Lisa, Sara & Laura
About Us
We're Laura Reynolds, Lisa Herman & Sara Bencomo. Laura & Sara were running partners, up at the crack of dawn, swapping ideas for a dream business and the cupcake bakery was the clear winner - fun, delicious, and creative. Keeping it on the down low, they were off on their new path! Meanwhile, across town, Lisa was hard at work on her MBA, crafting a business plan for, you guessed it, a cupcake bakery. Kismet brought Lisa and Sara together through their hair stylist...because you know everyone shares their secrets with their hair stylist! The perfect blend of creativity, business know-how, and passion has made this partnership a HAPPY union. Early morning runs will continue, as taste testing is a blessing, and a curse!
Why "Happy Cakes?" Sara's 2-year old son Alden is a huge fan of cake (and more importantly, frosting). Instead of "Happy Birthday!"...Alden wishes birthday revelers "Happy Cakes!" It was perfect. Who doesn't want to be happy? And who isn't happy when they're eating cake? Exactly.

Dear all,
Thank you so much for making Melissa's dream come true! A "cupcake wedding cake" that was beautiful and tasty. We only brought a couple home with us - a testament to how much everyone loved them! Thank you so much!

Dear Lisa, Laura and Sara,
I want to thank you so much for the cupcakes today for our office. They were so well received and loved by all. I know everyone will be very excited to hear when you open your bakeshop. I wanted to share a story with you to put a smile on your face and let you know that your company brings a smile to all.
Our company is a landscape architect and planning firm and many of us were here until 4 am last night working to get a design competition out. Admittedly, none of us wanted to come into work today. But as my alarm sounded at 7:20 (only 3 hours after I went to sleep) I dreaded the thought of getting up, until I remembered it was cupcake day. I jumped out of bed and was so excited to get into the office. As I came in, many people came up to me with a big smile and said, YEAH it's cupcake day! At 3PM when we made the announcement that the cupcakes were served, people actually danced down the hallways to the conference room with the sheer excitement of cupcakes (this reaction is hard to get unless we provide alcohol, which was helped by the cosmo cupcakes!).
So, thank you again for making our Thursday more enjoyable. We look forward to doing business with you in the future.
Thanks so much,
Meghann Pullen

Lisa and crew,
I just wanted to thank you all for the delicious Carmel Apple mini cakes! They are a complete hit! I'm standing guard so those that have had theirs don't dip in and eat everyone else's. The cake is so moist and yummy - the frosting is creamy and excellent - the carmel on top makes them perfect.
I can't wait until we try another flavor next month!
Thanks for coming up with the idea of Happy Cakes - it's a winner! I can't say enough about how great the cupcakes are and how great your customer service is!
Thanks and make it a good one!
Linda
