Cake pops. The baking world just can’t get enough of them.
(excuse the phone picture quality in this photo)
I was asked to bake something for a birthday; how could I say no? Baking really is my passion. From the little decorating details to the labor of love put into each treat, I can’t get enough.
You can see my previous cupcake pops and bouquets here, here, and here.
Because it’s Friday, because I love you guys, and because it’s my birthday, I’m doing a giveaway.
You’ll be getting all this goodness from Crate & Barrel. I went shopping on my birthday just to pick out these treats for you guys: A vibrant apron, the cookbook Giada at Home, an individual cupcake to-go container, and burger basket liners (that I normally use for cookies and picture taking). Don’t you feel special? We can learn how to cook together!
What, a giveaway on my birthday? That doesn’t even make sense.
Of course it does! You see… I’m too old to be receiving gifts, so I figured that I’d give a gift away instead. On my birthday, it’s everyone’s birthday; We all get to share in the love.
My blog would be nothing without word of mouth. Especially in these last few weeks, I’ve never felt more grateful for you guys and for your support. Thank you!!
To enter this giveaway, I want you to spread the word. Tell a stranger, post it on Facebook, tweet about it, write an email… however you choose do it, tell others about this giveaway or my blog. Leave a comment telling me how you chose to spread the word and an email address for me to reach you at. A link to your status update is a plus! Giveaway ends a week from today, Friday, September 2nd, 2011 at 11:59 PM Pacific time and a winner will be chosen via random.org. Open to US residents only, sorry!
Good luck!
