Charming Delights: Cupcake Camp IE!

I had my first Camp Cupcake experience this past Sunday at the beautiful Mission Inn! It was benefiting the Inland Empire Susan G. Komen affiliate so I was double wanting to be there! I had been hearing about Cupcake Camps for months on my favorite cupcake blog and was thrilled when I walked up to Ralphs a few weeks ago and saw this little beauty on the door:

Needless to say the date immediately went into the calendar and hubby got the text "guess what's coming to the Mission Inn??!!". I'm sure he was less than thrilled but being the good sport he is tagged along for the ride. Thankfully Sunday was beautiful and the nasty, very un- fall like hot weather went away and it was perfect for our adventure down town. When we got there, there was a line half way through the lobby but it was moving pretty quickly. We arrived a few minutes after 1 and they were stopping people from going in due to the huge crowds already formed inside the room. When we walked in this is what we saw:

Tee Shirt and information tables

View from the entrance stairs

As we walked in it was VERY crowded (as you can tell) and hard to move around but we made it to a couple booths. Caseys Cupcakes was there as well as a bunch of other bakeries I hadn't heard of before. We were given 4 tickets when we walked in and one ticket = one cupcake so we tried to make quick use of them. Unfortunately we lost one set in the chaos but I think that turned out to be for the best.

Strawberry Lemonade!

There were glitter on these too!

Wouldn't these be cute for a personalized celebration??

On our way out the door!

All in all it was fun and quick. We were out of there with in about 25 minutes or so. My partner in crime had been stepped on, hit, and elbowed and was not a happy camper at this point so we were ready to head out. It was fun and I think I'd do it again but probably by myself or make a plan to meet at the door at a certain time if I go with another person.
