Congratulations! Press release here:
Short Street Cakes, Asheville’s source for all-natural, scratch-made, southern-style birthday cakes, wedding cakes, and cupcakes, announces its Second Anniversary Mardi Gras Party, scheduled for Saturday, March 5, the evening before Asheville’s Downtown Mardi Gras Parade. Featuring specials on King Cakes, Cupcakes, free beer and wine and an after-hours Dance Party featuring beloved wedding DJ Steadylove, the Second Anniversary Mardi Gras party will be an opportunity for the Shop to thank the community for two wonderfully successful years in their current location.
The party will also launch some new-for-2011 ventures: newly expanded hours at the Cake Shop begin March 6th. Short Street Cakes will now be open Monday through Saturday from 8am until 6pm, and on Sundays from 10am til 2pm, with an expanded range of whole cake and cupcake flavors available without an advance order.
The Cake Shop will also be launching two new kinds of events: “Old-School Cake School,” a series of cake baking courses offered to adults where participants, over the course of a 2 ½ hour class, can bake a cake from the Short Street Cakes menu, from start to finish, and take the cake home with them at the end of the course.
“Old School Cake School” will also be available to schedule for private birthday parties, where children can bake a batch of cupcakes together to celebrate a birthday. Call the Cake Shop at 505-4822 for more details.
Short Street Cakes is committed to providing the freshest and yummiest Southern style cakes ever. Short Street Cakes uses all-natural ingredients, and is committed to purchasing local ingredients such as locally –raised eggs, locally milled organic flour, fresh organic edible flowers in season, and locally grown berries and fruits.
