CUPCAKES CUPCAKES CUPCAKES CUPCAKES CUPCAKES CUPCAKES AND MORE CUPCAKES

The most versatile and amazing little cake in the world- THE CUPCAKE.

We celebrate cupcakes EVERY SATURDAY at The Two Dames in Kilkenny.

I love making these truly devine and mouth watering Cupcakes because they are so versatile. They can be decorated for any and every occasion. I made 'L' plate cupcakes for my now sister-in-law for her hen night, a little treat and gift for all the ladies to take home. I made Bunny rabbits for Easter, i made black and amber cupcakes last year for Kilkenny during The All-Ireland Hurling Championships, which we won! My imagination is endless, who knows what i will have on this weeks cupcakes! I make them for weddings, i have a new 7tier wedding cupcake stand, now that is serious hard work but the end results are amazing, there is so much you can do especially if working on a large budget! Cupcakes are for everyone and make a fantastic gift and treat for family and friends.

Light, Fresh, Gluten-free and fantastic for sharing.

The Amazing Roulade. It is so versatile and works fantastic at a dinner party. After a heavy meal this is the best dessert. It is so light and the fresh fruits are packed with flavour that you feel good even if you return for seconds!

Happy Birthday to us!

We couldnt possibly celebrate turning two on our own so i decided to dedicate our cake of the day to the special occasion, I have more fun baking and decorating these cakes, i find it hard to cut them. It had to be a pink and red combo, two of my favourite colours, i just hope my customers enjoyed eating it as much as i did making it!

CHRISTENING CAKE OF AN ANGEL

My Nieces Christening cake took a long time to prepare, crystalised handmade rose petals, all the decorations came from an american company courtesy of my friend who runs an amazing kitchenware store, 'Cooks Haven' Kieran Street Kilkenny. There are baby pegs, baby talk love heart sweets, a sleeping baby, a rocking horse and 3tiers of delicious vanilla fudge.
The Angel herself, Keeva. She is eager to take after her aunty in the kitchen as Junior Chef!

VANILLA FUDGE CAKE
Where to start on this cake , too good to cut but too good not to cut!!! It's a dilemma. Vanilla fudge cake is terrific for every occasion, it stays fresh for 3/4 days, it freezes well, it is an absolute winner.

THE WHITE CHOCOLATE WEDDING CAKE

This wedding cake i made for a family friend, it was serious work but worth it. Chocolate biscuit cake wrapped in the smoothest white chocolate, drippping in the tastiest strawberries dipped in white chocolate. Three tiers of chocolate biscuit, each one covered in a dark chocoate ganache, then coated 3times in white chocolate. Pure indulgence, every chocolate lovers wildest dream.

WICKED CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE.
This is truly death by chocolate. It is insanely intense, an absolute treat at any time of the day or night. Depending on your mood it will fulfill any want!

PISTACHIO, ROSEWATER, & LIME CAKE with fresh berries.

This cake i made especially for my mam on mothers day.

It is made using irish natural yogurt and has a sweet lime crust. So light, perfect after a Sunday Lunch. I served it with natural yogurt and honey.

ST. PATRICKS DAY CUPCAKES, green, white and gold dust.

St. Patricks Day Cupcakes, green, white and gold dust. These cupcakes rocked, i love themeing my cupcakes, it makes it all very exciting, next is Easter, i may put my thinking cap on now! These were so much to fun to make, it took a full week of racking my brains how to create my paddys day cupcakes, on the last hour it dawned on me, and these are the delicious finished product.

IT IS THE MOST AMAZING BIRTHDAY CAKE, GIRLIE AND CHOCOLATE. DIVINE

This cake was so much fun to bake, the ideas for the cake kept flowing. It was my friends 30th birthday so instead of buying her a gift i said i would bake her a cake instead. It was a 2tier chocolate fudge cake, i didnt want to make one large cake so thats why i chose to make two smaller cakes in a tiered effect. The pink roses just set it off and brought it all together. It was girlie and CHOCOLATE, fantastic combination. I love making cakes for friends but i tend to get very shy about it too.

IT'S RAINING IT'S POURING!!!

I woke up one typical Irish morning to find it was raining, again! Ha you have to love our weather so i thought i would make a cake to celebrate the rain. It was actually alot of fun because i knew the customers would get a kick out of it. It went down an absolute treat. It is my mothers recipe that is a massive hit in the shop. Divine Vanilla fudge cake.

CUPCAKE MANIA AT THE TWO DAMES

Cupcakes are the best gift idea no matter what the occasion.My Brother-in-law turned a youthful 39 so i put together cupcakes to mark the occasion. They are so tasty, so rich and a pure indulgence. They are topped with rich vanilla fudge frosting, equal amounts of cake to frosting, a pure energy rush.

BARACK OBAMA APPRECIATION AT THE TWO DAMES

When Barack Obama was elected as President in the US i decided i had to create cupocakes for the very special occasion. I wasnt sure how best to put together a tribute but before i knew it this image of stripes and stars came to me. Whatever the occasion i try to mark it every Cupcake Saturday in The Two Dames Coffee Boutique. They were vanilla cupcakes with canilla frosting, delicious!

The alternative to "The Birthday Cake"

My friend was another year younger!!!!! So i decided bright pink cupcakes was the best and tastiest option for her Birthday Cake. It cuts out on plates and mess, you can unravel the cupcake from the cases that i cut out individually and use that as your plate, great on the go, easy to eat if standing and amazing to look at. These are definitely the most versatile item on my menu. Can be created in every colour in the rainbow and the choice of toppings are endless, very seasonal and can adapt to suit all occasions - weddings, engagement parties, christenings, holidays, birthdays, going- away party..............................................
The edible pink glitter i bought when i was in New York, so it only comes out for special occasions.

Twins Birthday Cake.

This birthday cake was alot of fun to make. The sweets on the cake are especially for childrens cakes, i got them from a supplier in America. I have used them on 2 Christening cakes and now this birthday cake for one year old twins. Each love heart sweet has a different note printed on each- rock a bye, lil angel, sweet dreams, baby face, new mom....................
It is a vanilla fudge cake which gets more delicious with age, always tastes better on the second day!

What is hot today? Devils Chocolate Food Cake with a Marshmallow and Coconut Frosting

This cake is an absolute luxury. The richness of the chocolate cake alongside the gooooiness of the frosting, it is two wild textures that create this insanely rich piece of heaven. The frosting is identical to the centre of a Caffreys Snowball, a blast from most of our childhoods. It cannot be gotten anywhere else i know of, like all of my cakes, i home bake every single thing on my menu, i cannot abide by mass produced flavourless cakes and treats.

Gluten-free Treats, not for the faint-hearted!

Gluten-free products does not automatically mean it will be lacking in flavour or texture. In the Two Dames you will find outstanding Gluten-free treats, from wonderful fudge - Vanilla, Treacle, Fruit and Nut flavour, and also chocolate Macaroons and scrumptious Greek and Italian Almond biscuits. These treats are something small to enjoy with a velvet Latte or a delicious Black Forest Herbal Tea. Life is about choices, we offer never ending choices at the Two Dames, we like to keep our customers happy and intrigued.

Edible Window Displays

We take alot of pride in our window displays. Our main aim is to make it as edible as possible. The super-sized Cappacino and Hot Chocolate with marshmallows certainly make passer-bys mouth water, not to mention the ceramic cupcakes that are overflowing with dollymixture sweets. We all eat with our eyes but we try and take it one step further by ensuring our food truly tastes as good if not better than it looks.
