Check out these health care cupcakes from Sweetie Cupcake. With decorations like these, they must be super healthy, right? These would be great for any health care professional’s celebration. If I ever graduate from medical school, will someone treat me to a batch of these?
I would like to dedicate this post to my niece, who is the biggest Justin Beiber fan in the whole world. (Just ask her.) I’ll admit, his hair does look pretty yummy here. Chocolate?
This cupcake was created by Sam’s Cake Factory of Karachi, Pakistan. Sam’s “transforms dreams into cake art.” Awesome!
Deeming these “eyelash cupcakes” sounds a little gross, but I’m sure they’re delicious. What I can’t figure out though, is how did she make those eyelashes? Are they edible? Any guesses? Are any of you fondant eyelash experts? Lizzies_cakes added this photo to Flickr today. Happy 21st to the lucky cupcake recipient!
I have seen a few Post-It pixels before but this was the first Post-It pixel cupcake! This would be a fun idea for a co-worker’s birthday if you forgot to pick up cupcakes on the way to the office!
If I had a little girl, I just might have to invest in these Fancy Frill Cupcake Diaper Covers. If you want to dress your little one up as cute as a cupcake, or if you’re searching for the perfect baby shower gift, check these out at Bed Bath & Beyond. They even come in cupcake packaging, so they would be all set to go for a shower!
I noticed this Pamper Your Dog, Scientific Explorer kit while on a recent trip to Barnes and Noble. For $19.95 you can make healthy cupcakes for your dog and then make tooth paste to brush your dog’s teeth! After the doggy Sprinkles cupcake our dog had in January I’m sure he’d love it if I made cupcakes for him!
Okay, so maybe I’m a tad obsessive, but I just can’t get enough of Shaun the Sheep! And I think these might be my favorite Shaun cupcakes so far. Does that frosting not look delicious! Those are some sheep that I could shear quickly! This photo is courtesy of Lisa Scranton’s Flickr photostream, where you can also find lots of other cool cake stuff!
OK, so maybe it’s still a tad bit early to start thinking about going back to school, but this is a pretty cute idea, and it doesn’t hurt to get started a little early. Go grab the supplies at your nearest Michael’s and plan a day to make these cupcakes. You could also make the cupcake stand to go with them if you’re feeling extra crafty. Maybe it will get your kids excited about the upcoming school year!
I have been buying and selling on Etsy for several years and everyday I am amazed by the skill of the many crafters there. Today I have to share with you one of the best polymer play artists I have ever seen. Check out these amazing cupcake buttons by Ayarina Designs. Wouldn’t they look perfect with something sewn in the cupcake fabric I shared in this post a few week ago?
I am a huge fan of Pinterest but at times I find my self clicking that “repin” and “like” buttons a little too much. I have so many baked goods pins right now there is no way I will ever get around to making them all! I have started to wonder with all the pins going around if things actually work, do the instructions for the DIY projects produce homemade items that look like the pictures? Do the recipes turn out to be as awesome as they look? I found Pintrosity, which claims that not all pins work out the way we hope they would.
The original pin, which I even have saved to my cupcake board, tells you to “Bake cupcakes for 5 minutes and then drop a Hershey Kiss in the center and continue baking. It sinks to the middle and makes a chocolate center!” According to Pintrosity, the cupcakes failed miserably. Years ago I made the red velvet cupcakes from Woman’s Day magazine that called for Hershey’s kisses in the batter before baking. When I saw the kisses in cupcakes idea on Pinterest I thought back to these cupcakes and how the kiss turned out hard. I thought the shortened baking time would help make the kiss soft and melty but Pintrosity says otherwise. Has anyone else tried these cupcakes? Did you end up with a chocolate center or a hard piece of chocolate? Any other Pinterest cupcake fails our there?
Oh my, the thought of white chocolate and strawberries is almost more than I can bear right now. And what better way to craft a butterfly then with a delicious, juicy strawberry? Visit Victorian Strawberries for a recipe and butterfly-crafting instructions!
