Easy Cupcake Carrier

July 7, 2008 by Kayla · Leave a Comment 

We’ve all been there. It’s time for the party so you load up the chips, the dip, the plates, napkins, etc. Slowly, you place your perfect cupcakes into the passenger seat next to you.

With each turn, stop, and start, (no matter how slow you go) the tiny little cakes shift and slide into each other. By the time you get to the party, your cupcakes only slightly resemble the ladybug cupcakes you had started the drive with.

Don’t worry. We’ve all be there and it’s a totally normal problem. I myself struggle with transporting cupcakes… that is, I used too until I ran across the brilliant little tray. This cupcake transporter is so great!

There are individual slots for each cupcake so they don’t slide. Also, there’s a durable plastic lid which snaps on to secure all the cupcakes. Really, for me, there is no better way to carry cupcakes than this lovely cupcake carter.

In addition, the three trays to this cupcake carrier can be removed and you suddenly have a cake carrier… equally as efficient. This cupcake carrier is durable and such a fun color. You can transport one cake or up to 36 cupcakes!

This convenient cupcake carrier is only about $30… which for me is a relatively small price to pay considering what I’m really buying is peace of mind when it comes time to transport my cupcakes.

You can get your own cupcake carrier right here! Check it out!

In the summertime, there’s nothing like a relaxing day on the beach. You get sand in your hair and in your shoes and it’s completely okay… but what about if it were in your cupcakes?

Although it sounds crazy, these cute beach cupcakes will remind you of your days spent in the sun and worry-free. For those of you who’d rather catch a wave than a tan, there are cute little shark cupcakes as well.

These shark cupcakes make you feel like your right in the water with them. These beach and shark cupcakes make a great addition to any party, gathering, or a regular day!

So surf’s up, tide’s out and cupcakes are in… enjoy!
