1950's baking


a little rock n' roll makes the kitchen more fun


Happy Sunday to all you lovely Vintage Dames out there - and happy Father's Day to all the Vintage Dudes!

Since we know that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, we know there'll be plenty of food-related gifts given today. Perhaps a packet of his favourite sweets (or candy for our American friends), a voucher for his favourite restaurant... or if we're feeling particularly brave: cooking a tasty meal from scratch!

With this in mind, we started looking for rock n' roll inspired kitchen goodies and came across this fantastic place called Cupcake Provocateur. They make absolutely stunning, ultra-feminine retro-inspired aprons by hand, in New York. They also bake and sell what look like utterly scrumptious cupcakes and even have a kit for you to make your own. 

Better yet, you don't have to live in New York to get a taste - they ship all over the world! Since it's rock n' roll week here on the blog, we thought you might enjoy an example of their suitably rock n' roll wonders!
