Cupcake Á La Mode

Cupcake A La Mode is the creation of Lisa Clark, Executive Pastry Chef, and her husband Daniel. Over the past few years, cupcakes have rocketed into the stratosphere as the dessert of choice and Lisa and Daniel have decided to build a cafe around that concept. Lisa left her full time job as a Customer Service Manager for a major bank corporation in 2005 to be a stay home mother to her 3 children. Since baking is truly her passion, Lisa decided to put that passion to work for her! From 2005-2008 she began managing her home-based custom occasion cakes business in Kansas City. It was obvious in every cake she made for her clients that she loves what she does. Unlike many cupcakeries, Cupcake A La Mode will serve primarily chocolate, vanilla and red velvet cupcakes (and the occasional signature flavor of the month). With REAL ingredients like buttermilk, sweet cream butter, madagascar bourbon vanilla and belgian dark chocolate, these very basic cake flavors will taste anything BUT basic! Inspired by Lisa's love for pound cake, you will find Cupcake A La Mode's cake to be very different than their competitors'- rich, velvety, buttery and very dense! Paired with one of their signature, made-from-scratch buttercreams and delectable toppings such as gourmet cookies or candies made by award winning chocolatiers, these "basic" little cakes immediately transform into something much more irresistible. Cupcake A La Mode will also serve small custom occasion cakes, gluten free cupcakes, coffees and teas and have a boutique style retail area as well. Since baking fresh daily and donating leftovers plays such a big part in their business model, Cupcake A La Mode will occasionally sell-out early. Pre-ordering or stopping by early in the day will ensure that your cravings are satisfied!
