I think we can all agree that there is no better way to spend New Years Day than eating and baking cupcakes! If you agree with me, than I have found a great recipe for you to try from the blog La Mia Vita Dolce.
These look so fabulous and they are visualually stunning!
I was perusing Etsy the other day when I stumbled upon Geneva Designs. This is a great little business with lots of homemade good such as vintage aprons, kids styled aprons, sewing kits and hot pads. But it was these adorable cupcake ones that they have just loaded onto Flickr that grabbed my attention! I love how bright and fun they are!
Given Christmas is only just around the corner, my eyes are alert for the best Xmas bargains I can find. These would be perfect for any baker or cupcake maker! You can never have too much in the way of hot pots or hand towels especially if they are covered in cupcakes or, as the second ones are, the tools of the trade.
I find that this time of year is particularly hard for cupcake hunters like me. It seems that many stores use cupcakes in the Valentine’s decorations so now they are popping up everywhere just screaming for me to take them home! I have to use extreme self-restraint because they are all so cute!
Here’s what I found at Target:
Oven Mitt and Pot Holder Set and Jar
Target also had kids utensils, divided trays and plates with cupcakes on them.
And Kohl’s had even more sweet items:
My Kohl’s store also had cupcake welcome signs, table runners, picture frames, large bowls, hand towels, cookie jars, adult aprons, kid aprons and jar candles. They are all between 30%-50% off their price this week. I must resist!
How do you know when your cupcakes are ready to come out of the oven? With your cupcake kitchen timer, of course!
