Hello. My name is Adrienna. I'm living here in Sport City Amman Jordan. I want to open a cupcake business. Does anyone know what licenses I might need and where I can buy the equipment from? Also would I have to bake them in the shop or could I bake at home then transfer to the shop. It's a really small place but it's a start. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I have just started making cupcakes and cookies for anyone who's interested in buying. I don't like the shops here too much. I'm stuck on American cakes and cookies. Lol. I can make pies if needed. I love pies. Just email me or whatsapp me. My info should be here. I'm on Facebook as well. Adrienna's cupcakes. I don't have a lot of pics posted. Only what I've made for a few people.

You send pie and cake via email and whatsapp?

Nice colorful creative cakes. If they have a special delicious taste different from the ones being offered in markets or cake shops, you should be successful selling them. Good luck

It maybe a good idea for advertising, not for well ment ideas which are the ne plus ultra for selling any kind of product. Further I advise to register Ur business whether at home or in a shop.

Just kidding  ;)  By the way, should u need serious taster for your cakes, my cat and I volunteer  :D

I generally find there is a lack of juiciness. You could try to fill this gap. The outside lures ones attention already, complete your works with a  pleasant taste. Decide where u want to build your business, distribute through a opening event, the best way to let the world know your product exists. Good luck

Ok guys you all need to check out my page. Doesn't anyone want homemade pies or cookies or cupcakes? It's under Adrienna's cupcakes. I usually make cakes so there aren't a lot of cupcake pics. I don't know how many of you are Americans but happy thanksgiving if you are.

Primadonna

I usually bake my own.

Magdalena3322

Lol. Ok. I know many people do make their own but there are lots who do not so if you know anyone just pass it along. Thanks.

Why don't you ask us to try your Cupcakes and Pie first,and then we can market it thru our Dear Friends.

Ahh...How much for the Pumpkin Pie ?

Magdalena3322

Of course good idea. But where would I go? I mean if I want people to try for example the pie I would need to meet a group of people somewhere so everyone can taste. Not just one person I mean. So do you know how I could do that?

Kate29

Why don't you join us for Our Expats Dinner with Primadona ?

no, this not good idea Kate29, your meeting is just for Expats, and i am not..... or do you want to taste without me ;)

Magdalena3322

Lol. Ok how about I make a new post. Everyone can type in a date and time that they're available. Then maybe meet at city mall or Makkah mall. I can bring little Mini cupcakes and mini pies. How's that sound?

JO/EU

First time buy one, second for free. Afterwards, buy 5, one free  :D  For me, buy non, 10 for free  :P

Magdalena3322

Like I said I could have mini pies and cakes for FREE so everyone could try them. If yall like then yall can order. Not for free. Lol.

Xeeschan

I think the best thing to do would be to perhaps start with your neighborhood. If there are families with little kids around, there will always be demand for confectionery and baked items for kids. Besides, if you promote home cooked food, everyone will be happy to purchase it.

Hope this will be a good start.

No excuses left, you'll have to let mohdq taste your cupcakes (the chocolate ones naturally )
