Cupcakes have been a rage in the Vancouver area for quite sometime, having been invited to attend the 1st Vancouver Cupcake Challenge on Sunday June 20th, I couldn’t resist the temptation. I thought that I knew most of the Cupcake players from around the city and boy was I ever taken by surprise. This funtastic event was co-organized by Mijune of Follow Me Foodie and Nicole of Nicole Marie Events, no doubt those two wonderful ladies are esteemed cupcake lovers.

Teresa Lanziner is the founder of North Vancouver’s Cake Tease Cupcake company, she told me that she used to be a Snowboard instructor that turned baker about a year and a half ago and bakes everything custom to order with 15 varieties of cupcakes and spectacular custom cakes.
