Looking for a cute way to package your cupcakes?  Prima Stationary has several varieties of Cupcake/Favor Boxes to choose from for your packaging needs.  You have the option of choosing printed boxes, mini size, and regular size.  Each set includes 6 boxes, 6 pieces of flowers and 6 pieces of ribbon, labels and box bases.  The mini size box is  2″ x 2″ while the slightly larger regular size box is 3″ x 3″. The printed boxes, which are the same size as the regular boxes, feature images such as flowers, rabbits, argyle, polka dots, panda bears, and robots.

And be sure to look around the site, I also noticed a kid friendly cupcake stamp, a cute miniature spiral cupcake notebook, a cupcake card set for kids, or a bird topped cupcake greeting card!

You’ve got to see it to believe it! 

“Sweet Cake” as one is called, is a gift for anyone who loves a fun, yet practical design.  Or for someone who loves cupcakes, of course.  Not only are they versatile in use, but they also come in 10 different colors. 

Dutch product designer Beerd Van Stokkum says the giant cupcake liners can be used as a sandbox, baby bath, planter, or dog bed, but really, the options are probably endless.    A”Sweet Cake” measures approximately 11×28 inches and costs € 149 or $225.

I know that cupcake obsession appears to be a predominantly female hobby but let’s not forget those awesome men out there that love these sweet treats too!   I know that we  have a strong male following here at ATC and I want to recognize their cupcake needs too.   So today I found some items on Ebay and Etsy that would make great Father’s Day gifts.

Hello Hanna has created these sweet stands, perfect for displaying cupcakes!  They are easy to assemble with no gluing or cutting necessary.  For $10.95 you get a pack of 6 white stands made from recycled paper.

We recently shared with you a few fun cupcake salt and pepper shakers.  Today, my sister who is in Europe just showed me this great cupcake salt and pepper shaker from Urban Outfitters Europe.  I am jealous of anyone who lives in Europe and can order themselves this cute set for only £7.00!

Yesterday we shared with you a cute Betsy Johnson Cupcake Bikini.  Why not get this cute pink cupcake beach towel to keep you dry? For only $25 it’s available from Jeanie B: Gifts and Homewares.

Three Designing Women have created an assortment of unique stamps including a customizable cupcake stamp.  The stamp shown above says “From the kitchen of ___” but  you could add your address or business name, if you so desire.  The stamp is $39.99 and can be purchase from various online sources including organize.com.

Gnawing at your nails has never been so tasty!

Ditsy Daisies, our ATC sponsor has just alerted us to this adorable new cupcake manicure kit from Cupcakes and Cartwheels. Below is the apple green encased cupcake with a vanilla and strawberry topping, complete with cherry! But if you prefer your cupcake to be chocolate and strawberry or vanilla and chocolate, don’t despair as Ditsy Daisies provide three to choose from!

However, the best thing about these beautiful little cupcake cases, is that within their pastel lined interior they have everything to keep your nails in pristine condition.  All cupcakes contain a pair of nail clippers, nail file, tweezers, cuticle pusher and scissors, perfect to keep in your handbag for any and every nail emergency.

Tag is one of my favorite brands since they always have fun products.  I noticed they have Cupcake Frosted Glass Votives which come in four different colors, each each featuring a different cupcake style.  I know these would brighten my birthday and add a little color to any table!

LeSportSac bags are always fun and unique, which is part of why I loved them so much.  I currently have a few different styles and patterns but after coming across this print, I think I might need another one.  You can never have too many bags right?  Especially when this one is covered in cupcakes!  The LeSportSac website offers the cupcake print on 23 different styles.  Zappos, which doesn’t charge for shipping, has the cupcake print available in two styles, Erika which I have with a different patter; It’s a great sized bag even for everyday use.  The other, slightly larger option is the Everygirl Tote.  Both of the styles offered by zappos are show below.

6 Fancy Berries & 4 Cupcakes

While the news about Cakespy opening her own gallery broke last month, the Cakespy Shop grand opening was only just this last Saturday.  Since I live down the street from Capitol Hill’s newest cupcake art space, I go to stop by and join the party.

Cakespy Shop was packed by a rotating crowd of well-wishers and art buyers. I expected there to be a good crowd (we do love our cupcakes and cute art in this town), but this was a really good showing even taking that into account.

I admit, the Cakespy appeal was probably helped just a tiny bit by the free Trophy Cupcakes and complimentary performance by Mr. Cakespy’s band, Exohxo. The cupcakes were delicious and adorably appointed with images from Cakespy’s “Scenes from Capitol Hill” series and Exohexoh’s charming melodies and singing violins made a lovely accompaniment.

Exohexoh: I can't believe that an 8 person band could fit in this store, but they did it.
