Hey y’all. It’s Momma Dana again here!
Rush week is in full swing here but GAMEDAYS are just around the corner!

Did you know that Shea partners with amazing local Businesses in Tuscaloosa to offer convenient spot for all of your gameday needs? GAMEDAYS just happen to be one of Sheas favorite days at UA.

SOOOOOO, with that being said, your 1st GAMEDAY forms will be up after this week as well as September forms for birthday and just because cupcakes!

Stay tuned for all of the announcements. (Shea is way better at this than I am!)

If you’re looking for an August order, head on over to shealaviecupcakery.com
And follow the order prompts for all info!

If I can answer any questions please let me know. Hope everyone has a great day!

If you ordered for yourself or your student last year for gameday or any day what was their favorite flavor? This momma wants to know. 🧁

Hi Everyone! This is Dana- Sheas mom!

I’m fairly certain that Shea looks like this now (or will soon) as she is knee deep in sorority recruitment this week!

I was left in charge for the next few days, so I just wanted to give you an update!

First off- to the moms that dropped their girls off at Alabama this past week, take a deep breath! It’s such an amazing place and she will be fine! To the ones that move in next week, when all your cars are full and you can’t fit another item inside…. Somehow it all fits!!!

Ok now on to her “business” stuff!
If you would like to send your daughter a SWEET TREAT to her sorority house after bid day, let Shea take care of that for you. They will be delivered straight to their new house with a card and she will text them to let them know and congratulate them on their new sisterhood! I will say, Shea hung out at her house last year and she met some of her best friends. And—- who doesn’t want to share cupcakes lol?

Back to school- she’s got that too! She will set up and meet them at their house, dorm or apartment with their sweet treats and a card. (She even snaps a pic if they will let her and send it to you!!)

For all order info just head over to her website- all
Flavors and info is there
Shealaviecupcakery.com

Click on contact/order and let her take care of the rest.

If you have any questions please let me know! I would be happy to help!

Good luck mamas and just know that Alabama will be good to your babies!

🌟I’m all moved in and ready for Sophmore year!

I just wanted to put out a few little reminders. Response time may be longer the next 2 weeks as I will be doing Primary Recruitment. My mom will be answering messages on my behalf ( you better be nice to her!!!). She will have access to all messages and info so rest assured you will be taken care of!

🧁BID DAY BOXES- I only have availability for a few more orders. (About 90% sold out!). If you are interested in ordering a bid day box for your active/new member , they will be delivered to their sorority house after bid day during the week. They can share their SWEET treats with their new sisters! 🧁

🍎BACK TO SCHOOL🍎
I’m about 80% sold out for back to school boxes. These boxes will be delivered straight to their dorm/house/apartment or Greek house!

Allllllsoooooo🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

I hope everyone has a great move in and is ready for the best year! I’m grateful that Shea La Vie gets to be a part of so many students college experience here at Bama!

Are you a teacher here in the Tuscaloosa area? Do you know a teacher in the area? I need your help!

I know the kids go back to school next week, and I want to help SWEETEN your classroom. I know that I have been lucky enough to have some incredible teachers in my life. I also know I’ve met some pretty special kids here in Alabama. A huge part of my business has always been about giving back, and I would love to continue doing so here in TTown.

I would like to put together some supplies for your classroom and some SWEETNESS to go along with those supplies. Can you please tag any teachers you know in the area and give me ideas of what you need for your classrooms? (Please remember I am a college kid with a budget). I would love to help in any way I can. Seeing on social media that some children will not have what they need in the classrooms breaks my heart.

I’m not sure how I can help, but I am going to figure it out!

Please spread the word and tag all of your teacher friends here so I can deliver them some SWEETNESS! Let’s help these babies go back to school prepared. If I can figure out a way to help more than one classroom, I’m alllll over it! It’s going to be SWEET 💗🧁💗

😱You guys are blowing my mind!😱

Just wanted to give you all an update!! As stated below I WILL sell out!

I posted the link about 48 hours ag and BID DAY is about 1/2 way sold out and BACK TO SCHOOL is about 1/3 sold out!

Please do not wait to order. I will work with you something comes up, but I hate disappointing people when I am at capacity.

I’m so grateful that you all chose me to SWEETEN the day of your students as I know you have so many amazing options here in TTOWN.

I also had some questions if I can deliver to STAFF on campus and the answer is YES! I can deliver to any department on campus!

This weekend I’m off to spend some time with my parents. I move back to campus next weekend so I’m soaking it all in. If you have any questions feel free to send me a message.

Oohhhhh and check out my beautiful new website. Which flavor on the menu do you think is my best seller here in Alabama?

