{Birthday Week} Hello, Cupcake! Giveaway

My twin Amber and I (and also my sister-in-law Erika) love to make fun themed cupcakes. Especially when they’re simple to do. Our ideas for these themed cupcakes come from the books Hello, Cupcake! and What’s New, Cupcake? – simply ingenious cupcake ideas for every occasion.

Some of the ideas we’ve used from these books include bowling pins (for a bowling birthday party), popcorn, owls (family reunion), pies (family reunion), ducks (baby party ), Christmas tree ornaments (family Christmas party), and more! You can pick a party theme and find a cupcake for it in these books. Or you can go the other way and pick a cupcake to make then center the theme around that. We’ve totally done that too! And you don’t have to necessarily use these specifically for birthday parties or themed parties. We’ve brought them to family reunions, Christmas parties, made them for neighbor gifts, and so on.

This book is just full of fun ideas for different cupcakes. Its also includes awesome tips for decorating without having to buy piping bags, tips, couplers, etc. You can do all of these fancy designs with items you already have at home. Pretty awesome! And they look just like they would if you used decorating tools. Not to mention all the fun things you can do with candy on these cupcakes. Fun!!
