Our dear reader Lyndsay wrote in with a photo:
I wanted to share the cupcake costume that I made for my daughter. She was a cupcake for Halloween in 2007. It was so much fun to see people’s reactions when they opened the door. Everyone thought that she was adorable and that it was a nice change from the typical costumes. :-) Hope you enjoy!
Kacie is a talented artist who sent us some photos of her cupcake-inspired works. She owns a shop in south Texas named Rowdy Maui. Although her website is still under construction, it sure is bold and beautiful. On her website is a quote, “Well behaved women rarely make history.” ATC whole-heartedly agrees.
Our friend Cathy shared this cupcake inspired sundress from pinupgirlclothing.com with us. Cupcakes are bringing sexy back.

I just found your website and I am in love! My friend and I made these “cuppy-cake and stud-muffin” costumes for our schools after-prom party. At my school everyone goes all out for costumes and ours was the most original! I thought yall might enjoy the costumes and please pass the idea along to anyone! We made them out of laundry baskets covered in folded poster board, and used polyfil fibers (like pillow stuffing) for the icing! the decorative ribbon straps were stapled around the basket and we crafted the sprinkles out of colored packing peanuts and puff balls. to get the polyfill to stay in place we used clear polyurethane spray, and brown spray paint for the muffins. We had a hard time figuring out how to make the costume, but baked real cupcakes at the same time to make it more enjoyable. Although they were really cute, they are kind of a hassle to wear for a long period of time. Let me know if there are any more questions. The website is WONDERFUL and in a few weeks I will hopefully be sending a picture of my cupcake tattoo (once i get it….). Oh, and same day that we made the costumes I got a new kitten named Cupcake! <3

Her yummy treats come in two flavors: Vanilla Twinkle and Meow Mocha.You may not be able to wear these cupcake creations, but they will certainly taste quite delightful. What is better than a fun, flirty party dress or a sweet treat? Indulging in a cupcake that looks like your favorite frock. Delectable genius. The cupcakes are available May 1st for $2.75/piece at Billy’s Bakery in NYC, just in time for Mother’s Day.

My friend Stephanie and I are a survivors of Domestic Violence, and the cause is near and dear to our hearts. (A few weeks ago I finally got out of an abusive relationship.)
Each month Stephanie will take 10% of her mark profits, as well as donations from her church and other supporters, and place them in a fund. This fund goes to purchase supplies to make care kits for women in her favorite shelter, La Casa de las Madres.
These kits contain makeup and personal care products, a bible, a journal, and a pack of pens. She is trying to expand in the future to add things like a prepaid phone card and a gift certificate for a clothing purchase.
These women have had their self esteem SHATTERED. A small luxury like a tub of mascara or a can of hairspray can be a major step in rediscovering themselves and their incredibly self worth.
If you are interested in purchasing some great cosmetics for low prices while also helping an important cause, check out her store mark.
