"I'll have Buttercream please"

The City Club now showcases our “2nd Tuesday’s, Wedding & Event Showcase” well every second Tuesday of the month. Our guests are booked and prospective Bride's & Grooms or corporate event meeting planners. They have become very popular and we always receive a good turnout. One of the advantages of attending our 2nd Tuesday is our special guest (vendors) spotlight. This month, we featured Tracey from The Buttercream Studios, whom brought sample cake’s to the open house in addition to her yummy cake samples of Butter Almond cake with Vanilla Butter cream and Organic Apricot Preserves, Belgian Chocolate Cake with Oreo Butter cream and Vanilla Bean Cake with Raspberry Butter cream.
She is a very enthusiastic, creative, and a delightful wedding & event cake baker & designer. One of my favorite things about Tracey is her color plalete she offers to clients for their cakes. It looks something like a paint color palette you would find at Home Depot, very impressive to get that specific color you may be looking for! I find Tracey to be very easygoing, precise, and best of all LOVES her job. Meg, a bride whose wedding is coming up in August at the City Club attended our 2nd Tuesday this month with her florist. She is also using Tracy for her wedding cake and wanted them to meet, as she is having fresh floral on her cake. Again, our 2nd Tuesday’s is a great opportunity to have all vendors meet under one roof, and I being her Wedding Coordinator was there as well.

Please view Tracy’s website for further information about her & Buttercream Studios and more pictures. The link is http://www.thebuttercreamstudio.com/, The Buttercream Studio is also on Facebook and Twitter at tracyacakes.
