Pink Frosting and Chocolate Cake Crochet Cupcake Rug $40.00

Yummy! A cupcake rug to sweeten up any room in your house!

The seller crocheted this cupcake-shaped rug with yarn she hand-cut from salvaged fabric. The chocolate bottom was crocheted from a brown corduroy fabric remnant. The frosting was crocheted from a pink polyester double-knit fabric remnant. The cherry and sprinkles were crocheted from a red velour bathrobe. All these fabrics were collected from thrift stores, washed, and cut into strips that she used as yarn to crochet this rug. Using fabric yarn creates a rug that is durable and thick yet soft.

This rug measures 19.5 inches (49.5 cm) x 17 inches (43.2 cm) at its widest points. It is machine washable and dryable. Perfect for the bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, play room, dorm room, nursery, office, any room at all!

Want a rug in a different color or size? Contact the seller for one custom made to match your decor.

How sweet it is.  Kelly Ripa, talk show host, and veteran of the school bake sale scene, used her new Electrolux range to bake a signature batch of cupcakes to kick off a digital campaign to help fight ovarian cancer.  For every virtual cupcake sent at electroluxappliances.com this February, Electrolux will donate a $1 to The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. 

Along with sending a virtual cupcake this Valentine’s Day, Electrolux is selling “Wear Your Heart on Your Sleeve” T-shirts, designed by Ripa, on its Web site (www.electroluxappliances.com)  For each T-shirt sold, 100 percent of the proceeds will go to the OCRF to support research to find a cure.

And to top it off, Electrolux is auctioning off a one-of-a-kind red kitchen suite on eBay.  The bidding on the “Red Hot Red” kitchen – which includes a built-in range, dishwasher, refrigerator and microwave – starts Wednesday, February 11th at 3 p.m. EST and lasts until 3 p.m.  EST on Wednesday, February 18th.  All proceeds of the charity auction benefit the OCRF as part of Electrolux’s commitment to help this worthy cause.

Can you guess who this is? **CONTEST**

Posted by on Tuesday, February 10th, 2009

Today I thought I would bring about a cupcake trivia game.

With her blog being clicked on millions of times it should not take many true cupcake fans long  to figure it out! When you think you know who she is, in comments do not type her name, just a fact you can find out about her. If her name is typed in, that would pretty much VOID the contest.

On March 15th I will reveal who it is and get Jess the owner of this blog to randomly draw for a baking kit from my webstore. Valued at $50.00 retail.

Sound like fun? Oh yeah! Happy Baking and Good Cupcakin’ Luck ;o)

Pink Sweetheart Cupcakes

Pink Sweetheart Cupcakes

I had meant to make chocolate cupcakes for Valentine’s Day, but the cupcakes became strawberry instead. There’s strawberry and strawberry syrup in the cake. I used a bit of food coloring to get the desired color and topped off the cupcakes with my most favorite cream (Cool Whip) and white chocolate hearts.

Originally posted by mimiLovely on her blog, vanilla. The blog is in Japanese only, but her pictures are cute and lovely. She wrote some recipe notes for these cupcakes in English, so maybe you can pick up some tips from the note.

Cold Stone Creamery Offers New Ice Cream Cupcakes

Posted by on Monday, February 9th, 2009

sweet-treat-cupcakes_1234230284784

Cold Stone Creamery is adding a twist to the latest popular dessert, creating premium ice cream cupcakes, sold for a limited time nationwide for just $9.99 a pack. Known as an ice cream innovator, Cold Stone is breaking into another category for sweet indulgences with three signature cupcake Creations. Offered from Feb. 4 – March 31, 2009, these cupcakes are the sweetest gift for any sweetheart during Valentine’s Day.

In recent years the cupcake trend has been sweeping the country with more and more cupcake specialty shops sprouting in every city. This trend, inspired by popular television, such as Sex and the City, has made its way out of children’s parties and into the adult world as a delectable treat for most any occasion, from birthdays to promotions to celebrating a Friday.

“These ice cream cupcakes are a perfect new addition to Cold Stone’s offerings of indulgent desserts,” said Suzanne Schutz, vice president of Cold Stone marketing. “We’ve enhanced our menu of deliciously affordable luxuries, while creating a new setting for cupcake lovers to experience this sweet trend.”

Made in a rich Belgian chocolate shell, the Cold Stone ice cream cupcakes are layered with moist cake, fudge and premium ice cream. Topped with fluffy frosting and an edible decoration, these cupcakes are true to the Cold Stone brand as an innovative and quality indulgence. The three Cold Stone signature cupcakes are Cake Batter Delux, Sweet Cream and Double Chocolate Devotion™. Descriptions of these three cupcakes are below.

* Cake Batter Delux: Moist red velvet cake layered with fudge [and] Cake Batter ice cream in a rich Belgian chocolate shell and topped with pink frosting and rainbow sprinkles.
* Sweet Cream: Moist yellow cake layered with fudge and Sweet Cream ice cream in a rich Belgian chocolate shell, finished with Bettercreme frosting and Duo Mistrals topping.
* Double Chocolate Devotion: Moist Devil’s Food cake layered with fudge and chocolate ice cream in a rich Belgian chocolate shell and topped with Bettercreme frosting and an OREO® cookie.

For a limited time only, these cupcakes can be purchased at any Cold Stone Creamery location nationwide at $9.99 for a pack of a half dozen cupcakes. The cupcakes can come in a single flavor or a variety pack, and since it is Cold Stone, guests also have the ability to create their own ice cream cupcake at select locations.

Another sweet treat in Cold Stone stores, just in time for Valentine’s Day, is the Sweet Strawberry Romance ice cream cake. Sweet Strawberry Romance puts a new twist on the traditional Cold Stone Signature Cake. Instead of just one ice cream flavor, Cold Stone is swirling Sweet Cream and Strawberry ice cream together in addition to adding strawberry mix-ins. This ice cream creation is then layered between sheets of moist yellow cake and finished with pink frosting, crumbled graham cracker pie crust and chocolate heart toppers. Sweet Strawberry Romance is available from February 4–14, 2009, at Cold Stone Creamery locations throughout the country.
