As an American patisserie chef and bakery owner living in London, It is pretty exciting that the Olympics come to town while I reside in this beautiful country. Tons of tourists placing Olympic orders and making us busier than ever. I could care less about sports to be honest.. but after the infamous torch passed by our home... the men and woman's cycling relay's both passed by our front door annnnd (drum roll please...) I met the entire USA dream team in an intimate setting. Soo you can now say I am completely a sports fan for life. Kobe, Lebron, Carmelo and myself totally bonded. BFF for life. (Yes, that needed to be in bold)...So that helped built up the Olympic hype for me insanely.

Now, let me rephrase what I said above. As an American patisserie chef living in London it should be pretty exciting that the olympics come to town while I reside in this beautiful country. You know.. all of the creative Olympic cakes we can make.. we have the world and unlimited designs at our fingertips. Oh wait, no. We don't...the Olympic committee announced that only sponsors are allowed to use the Olympic symbols and banned all cake makers from doing so. How silly of them.
Well. We gave ourselves about 4 and a half minutes to sulk over this, and then decided to make the best of the situation. We created some amazing British/American themed designs instead and sent an American flag made of 300 mini cupcakes off to our new BFF's Kobe, Lebron, Carmelo and the USA Dream Team (and a smaller version of a british flag to the UK Olympic Basketball team). After that, it is pretty obvious that we are the bestest
friends they've ever had.

So all in all, the Olympics so far have turned out to be everything and more than we have hoped for. Here is an image of the british mini cupcake flag that we made at Mychelle's Baketique. Adorable and just £105 for 150 mini cupcakes. A perfect treat for the closing ceremonies party your hosting. (All invites welcome :)
