For the cupcake lover that has everything..


The cupcake car - a snip at $25,000!! Yes that's right $25, 000!!

Currently for sale at Neiman Marcus;

Put on your matching hat, slip under the muffin top of your Cupcake Car, and let the world figure itself out for awhile. Get (or give) the sheer, joyful chaos of a gift that is mind-blowing, triple-dog-dare, double-infinity forever cool. Make the kids or grandkids literally squeal with joy. Bring it to work and buzz the breakroom. Crash parades! Putter about the ‘hood. Ever had a crowd of kids chasing after you just for the crazy gleeful heck of it? (No worries, the top speed is a comfy-safe 7 mph.) What’s it made of? A 24-volt electric motor, a heavy-duty battery, sheet metal, wire, fabric, wood…and mad genius. Launched at Burning ManSM as a cooperative art car project, the Cupcake Car sprang from the fevered mind of Bay Area artist Lisa Pongrace and her less-rules-more-laughs posse of artists and techno geeks. Yours will be tricked out with your favorite topping, so start thinking flavors.

I LOVE the thought of anyone "puttering about the 'hood" in one of these - I can just imagine the looks you'd get driving through New Cross or Peckham in one..lol. And I adore the fact you can get it pimped to resemble your favourite cupcake...pimp my cupcake on MTV anyone?

This is one cupcake fad I can't really see catching on!

More cupcake shopping







It's taken a while to load up the pics - and they're a bit pants sorry!

The mug - with the cute sprinkles inside was only £2 from Next. I can't find this particular mug online but they do a set of others with cupcakes online if you can't get to the store!

The Mother's Day card is also from Next and the pen next to it (you can just make out a cupcake on it if you look hard!) is from Paperchase - it's part of their funny food range which also includes a bag and a recipe file which I think I just have to go buy! And finally the magnets are also from Paperchase - seriously that shop is just full of cute!

Cute birthday card


My mums birthday is in March so I was chuffed to see this adorable card on one of my many trips to Marks and Spencer's. I'm sure she'll love it! I always want to send her a cupcake but they go off too quickly in the post as they're all buttercream and stuff so I usually send her some magic cakes from Konditor and Cook or yummy macaroons from Paul or Laduree which she loves!


The card can also be bought online.

I pooped a cupcake?


Is it just me (and my sordid imagination!), or is this meant to be a poop frosted cupcake?


Whatever its frosted with its v.cute, although I'd not be quite so lapsidasical about it if I was going to eat it!

Fathers Day Cupcakes




It's Fathers Day here tomorrow in the UK and if you're in London it's not too late to pop to Selfridges to get your dad a few cupcakes from Lola's Kitchen! Unfortunately my step-dad is far oop North in Scotland so it's a bit difficult to get them up to him but I did get him this lovely cupcake Fathers Day card from Scribbler :)
