Another sweet review from the Michigan Women’s Forum:

“Cupcakes. The word alone makes your mouth water in anticipation, doesn’t it? Fresh, just-right bites of sweetness, they offer a limited portion of dessert that satisfies without leaving you in the throes of an “I can’t believe I ate the whole thing” moment.

Pam Turkin believes in the power of cupcakes, and with good reason. The Michigan entrepreneur has gone from baking them in her kitchen to turning out truckloads from a commercial bakery in Livonia. Just Baked now boasts four retail stores and has plans to open another near the Livonia bakery.”

Another great review from Jackie @freeismylife:

“Pam Turkin makes a great cupcake – and has a great story. Now that I knew I was in one great bakery, it was time to meet the woman behind all these great sweets – Pam Turkin.  I can describe Pam in just one word – phenomenal.  She is warm and personable and just downright “good people”.”

Check out the great review from @momslikeme:

“And after tasting the cupcakes, I completely understood why she has had such great success.  I should mention that I’m not much a fan of cake. I tend to be quite picky with it. I like it, but only if it’s really, really, really good. These cupcakes were amazing. Every one that I tried was decadent & moist with creamy frosting on top.”

From HometownLife.com:

Dozens and dozens of freshly baked, frosted, delicious cupcakes were given out by Pam Turkin, of Farmington Hills, left, owner of Just Baked (Livonia, Novi, Royal Oak, Ann Arbor) and her staff, Amy Gallagher, of Ann Arbor, Elizabeth Licht, of Northville, and Jordon Strom, of Farmington Hills, at The Parade Company / Target pre-fireworks party atop Millers Garage on the Detroit River Monday night. Happy faces with frosting on them lasted until the last fireworks burst — 1,776 cupcakes were consumed and even Mayor Bing’s wife took home a box.