I hope everyone has a SWEET weekend 💗🧁💗

📣Shea La Vie Cupcakery – FAQ TIME! 💗🧁💗

We have a lot of new faces around here, so I figured I would whip up a little info on me! Need some help SWEETENING someone’s day? I’ve got you?

My name is Shea Curtin and I am a Sophomore at the University of Alabama. I started my business at age 14 in NY during lockdown when my mom threatened to throw my phone out the window if I didn’t find something productive to do. I am a Special Education Major with BIG dreams of opening my own cupcake shop which employs differently abled individuals. I have been in business for over 5 years and almost a full year here in Alabama. I am in a sorority and also volunteer/work with the special needs population! (They have my WHOLE 💗)

📍 Where are you located?
I am a cottage law licensed bakery based in Northport , AL
I am licensed by the state of Alabama (and still in NY LOL)
I originally began my business at age 14 in NY And when I came to college it only took me a few months to realize that I needed to re-open my sweetness down here because I missed it soooo much.

📦 Do you deliver?
YES!! That’s actually one my favorite parts of my business down here. I deliver your sweets straight to your door. (Tuscaloosa and Northport) I also host pop ups for Game Day weekends where I collaborate with some AMAZING local businesses!

🗓️ What’s your order schedule?
📦✨I try to accommodate as many orders as I can. (I’m really bad at saying no but I’m working on it). We AIM for 7-10 days in advance but I try my best to make it work. We will coordinate your delivery with your student and meet them to deliver. (My mom and dad often assist with deliveries). I even send you a photo of your student with their yummies. So many parents LOVE this (so many students do not lol!)

I’ve always shared more than just cupcakes on my page, because some of my customers have been here for 5 years and watched me grow up. I wanted to share some thoughts with you all.

Today was my last day of my summer job. When I got into the car, I cried. I was so sad. This job for sure changed me. It was the 1st job that I technically didn’t work for myself. It was a job I was scared to start because what happened if I hated it? My dreams of my bakery hung in the balance.

Guess what…. It was the most impactful 6 weeks I could have asked for. It once again solidified that SHEA LA VIE WILL STAND WITHIN 4 WALLS where ALL are welcome and have purpose.

I’ve spent the last 6 weeks in the kitchen of our local hospital with 6 interns with varying abilities. These 6 “kids” and I grew together. I learned more from them than they will ever comprehend. We completed our tasks sometimes with smiles and sometimes without but we did it all together. They learned the importance of showing up for themselves and each other.

When I texted one of my moms to let her know some details for the last day, THIS is what she sent me. To know that I made an impact in 6 short weeks makes me so proud. I hope to continue making the difference in the lives of others one day at my bakery. This blue shirt which now has their signatures on my back will forever be a reminder what happens when you believe in people. It will stay with me throughout my years.

This summer was sooooo very SWEET 💗🧁💗

I know I’ve been quiet lately, but I’m finishing up my last week of work with my interns. I’ve had the best time teaching young adults with developmental disabilities job and life skills. It truly gave me a hands on experience to what my bakery will look like in the future.

I’ve been doing a ton of behind the scene streamlining of Shea La Vie. You will soon be able to enjoy a MUCH easier ordering process, a beautifully updated website, new in town pop up locations, and more of my smiling face!

I’ve really tried to fine tune the overall experience that Shea La Vie has to offer. I’m excited to roll out the new updates in just a little bit.

I’m working on setting up your

BID DAY sorority boxes 8/18-8/22
BACK TO SCHOOL SWEETNESS 8/29
AND I CANNOT WAIT TO BRING YOU THE 1st GAMEDAY BOX of the year!!!! Ahhhhhh. I can’t wait to be back at Bryant Denny!

I’m going to be posting the information for BID DAY AND BACK TO SCHOOL Soon so please keep your eyes peeled. I have LIMITED AVAILABILITY as I will be busy with rush and school myself so I will sell out!

Stay tuned for info coming soon! Only 50 more days until
I get to stand in the HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH (no not Disney…. BDS!)

Any new flavor requests? I’ve got a few up my sleeve!

Welcome to my Cupcakery!

At 14 years old, I didn't know what to do with my time during our Safe At Home Order. My dad is an FDNY firefighter and was working so many hours that I decided to start baking treats and sending them in for the firefighters. I began dropping them on the porches of neighbors, friends and family, and they all told me that I was on to something! Here I am launching Shea La Vie Cupcakery!!! Welcome to my “sweet” little spot!

I am LOVING creating yummy creations for everyone, and hope to launch cupcake boxes weekly. If you have any special requests, please feel free to reach out!! I would love to help sweeten your special days (or even your random Thursday) one CUPCAKE at a time!
