Today my cupcakes really did take a step towards being cyber-cupcakes as they were the focus for the afternoon coffee break at the
TEDxYork Conference at York University today.
I'd been listening to the event online via the web streaming which took place throughout the day, so when I arrived with the cupcakes in the afternoon I'd felt as though I'd been a part of it all.
I tried to make cupcakes fit with the technical tone of the event, so avoided swirly piped frosting, opting instead for a clean circle of buttercream and a printed logo topper.
We narrowly managed to snap a few official photos of the display before the afternoon break commenced. I suddenly realised that while posing for a photo next to the cakes, I was suddenly holding up the queue!

Suddenly over 200 delegates descended on the display and filed passed in an orderly fashion, collecting their cake as they went. I loved how many delegates took photos before picking up their cake! Within minute they were viral, being posted on Twitter and shared. The photos featured here are those taken by delegates and shared as part of the #TEDxYork Twitter feed.

I was so glad I stayed to see how quickly the cakes disappeared from the stand. I thoroughly enjoyed my virtual conference attendence today, and I hope the conference delegates enjoyed the reality of my cyber cupcakes.
