Richie's Birthday, Boston, 2008

Remember the cupcake cake? Well, it had to come from somewhere, right? I mean, Jon may be a jack-of-all-trades, but I don't think he had the time to whip up a mess of cupcakes for the occasion.

The woman who did, Courtney Forrester (of "Sweet Cupcakes") did. There was a great interview with her on Cupcakes Take The Cake (I do read other blogs other than Jovi ones, you know; the mention was a nice surprise this morning...)

What's been the most exciting event Sweet has catered?
We were contacted by a tour manager for the band Bon Jovi to do a large tiered stand of cupcakes with a cake on top for Richie Sambora’s birthday which would occur while the band was performing in Boston. We had delivered to the TD Banknorth Center with the understanding that the cake would be served backstage. The next morning we learned that it had been wheeled onstage, during the concert, and that someone had filmed it and posted it on YouTube so we were able to view it.

I wonder if they (the guys) actually got any of those cupcakes :) or if the roadies got them all....
