Cute Cupcake Gift Ideas #2

I know this may be a shocker, but I love cupcakes.  They are such cute little bundles of sweetness and versatility.  You can dress them up to be super fancy or dress them down to be simple but beautiful.  You can make the flavours  complex and sophisticated or playful and fun.  But no matter how you like to eat them, they are always delicious!  Long story short, I like them a lot.  And have gotten many fun cupcake themed gifts from some wonderful friends and family.  Here are a few items I've gotten over the years that I love and still enjoy today.  Maybe these will be the perfect gift for someone on your list... 

Cupcake Apron
No cupcake baker's outfit is complete without a cupcake apron.  You can get lots of different styles and colours of aprons...the trick is finding them.  Check out your local market, eccentric kitchen shop or, if you have time, online.  And if you're really crafty, you can make one yourself!  There's nothing better than a gift that's been homemade - even if it's not baked!

Cupcake Pajamas
Got someone on your list who dreaming of cupcakes? Get them some fun cupcake pajamas.  There are so many different styles out there that you can even make this one a gift tradition making the next few years a snap!  You can find cupcake pajamas at any pretty much any store that sells sleepwear.  I've seen them at Walmart, LaSenza, Winners, Sears, and The Bay to name a few.

Cupcake Serving Platter
Need a super simple gift that won't have you questioning the size or style?  What about a cupcake serving tray?  You can get lots of fun designs, sizes, and shapes that can not only be used to serve cupcakes, but lots of other sweet treats like chocolates, cookies, brownie..you get the idea.  You can even fill it with your own baked treats if you feel like the platter just isn't enough, like a dozen Eggnog Cupcakes...recipe to come in my next post!
