Christmas Cupcake Liners from Sweet Cuppin Cakes

Posted by on Monday, October 27th, 2008

Ok, so it’s not even Halloween yet but I had to post about these lovely holiday cupcake papers from Sweet Cuppin Cakes Bakery & Cupcake Supplies because they’re so very, very cute that I actually felt a tinge of holiday spirit in my icy, black heart.

I have never been a fan of the typical red-and-green Christmas, but the pink and silver Christmas stuff gets me every time. If I could live in a world of sugar plum fairies and crinkle-eyed Santas I might never post another cuss word on my blog again.

But alas, baking gingerbread cupcakes in these pretty liners is as close as I’ll ever to get becoming a snow queen. Ah well, close enough.

Everyday is a Holiday Cupcake Ornaments

Posted by on Sunday, October 12th, 2008

Growing up, my family had a tradition that called for each family member choosing a new ornament each Christmas to represent the year about to pass. I have a ballerina from when I was four, a Lisa Simpson to represent the year I became a vegetarian and a Bettie Page for the year I spent in rounded bangs and saddle shoes.

Last year was the first time Tony and I had an apartment large enough for a small tree (silver tinsel, of course) and we kept the tradition alive with a train ornament for our son, and oragami ice cream, donuts and cupcake ornaments for me. (Keeping with tradition, Tony went unrepresented as he was generally quite uncooperative all year.)

This year, I still find myself obsessing over donuts, but I think I will be represented on our wee fake tree with these cupcake ornamets from Everyday is a Holiday. For only $36 you get four handmade cupcake ornaments, each backed with a vintage recipe, sweetly sparkly and hung with a candy pink ribbon. Packaged up like a precious parcel from your favorite old fashioned bakery, they’d be just as fun to find under the tree as hanging from the branches. Who needs gingerbread men, anyway?

Bake & Destroy’s Classic Monster Cupcake Toppers & More.

Posted by on Saturday, September 27th, 2008

I can’t think of a better way to decorate your cupcakes for halloween (or anytime) than with Bake & Destroy‘s super creepy, super awesome Classic Monster Cupcake Toppers.

They are only $6.00 and for something handmade, unique, unable to find anywhere else, what a great deal.

I also love these Horror Poster Cupcake Toppers too.

Basically, Bake & Destroy is going to take over the world with her cupcake toppers and merch. To be a part of take over, get an awesome shirt (I have the shirt and the hoodie. Srsly.)

Last but not least, she featured a delicious Pumpkin Cupcake recipe on her blog last year, and I am tempted to try but, but like her, what the heck is cream sherry? Hm…

She says “I was really trying to avoid the cliche of pumpkin cupcakes in October, but the other day my mother-in-law bought grocery store cupcakes right in front of me! I almost protested but then I realized I hadn’t baked for the woman in ages. She loves pumpkin, as does my husband and I happened to have a can in my cupboard. This recipe is from 125 Best Cupcake Recipes by Julie Hasson.”

Get the recipe here.

Ghouls love cupcakes.

Posted by on Saturday, September 20th, 2008

My friend Hillary- who is the only other mom at the park dressing her kids in Halloween costumes year-round- brought me this rotten little cupcake today from Suckers Candy Inc. I thought it was the cutest, and my two-year-old loved that it was filled with gummy worms.

Halloween is by far my favorite time of year for cupcake decorating. What are your favorite ghoulish Halloween treats? Send us your Halloween cupcake photos and you might see them posted here! Please be sure to credit the person who took the photo/made the cupcakes if it wasn’t you!
