ICPro - Cupcakes as Art!

In addition to the thousands of delicious cupcakes to eat; we were lucky enough to have three local artists create "iron" cupcakes, inspired by the IronCupcake logo.



Kendall Polster is known all around Milwaukee for his interesting metal pieces as well as interiors, like Indulge on Milwaukee Street. His ginormous IronCupcake piece was an eye catcher, complete with a sign that read "Please Touch the Art". A bit of a bad-ass, his invitation to break the traditional rules suited both his piece and the overall feeling of IronCupcake! HE has been featured locally and on HGTV for his "Man Cave.

Chris Leslie has been a working blacksmith since 2005. He chooses to merge traditional techniques with contemporary subjects to create unique pieces that are functional, artistic, and tell a story. A late entry for our event, it was a blessing to introduce him to the mix.
