popular chocolate fudge recipe, this rich and creamy frosting tops our Classic Chocolate Cupcake, making it the most popular cupcake on our Classics menu.
Get creative and combine our Fudge Buttercream Frosting with Peanut Butter to make our Peanut Butter Cup flavor, swirl it 50/50 with Vanilla Buttercream to make a Black and White, fill a Whoopie Pie, top a Vanilla Cake, eat it with a spoon, or use your imagination to come up with your own new flavor combo. This kit comes with detailed instructions, a pastry bag and all the dry ingredients needed. You supply the butter.
Our Classic Vanilla Cupcake would just be plain ol' vanilla without our Vanilla Buttercream Frosting. Easily one of the most requested cupcakes from our Classics menu, the Classic Vanilla owes its creamy smoothness to this frosting.
We also use this delicious frosting as filling for our Whoopie Pies, on Chocolate cakes, and as a base for frosting some of our other cupcakes, like Banana Pudding, Snickerdoodle, Wedding Cake and Low Country Lemon. Now with our Vanilla Buttercream Frosting Kit, and one of our Baking Kits, you can make all of these favorite Sweet Carolina flavors right in your own kitchen. This kit comes with detailed instructions, a pastry bag and all the dry ingredients needed. You supply the butter.
