Cupcakes- Gigi's Bakery Edition

Today I had the privilege of visiting Gigi's Cupcakes located in The Woodlands!

  • Gigi's Cupcakes was first opened on February 21, 2008 in Nashville, Tennessee by creator Gigi Butler.

    • Gigi's Cupcakes has since become a franchise. There are currently over 100 stores located in 23 different states. 

The Daily Routine

-Each Gigi's location bakes fresh cupcakes each morning.
-There are over 10 cupcake flavors offered in store each day.
-Gigi's Cupcakes in The Woodlands sells anywhere from 250 to 500 cupcakes per day; sales vary based on factors such as the day of the week, season of the year, and the weather.



  Meeting the Owner

-Today I had the pleasure of speaking with Gigi's owner, Anna Keller.
-Gigi's Cupcakes of the Woodlands is one of 5 that her family owns.
-The biggest order she has received at once was 2,000 mini cupcakes.
-Valentine's Day is the busiest day at her stores, over 3,000 cupcakes are sold per location.


 My Gigi's Experience

After a long debate, I decided upon four flavors: 
-Cherry Limeade
-Chocolate Salted Caramel
-Scarlett's Red Velvet
-Hunka Chunka Banana Love
   

I was delighted that each cupcake was very moist and rich in flavor. All were delicious, but Cherry Limeade took the number one spot in my book, closely followed by the Chocolate Salted Caramel.
