Yesterday wasn't Caleb's birthday but I had to make cupcakes and take them to his preschool anyway. Due to another kids birthday celebration next Tuesay then Jesus's birthday party on Thursday and Christmas break after that it was decided to do Caleb's birthday this week (his birthday isn't until the 23rd). Anyway, because of all this I was able to use my handy little cupcake carrier!!!
I bought it last year while we were still in Michigan. I was in the grocery store doing what people do, you know, grocery shopping, when I came across this little number. It holds 24 cupcakes and has the nifty carry 'thingy'. Isn't it great??? The first thing I did (after my Oooing and Ahhing) was look at the price. $19.99 Why is it that things cost more than I think they should? I considered the price and almost passed, but then I realized that this baby is worth every penny! I also envisioned all the years ahead of my children going to school and needing to take caupcakes for their birthday celebrations. And then I saw looks on the faces of other mothers and heard their comments on how wonderful this cupcake carrier was and how they wanted one and where could they get one. Not that I want others to envy me, I don't, I just realized how totally practical this baby is and that, yes, it is completely worth the $19.99. So I bought it. Yeah me!
Do you want one? Are you thinking "where did she get that?" and "I want one too!"??? Well, my dears, I have done some research for you. After another mom at Caleb's school asked me where I got mine I had to tell her I got it in Michigan. Her response, "Well, I need to go to Michigan!" (really, though, why would anyone go there except to buy this?) I really did want to tell her where she could get one so I went online and found that it can be bought here for the same price that I paid (not bad eh?). While doing my search I also found this other kind of carrier that can hold cup cakes or a cake! Cost, $32.99. (on a total side note....I found this through someone else's blog, and her blog was cool! it was all about baking! and she had pictures and reciepes for tons of delightful things. mmmm.....I'm going to have to be a frequent visitor).
So, there you go, not one but two choices. Are you totally impressed? Are you thinking "what a fabulous item" and that you" want one too"? Well....your welcome.

Ohhh yay...Im so glad you posted this! For Nathan's b-day I ended up just buying them already done at the grocery store b/c I couldn't figure out how to transprot them if I baked them. I thought about a couple different ways but it all ended up with a vision of cake and icing smashed all over the inside of my car. Thanx for the info...I will have to buy this :D
Speaking about baking...I just did up a couple batches of these yummy cookies yesterday. They are so good for anyone who LOVE chocolate.
Cake Batter Cookies
Devils Food Cake Mix
2 sticks butter
2 eggs
1 pkg semi-sweet choc chips
*Mix all ingrediants well
Drop tablespoon size amount on ungreased cookie sheet..Bake @ 350 for about 8-9 minutes
ENJOY :D
That is a cool kitchen gadget. My only problem is the storage of such a thing in our little townhouse. I so want a cake holder to transport my wares, so that one that works for cupcakes and cakes is very tempting. But alas, storage is still a problem!
Oooo! I want one too!! I make these lemon cupcakes where you cut a circular chunk out of the top, spoon in lemon filling, but the top back on, then sprinkle with icing sugar. They look so pretty but they invariably get smushed. I have this crazy desire to go grocery shopping in case Save-On Foods carries those! ~lol~ And we're having a potluck at church on Sunday and everything!
Wow, those look neat! But like Mary, we have to much stuff in too little of a house. But you can buy the plastic cupcake containers that the grocery stores use, they'll charge you a couple of bucks, and then when your done, you can toss it.(at least you can buy them at S-way here)
