Southern Protocol

Southern Protocol has recently ventured into the world of Twitter. I’ll be honest, at first I was in the “this is so pointless” camp. New confession: it’s semi-addicting! And what a great way to get messages out there; there are countless businesses using the newest social media for promotions and branding.

Cupcake, the super sweet bakery on King Street, is one of the many businesses doing exactly that – and they’re doing a brilliant job. They have implemented random “happy hours” advertised last minute to all of Twitter nation. At any given time, their Twitter is updated saying that for the next hour a certain type of cupcake is free. FREE! CUPCAKES!

Apparently the happy hours are so popular that there is literally a line out the door every time they do one. I just think that’s so incredible! So for all you tweeters out there, be sure to add freshcupcakes to your following list.

Way to go Cupcake… and now that I am following you, too, I hope to see you soon

It’s been five months since baker-extraordinaire Lauren Mitterer opened Wild Flour Pastry on Spring Street, and things are looking – and smelling! – better than ever.

The bright and quaint shop is quickly becoming a welcoming neighborhood jaunt, with its mouthwateringly flaky scones, rich muffins, calming teas, warming coffees and a million other delicious treats. The bakery is also one of the companies that supplies goodies to popular new coffeehouse Hope and Union.

Lauren’s prices are incredibly cheap for how sensational her food tastes…pay a visit to her shop today and see what all the fuss is about, or call on her the next time you need snacks for a meeting or gathering!
