Baker Profile: Stephanie Brown (Cupcakes & Sundry)

In the days leading up to CupcakeCampTO, we thought we’d introduce you to our bakers by posting baker profiles…

Stephanie Brown, Cupcakes and Sundry

Cupcakes and Sundry is a custom cupcakery located in the tiny village of Port Credit, located in the City of Mississauga just minutes outside Toronto, Ontario.
In March 2008, I started making cupcakes as a hobby in my little apartment kitchen. Every week I’d pump out a different flavour for my friends and colleagues to try and to judge. Everyone has their personal favourite: mine strawberry angel food cake and a new flavour the peanut butter colossal.
At Cupcakes and Sundry we like to swirl and sprinkle, dip and glaze, fill and layer, pipe and top or just make cupcakes simple and sweet. Birthday, holiday or any occasion cupcakes are a perfect dessert after any meal. For cupcake camp I’ll be making (my prize-winning from Cupcake Hero) Blood Orange and Olive Oil cupcakes and Chocolate Cookie Dough cupcakes.

So long, farewell…

With about 3400 cupcakes, almost 100 bakers, 30 volunteers, and nearly 500 tasters we reached our goal of $2000 for Woman Alive!!

We are pretty tired after 7 weeks of prep work and a long day of Cupcake Camp chaos but we think there is a chance you’ll see us again next year! Please send any feedback for this event to CapitalCupcakeCamp@gmail.com! We’ll hold on to all of it so we can make improvements to the process!

If you’d like to get in touch with any of us feel free to find us on Twitter!

Thanks again to everyone for everything! See you at Capital CupcakeCamp 2.0!