I love the ombre effect trend that is popular right now! Between the celebrity hair styles and the Pinterest DIY ideas the ombre effect seems to be everywhere! Even stores like The Container Store have jumped on board with their ombre colored crunch cans! Somewhere Splendid definitely knows what’s popular right now! They blogged about how to make ombre effect vanilla cupcakes! You obviously don’t have to make your cupcakes blue like the picture, you can choose any color you like! These would be very cute for a baby shower!
I have always loved back to shopping; there is something about starting off the school year with all new products that I enjoyed. On a quick trip to Target over the weekend I found several cupcake items in their back to school section! There are dollar cupcake notebooks, composition journals, and folders. I also spotted two cute little cupcake coin purses that are also only $1.00. There was a pack of pencil erasers which included cupcakes for $1.99.
Most of us probably agree that ice cream is a wonderful summer treat. And of course, all of us agree that cupcakes are a wonderful treat no matter what season it is. So, what better combination than a Sugary Sweet Ice Cream Cupcake? These look extremely easy, and I love how you could do a number of toppings or different ice cream flavors to change things up a bit.
Carry your lunch in style (and keep it cool) with this cupcake cooler from Meijer.
I thought these Cupcake Poppers from Betty Crocker were very colorful and yummy-looking. Use a mini-muffin pan to make the tops and bottoms, and then whip up some frosting to sandwich in between. These would make a wonderful summer party treat!
In the market for a new summer nightgown? I just spotted this “sweet” cupcake nightie at Kmart. Only $11.99!
While perusing through Target today I was so excited to see something I have never seen before. This adorable cupcake helmet is only $22! I love all the lollipops, candy and cupcakes but the best part has to be the cherry on top! It is available in most stores and online. Too bad it is made for kids ages 8 and up because I would totally wear this!
These piña colada cupcakes not only look to be a tasty summer treat, but they are also claimed to be a heart smart recipe. With fat-free whipped topping, fat-free cake mix, and no egg yolks, this recipe certainly has some health perks (not to mention all the nutrients found in pineapple).
And what’s that stuff on top, you might be wondering? That’s toasted coconut. Yum!
I absolutely love my local running store, Fleet Feet Raleigh. They always have the best training programs, fun runs, and products. On a recent visit to the store I noticed a Brooks running shirt that had a cupcake on it! The shirt which is shown to the left, reads “run happy” is available on the Brooks website. The shirt comes in three different colors and short sleeve for $34.00 or long sleeve for $40.00. I have to admit I definitely run so I can eat cupcakes so this shirt would be perfect for me!
I have come to count on Walmart to have a few cupcake products every time I go in the store. I was excited to find the cupcake cups shown above for only $0.97 in the party section. They also had robots if you are looking for favors for girls and boys.
Walmart’s Hallmark Card section had several cupcake items including the cupcake gift bag shown above. The bag came in three different sizes, the middle size cost $2.97. There was also a pack of glitter cupcake stickers, shown to the right, that would make fun party favors or an easy gift if you include them with a birthday card.
Love root beer floats? Me too. Then we’d probably love ginger root beer float cupcakes from 52 Kitchen Adventures. Click here for the recipe!
Bloomsbury’s, a cafe specializing in boutique cupcakes and other sweets, opened at the Dubai Mall last week. At the opening ceremony, The Most Expensive Edible Cupcake, named “The Golden Phoenix”, was unveiled. The cupcake is valued at $1,010 and comes on a 24 carat gold cake stand.
What makes this cupcake so valuable, you might be wondering? Ms. Shafeena Yusuff Ali, in her quest to create the world’s most expensive cupcake, used these five expensive ingredients: Doves organic flour from the UK, Rachel’s organic butter from the UK, Amedei Porcelena cocoa from Italy, Gold Ugandan vanilla beans, and an edible 23 carat gold sheet.
It’s true–I never once imagined confetti cupcake poptarts. But, now that they’re here, I’m wondering what took Kellogg’s so long. Of course we need cupcake flavored poptarts, don’t we? A sweet vanilla cupcake-flavored center topped with white frosting and confetti sprinkles? Of course! And get them while they’re hot–limited edition only!
