IronCupcake & AJBombers make great Partners!

Twice, the week before ICPro, I was able to cozy up to the folks at AJBombers and help contribute to two good causes.



On Friday, December 11th, I was the guest bartender. I was there to raise money for Gilda's Club, you know...because cancer sucks! Each Friday, AJBombers hosts a guest bartender who has a special cocktail to raise funds. I HAD to have a cupcake involved.



It was the same week as the Top Chef Vegas finale so I created a cupcake/cocktail based on Kevin's Dark Chocolate Bacon and Banana dessert. It even had a little Kevin/Yukon Cornelious flag on top. Mine, my signature cupcake with a rum roasted banana and chocolate ganache frosting. It was then topped with an edible chocolate shot glass filled with chocolate liquor. I apologize for the photo quality, all I had was the dark bar and a cell phone and the cell phones of others.



On Sunday, December 13th; AJBombers, Streetza Pizza, Blatz Liquor, the Tweet Up Girls and Today's TMJ4 hosted a Holiday TweetUp to thank all their tweeps for their support this past year. Given that IronCupcake has benefited greatly from social media, I tossed in about 10 dozen mini red velvet cupcakes to the party. Everyone brought non-perishable foods to contribute to the Hunger Task Force.



Woo Hoo, my morning pals, Vince Vitrano and Susan Kim for TMJ4! (Oh, and of course, Jim and Joe in the background.)



There were also a ton of raffle prizes, including IronCupcake t-shirts (see @jeffmke with his winnings?!)
