As I was flipping through the latest ad from Bed, Bath & Beyond, I came across the Surprise Cupcake Pan. This would be the perfect way to use some of that stash of Halloween candy. Each cavity of the cupcake pan has a post where you can stick your favorite filling, whether it be a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup, Mini Milky Way bar, or a maraschino cherry. Go try this one out before all that candy disappears!
When the autumn chill sets in, we don’t hesitate to change everybody in the house over to flannel sheets. And check out what I just found at Kohls to make the transition a little sweeter. These cupcake sheets come in all sizes: twin, full, queen, and king. We snagged the twin set for only $29.99. Sweet dreams!
I can’t believe how quickly the holiday season is approaching! All the stores are stocked with their holiday merchandise which means its time to start hunting for fun cupcake finds. This year is one of my friends first years having her own tree and she has already expressed a desire to have a themed Christmas tree. Have you heard of anyone doing these? Basically my friend wants to have a “sweet tree,” where all the ornaments, garland, and even the star on top is a dessert or candy. I think these Martha Stewart Collection Christmas mini cupcake ornaments which come in a box of three would be perfect for her tree. They are available from Macy’s for $17.00.
Halloween might be over, but it’s not too late to make some pumpkin cupcakes. These would be good for celebrating Thanksgiving, or just for making a special fall treat. These Pumpkin Patch Cupcakes from Duncan Hines look very impressive, but seem extremely simple to make. Just roll an orange-frosted cupcake in orange sugar, press bamboo skewers into the frosting for the ribs, and add licorice for the stems and tendrils. Super cute and super easy!

I love souvenirs and they are even better when they are cupcake related! In October my parents spent two weeks in London and were nice enough to bring me back a few surprises. One of them is The Notting Hill Shopping Bag which is designed by local school children to support local causes. My parents made the obvious choice of chosing the cupcake design for me which was designed by X factor judge and Notting Hill resident Natalie Imbruglia. The bags are available online through paypal for 8 euro, just be sure to mention you want the cupcake design when checking out.
