    Hmm.. must be a female thing.
    I suppose to some, a cake is a cake. :)

    Great work GG and Ozone. Although those images are actual cakes, not single-serve cupcakes.

    Look at these lot:
    CUPCAKE IMAGES

    See there in lies the problem, Women always ask "Did you eat all that cake?" so they came up with these mini things that they hide for themselves.
    You know we ate the cake, we have sweet tooths, so why ask and why make those mini things which only tease our taste buds.
    Cake or CupCakes it's all cake to us.

    Now that I got that cleared up in everyone's head, it brings me to back to the initial confusion.
    From Your Website.
    "We offer everything from tiered wedding cakes, custom bithday cakes, to beautiful baby shower cake, & everything in between."

    Yet all the samples are Cupcakes.
    Are you pushing mini cakes or cake cakes???

    @ GG Looks good, but I'm not crazy about the purple. Read you PM & If your turns out the best out of all, I will consider what you have discussed in the message. And I will try and help out with the forum.

    @ ozone73 Good Job, but I'm looking for something that would look good on a sign outside... something that will catch their eye.

    @ CovertPea You probably know exactly what I want, can't wait to see your design.

    @ ishkey Yes I do offer custom cakes, but the reason why I want the logo to have a cupcake because I'm going to have a cupcake bar inside. So people can sit down eat cupcakes and have coffee. And a cupcake just goes better with the name. Sweet & Frosted.

    Hope this answers all of your questions & thank all of you for taking on my design.

    That is the kind of information which you should have disclosed from the beginning.
    You posted samples of signs and yet your site is mainly about Cakes, so the people working on this took the Cake approach.
    When in business and discussing ideas with a contractor or vendor you need to disclose the big picture with all the facts - it helps with the communication part.

    My site is not mainly about cakes. It is about Custom Cake & Cupcakes. I have done a number of orders.... 75% of which are CUPCAKES. If I wanted it to be about cakes and not cupcakes, I would have posted samples of cake logos... not cupcake logos.

    Don't be upset.
    You just stated another fact that the designers didn't know.
    I am trying to get you to understand that communicating information to the graphics people will save them needless work and supply you with the logo you want.
    Try to remember none of us have been privy to your operation until now.
    The more you can describe what you want then the outcome is what you are looking for.

    I really like this one!! But I think a different font would look better.

    Here are a few fonts I like... (if you can find something similar or better, go ahead)

    cuttycupcakes
    fineliner script
    post it pen script
    mawn's handwriting

    Anything that is soft script or handwriting
