On Friday June 3 and Saturday June 4 we had the privilege of being invited to share our petite sweets with the guests of Platinum Publicity's 2011 Hollywood Platinum Lounge. Platinum Publicity puts on great events to gift celebs and this lounge was in honor of The Red Cross and the MTV Movie Awards which were held on Sunday June 5. Also at the event, The Red Cross filmed a new PSA, "Prepare LA".

What an amazing time we had! We had the pleasure of gifting the stars and Hollywood VIPS with our Cupcakes, Parisian Macarons, Cake Pops, and Top-Shelf Cookies.
We gave out plenty of Red Velvet and Vanilla Salted Caramel Cupcakes, but the biggest buzz was over our new Tequila Sunrise Cupcake--orange cake soaked in tequila liqueur topped with a grenadine buttercream--wow! There were many oohs and aahs over our Parisian Macarons, which are notoriously difficult to make. (Unless you're Kirby--we call her the Mac Master!) Cake Pops were an instant favorite--who can resist our Kirby's cake on a stick?

You've heard of the bacon buzz currently going around..well, we kept that buzz going at the Trend Lounge with our Maple Bacon Pecan Cookies! Seems like EVERYONE had to try one- and everyone loved the blend of savory bacon and maple--just like eating breakfast in a rich cookie.

All in all, the 2011 MTV Movie Awards Platinum Lounge was a huge hit and we had a great time being there! More pics to follow...
