Our First International Order

I recently received a phone call from a lady in the States. She wanted to surprise her dad at work with Cupcakes for his 65th birthday (yay!!!). At first, I was not sure if I should take the order as there are all sorts of things to consider like the logistics of delivery (it so happens that we currently don’t do delivery, unless I am free and have no other orders for the day), mode of payment from overseas and all, the list goes on....


Well, it turns out she is an extremely lovely lady and we decided to honor the order of 4 boxes of Cupcakes and a kilogram of our signature star cookies. Since it was our first international order, and all my other orders for the day had been completed and picked up by the respective clients, I decided to deliver the cupcakes and cookies to her dad personally.


The look on her fathers face……….ahh, nothing short of PRICELESS!!! He was astounded by the gesture from his kids abroad and she later informed me that "....he was extremely grateful and almost had a heart attack from such a pleasant surprise."


I am sure you know that I do not want any of our client’s loved ones to "have a heart attack"...LoL... but if you live in the States or UK and would like to surprise a loved one living in Lagos with a box of Cupcakes and cookies, do send us an email at info@chocolatiers-wonders.com or call us on + 234 708 967 3839 or + 234 702 537 8580.


So whether it's a niece's/newphew's naming ceremony, a friend's bridal shower, a sibling's baby shower or a 'just because' gift, we look forward to your orders.

Scintillating C's

I am sure you already figured out that our scintillating C’s are…..Chocolates, Cupcakes and Cookies. I am putting up fantabulous pictures of all three to compensate for the single post I had last week. I was quite busy and even when I got round to putting something together, my internet connection disappointed me, I apologize.

These are all from orders I had over the past few weeks.

The 2-truffle boxed chocolates were given out as favours at a wedding while a client decided to treat his lovely wife to a pair of all-white edible chocolate shoes.

Some of the cupcakes were just-because orders for a client’s colleagues, some were given as a birthday gift and some were for a baby shower.

The artistically designed cookies were for a baby shower and from the looks of it, it is obvious that she’s expecting a boy.

We are One Month!!!!

Well we were actually one month old on Friday but I have not had time to post any pictures. How time flies!!!!! And we are almost at 1,000 page views. WOW!!!


Thanks to all those that have visited and keep visiting the blog. Thanks to those that have shared the link. And a very big thank you to all those that have placed orders.


Please keep sharing the link and remember that we are still offering our promotional price on our cupcakes till the end of September, so give us a call and place your order.


These cuppies were for a thirtieth birthday. They requested a very very colourful array (as you can see).

Good Things Come In Small Packages

We all know that good things come in small packages and that cannot be more true than for our cupcakes. It is possible to have individually packed cupcakes for wedding favours or to give friends at a baby or bridal shower. Or even at a dinner party or company event.


Unfortunately, minimum orders apply for these cuppies, just give us a call to make enquiries.

Some More Pictures............

Last week was something else. I hardly got a full nights sleep and even had one sleepless night but I loved every moment of it! A big thank you to all those that contributed to my lack of sleep by ordering one thing or the other.


Some of last weeks orders included chocolates for a wedding, cookies for party packs and cupcakes for various occasions. I would post pictures as soon as I can. I am still trying to get through all my old pictures.


The flavours below are Black Forest, Chocolate with Irish Cream Frosting (this is a very very popular flavour) and the other two (Vanilla with Vanilla Frosting and Chocolate with Vanilla Frosting ) were for a naming ceremony – this is the second Baby Boy order.

Baby Boy Cupcakes and Some Others

If you have been following the blog, you might recal that I said when I made the baby girl cupcakes I got 2 orders for baby boy ones. I have attached the pictures below. And I can report that my clients were very pleased.


I also received some ‘Just Because’ orders. It is always nice when you receive orders from people who have nothing special to celebrate they just want to ‘indulge’.


I have also attached pictures of some rainbow cupcakes and chocolate and Irish Cream Frosting Cupcakes I made to a two year old party.

More Pictures to come later this week…………
