We will get you some better information on Phoebe's Cupcakes soon, but this part of their latest press release was especially interesting to me:
Ms. Walters decided after the first hour and after the original expected turnout of 1,500 people was reached, to keep the oven going, even though the Chicago location wasn't at full capacity yet, and said, "It was such a nice day and I didn't want to disappoint anyone after the first 1,500 people were served."
People waiting in line remained patient and were enthusiastic about Phoebe's Cupcakes after trying the cupcakes. Said Leonard of Chicago, "I would stand in a pile of glass for an hour to get one of these cupcakes. I love them."
Two local Chicagoans won Phoebe's Golden Cupcake, an expensive, ultra premium, cupcake made with real gold topping. The two winners received certificates entitling them to a free cupcakes a week for life. Lien, the first winner, who works near the Chicago location, walked back into the store with gold still on her face, and said simply, "I think I won." Geoff, the other winner, also remained calm, but his girlfriend jumped into the air screaming upon seeing the golden cupcake in the box.
While Phoebe's Cupcakes provides affordable luxury with its price of $2.50 for a single cupcake bought in the Chicago store, Phoebe's Golden Cupcake is a very expensive to make, premium gourmet cupcake available for special order that is offered for weddings and other catered events at $20 per cupcake, with a minimum size order of a dozen cupcakes. There is also a silver cupcake available and cake size cupcake available for weddings and parties.
According to their Twitter account, they will have vegan cupcakes soon, and this is what's on tap this week:
"Strawberry Shortcake, Peanut Butter Fudge Brownie, Salted Caramel Tiramisu, Mint Chocolate, Red Velvet, Chocolate & Vanilla."
