Food Network Names Blue Eyed Daisy This Season’s Cupcake Wars Winner!

Written by , Posted in Blue Eyed Daisy, cupcakes, Food Network

Who doesn’t love a good cupcake?  We know the Food Network’s Cupcake Wars judges do, and they especially loved the Blue Eyed Daisy’s.  On Sunday, June 17, the Food Network aired an episode showing the bakers of the Daisy being crowned winners of this season’s Cupcake Wars and taking home the $10,000 prize. 

What a thrill to see the Blue Eyed Daisy on national television!  

To make the night even sweeter for Candi Pittman, our resident baker, Serenbe hosted a viewing party for residents, Daisy staff, and Candi’s family.  The cheers were loud, the smiles wide, and the applause enthusiastic when the judges announced their decision. 

Since the show aired, the Daisy staff has been kept busy baking, decorating, and filling orders for the now famous flavors, which you can purchase to enjoy. 

Peanut Butter and Banana – a banana oat cupcake with peanut butter frosting and topped with the Daisy’s homemade peanut butter granola (also available for purchase).

Orange and Apricot – an orange-scented vanilla cupcake filled with apricot curd and topped with orange-scented cream cheese frosting.

Espresso and Cinnamon – A spiced espresso cupcake topped with cinnamon espresso frosting and sprinkled with chocolate covered espresso beans.

Chocolate and Beer – a chocolate beer cupcake topped with a beer-flavored chocolate ganache and chocolate beer frosting.

Stop by and try a four-pack today!
