Cupcake Stepping Stone

By on Monday, August 20th, 2012

I am loving this Cupcake Stepping Stone Kit I found on Walmart.com today.  Each kit comes with enough supplies to make one 12 inch stone.   I would love a whole path of these cupcakes leading up to my front door but for $16.47 plus .97 shipping for each, I may just have to settle for one accent stone for my garden.  They also come in flower, star, turtle and many other shapes and have been spotted at Michael’s too.

Dylan’s Candy Bar

By on Thursday, August 16th, 2012

Ever since I was a kid, I have had a big sweet tooth. I can remember going to the grocery store with my mom and just drooling over all the candy bars and sweets.  Just last year, my hubby and I ventured to Dylan’s Candy Bar in New York and I truly felt 8 years old again.  Just walking in that store you get a sugar high from the sweet smell!  They had pretty much every kind of candy you could ever dream of.  And they had cupcake stuff too! You must check out their site to see it all but here’s two of my irresistible favorites.  FYI- The store was started by Dylan Lauren, the daughter of famed designer Ralph Lauren.  Love this family!

Hair Clip Holder

By on Thursday, August 9th, 2012

My little girl has so many hair clips that end up all over the house and usually right under my feet!   AJO Creations has a simple and sweet solution.  These clever little holders hang on the wall so you can clip those little clips right to the hanging ribbon.  Love them all but of of course the cupcake is my favorite.  But for only $3.75 each, maybe I can afford them all!

Cupcake Jars

A few days ago Candid Cupcake shared with you how mason jars are very in right now.  She is so right- they seem to be all over Etsy!  Mason jar covers, Mason jar candles, and of course, Mason jar cupcakes.  And I know these aren’t technically Mason jars but how amazing are these faux icing topped glass jars?    For $28 you get a set of 6 colorful creations made by 12 Legs Curiosities. Perfect for cupcake in a jar or as a favor at a wedding or party.  Love, love, love!

 

Cupcake Buttons

By on Thursday, July 19th, 2012

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?

Cupcake Bike Helmet

By on Wednesday, July 11th, 2012

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!

Hostess Wedding Cake

By on Thursday, July 5th, 2012

I have been a big Hostess fan ever since I was a little kid.  There is something special about opening up one of their plastic packages and enjoying that overly sugary sweetness.  Yum!  While surfing the Hostess website today I found the coolest wedding cake ever!  It took the groom only one hour to make this cake from Twinkies, Cupcakes, Ding Dongs, Ho Hos, Suzy Q’s, Sno Balls and Mini Muffins. 

They also had several recipes that use the desserts to make new and different creations.  I so want to try this Black Forest Dessert that is made with a whole package of Hostess cupcakes!
