Snow Snow Snow....

Well, we prayed for it at Christmas, and 6 weeks later here it is! Its all you hear about on the news- which makes a welcome change from money doom and gloom- and you've never seen a happier child than the moment they hear that school is closed!

Even we have held our hands up and taken a day off (baking) today, opting for the tedium of paperwork in front of the fire, rough with the smooth eh!?

So as a welcome distraction from spreadsheets and other boring things (we're bakers, not number crunchers!) I thought I would pop on and update on here... as well as our daily appearance on Facebook and now Twitter... add us, follow us, poke us, become a fan of us!

We have some exciting things going on behind the scenes here at Fancie Towers and can't wait to be able to tell you all- watch this space!!

We also have an update from Fancie's friend Cindy Cheung, her talents/ Cupcake obsession are massively amazing and her website is a real treat! Between our own website and Cindy's, you will never be bored at work again! 


Thanks again Cindy- Cupcakes winging their way to you! :)

So, enough rambling. Thanks to everyone who follows our Blog, and all our Facebook and Twitter friends- get in touch, we love to hear from you all! xx

Bye Bye diet!


Greetings Cupcake fans!

So, January is all but over which means only one thing... we can now admit that we never had any real intention of sticking to the New Years diet- Phew!!

So, back to normality -well as normal as it gets in Fancie land- with Valentines day fast approaching (and my Birthday as it happens... gifts? No really... OK if you insist!) the Fancie Girls are on a mission to spread Love and Joy throughout Sheffield. 

We are celebrating Singledom as much as we are celebrating Luuurve and have set ourself a challenge....

So... if there is anyone out there planning on a proposal this Valentines day then get in touch. We would love to assist you by delivering the question on a cake- for free!*

We can't wait to hear from you!

*4 cupcakes free for first person to contact us- delivery

Merry Christmas Cupcakes!



So the nation spoke and Fancie listened/ baked. Your favourite Cupcakes are now available in a rich fruit cake with a fondant topping, which means they will last for up to a year... (as if anyone could resist them for that long!)

This means that you can buy your gift boxes and give them out any time over the Christmas period. So get your orders in and if you're super generous you can keep some in reserve for the Carol singers- You'll make their day!

Email your orders to cupcakes@fancie.co.uk and one of Fancies Christmas elves will be in touch in a trice.. Oooh, it's just too exciting! xx
