Blogiversary Giveaway Part 2 WINNER!
Another late announcement here. It’s been really hard for me to blog this week because of work stuff and just being busy. Again, sorry for the delay.
I realized that in my announcement of the first week’s winner, I forgot to mention which cookbooks I had and which ones I wanted. I’ve gone back and updated that post if you’re interested.
Below is the breakdown of what everyone said they would choose if they won. I really enjoyed reading about your favorite flavor combinations on Facebook as well. I’m going to have to come back to those comments when I need inspiration for my next cupcakes!
28.0% Snapware Cupcake Carrier – This is hands down my favorite cupcake item in the kitchen. It’s great for carrying all kinds of desserts and it’s very compact compared to other carriers out there
22.8% Colorful Cupcake Liners – I use these liners and love them. They keep their color very well.
16.6% Martha Stewart’s Cupcake Cookbook – Another item I have and love.
10.9% Wilton 12 piece Decorating Set – This is one of the first cupcake items I got. Since then I have gotten two huge piping tipes that I prefer over the smaller ones.
8.8% 24-cup Muffin Pan – I would love to have one of these instead of dealing with two pans at a time.
8.8% 4 oz Scoop – My spring loaded ice cream scoop has died. I use it to portion cupcakes so I need a new one.
4.2% Wilton Icing Colors – I got these last year and actually rarely color my frosting. I ned to remember to do that more often.
And now on to the winner. Again, I used Random.org to find the winner.
Congratulations Angie from Telly’s Tasty Tidbits! As you can see Angie chose the colorful cupcake liners. Be sure to email me with your address so I can get your prize sent out.
Thanks everyone who entered last week. Be sure to enter the final blogiversary giveaway before midnight on Friday!
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
Love PB Blossoms
