I'm from Teaneck, New Jersey (Bergen County), so was excited to hear about cupcakes in my old neighborhood and look forward to trying these. The photos are via the Haute Cupcakes website and Facebook page.
From an article in The Bergen Record:
"Every other cupcake company is really cute — really girly with pastel colors," said Artani, 26, of Teaneck. She had an idea for a mango cupcake made with mango whipped frosting, which is now her favorite along with a hummingbird cupcake, made with fresh bananas, pineapple and cream cheese frosting.
After friends tasted the results, including "devilish" chocolate cupcakes and tiramisu cupcakes made with mascarpone frosting, word of mouth did its job.
"People started getting interested, having us for parties," said Iqbal, 30, of Rutherford. Her personal favorite is red velvet. "That's what everyone's asking for," she said. "It's just the richness. Ever since we started making it, it gets better every time."
Artani and Iqbal also aim to make cupcakes fit in with party décor, using candy toppers or tiers, and happily take customer requests, like a recent addition to Haute Cakes' menu, the supersized giant cupcake cake.
