Q: Do you do weddings?
A: Yes! Contact us if you’re interested in having Pink Elephant Cupcakes at your wedding.
Q: Can I freeze my cupcakes?
A: Our cupcakes are always best when eaten fresh, however if you’d like to save them for a later date, we recommend storing them in an air tight container and freezing them.
Q: Where are you located?
A: Our St. Clair Shores shop is located at 23301 Jefferson Avenue on the corner or Doremus & Jefferson. We share a building with a law office and our entrance is in the rear of the building. Come in the bright pink door under the hot pink awning! (Landmarks - we’re between St. Lucy’s Catholic Church and 7-11)
Q: How should I store my cupcakes?
A: We believe our cupcakes are best enjoyed fresh but understand that isn’t always an option. We think refrigerating your cupcakes is best to keep them fresh, just let them come to room temperature before you eat them. Unless you’re like a couple of us who enjoy some flavors cold!
Q: Does my cake need to be refrigerated?
A: Yes! If you aren’t enjoying your cake right away, we recommend keeping it refrigerated and setting it out about 30-60 minutes before you serve.
Q: Do you have Gluten Free cupcakes yet?!
A: YES! You asked and we (finally!) delivered! While our kitchen is NOT a GF kitchen nor do we have separate ovens, we do offer made-without-gluten cupcakes (cakes can be special ordered!) We have limited flavors but we always ask that you pre-order those items. Our made without gluten cupcakes have a delicious cake with our classic (naturally GF) butter-cream that you have come to love!
