Feature Friday - The Cupcake Queen

When I first met Tara, I was touched by the origin story of her company. She share with me,
“The Cupcake Queen, LLC is founded and operated by me and my amazing family. Being surrounded by good eats as a child, as well as through adulthood, my mother, Pauline Thorpe, was always sure to have a wholesome meal and sweet treats to top things off. Mom used only the freshest, finest ingredients along with a healthy dose of her love to warm the hearts and taste buds of her family. The Cupcake Queen takes those same values in assuring that our treats meet the expectations of all our customers.
In March of 2011, I sadly lost my mother Pauline. Feeling a void and emptiness, and on a whim, I decided to get in the kitchen and bake some treats for my family. That void I felt from her loss turned into comfort as I could hear the whisper of her voice saying “You’ve got too much of this. You need a little more of that.” and from those few words I felt connected to my mom again. From that moment on I knew I needed to continue her legacy by warming the hearts and taste buds of many just as she did. The next week I signed up for a Wilton Cake Decorating class and The Cupcake Queen, LLC was born.”
