Ooh, thank you for the giveaway offer! I found out about Cupcake Couriers recently, and would love to have one. What do you think about "Hearts & Flowers" sprinkles to show how much you love your sweeties?

I would like to see water slices for sprinkles. I think that would be a very summery way to make cupcakes.

I just love these carriers. Would really love to win one. My sprinkle idea would be happy faces. Nothing puts a smile on your face, like a smiley face.
Thanks for this giveaway and please enter me.

Last 4th of July I made mini cupcakes and iced them with white frosting. Then, just around the edge of the cupcake I sprinked tiny blue sugar (Wilton makes this) and then right in the middle of the cupcake I put a red M&M. They were very cute and very patriotic!

Monique said...

Beautiful ideas everyone! I like monogram sprinkled cupcakes! Thanks for the giveaway!

Tim Sternberg said...

What do you think about "Hearts & Flowers" sprinkles.

Claire Roach said...

I love sprinkles that have little shapes. I think it would be fun to put some paisley-shaped sprinkles on my cupcakes. Or maybe a colorful sprinkle mix that has different fruit shapes like lemons, limes, cherries, oranges, and pineapples.

Natalie said...

I love lavender and sage. So I'd make sprinkles in those colors and white in the shapes of daisies and dragonflies. (You can totally tell I have daughters, huh?)

Kelley said...

Well, being a mom of a boy, the sprinkles are all entirely to 'girly'....He will eat them of corse; but I would love to have some sprinkles that would appeal to little boys. What comes to mind first: cars, truck, boats, planes....those are easy. What would really send my miscreant of a toddler over the edge would be worm sprinkles or spider sprinkles or bugs- any bug- and the more the better.

Thanks CLassy Mommy and The Cupcake Corner for this great event!

Thinking About Compassion said...

I would love to see some fairies or ballerina sprinkles! Since my girls just love dancing around and pretending to be princesses, this would be perfect for them!

Unknown said...

My disabled daughter loves cupcakes but they are always falling over and are left a mess after she tries to help herself. This would be a real boost to her self esteem and to me in the clean up department.

stacey said...

My sprinkle design would be a four pack that had sprinkles for different seasons:

Winter: snowflakes in blue & white & maybe a snowman
Spring: flowers, birds, pastel colors
Summer: suns, ocean waves, sunglasses, little beach balls, bright colors
Fall: leaves and pumpkins in fall colors

thanks for the entry!! I've been eying these for a while now! :)

Betty C said...

I'd love to have flower sprinkles, red roses, yellow daffodils and purple irises.

Sky said...

I'd like to have candle sprinkles. Just a few sprinkles on top of the cupcake...what a way to celebrate!

Shana said...

My boys love Star Wars, so I would love Star Wars sprinkles!!! Little Vader, light sabers, Yoda, space ships. That would be awesome!!!

And have I mentioned how cool it would be to win this contest? Oh, yeah, I guess that I have...lol!!!

Joanna said...

My girls love sprinkles. But to me they all taste the exact same! I would love to have red sprinkles that taste like cherries, purple ones that taste like grape, yellow like lemon, green would be lime, orange would be oranges, white could be coconut, blue could be blueberry, and so on....This would be a great sprinkle idea! You could then make chocolate cupcakes with cherry sprinkles! Whola...Chocolate covered cherry cupcakes!

noreen said...

Hippo sprinkles (my daughter loves hippos) and for my other daughter pink and yellow teddy bears sprinkles. Along that theme a whole zoo of animals would be fun, monkeys, alligators, flamingos, rhinos and even giraffes.

Anonymous said...

What about bubbles or popsicles or ice cream sprinkles? That would be too cute on a cupcake.

Tarasview said...

fairy dust sprinkles- some sort of shimmery eatable sugar that makes cupcakes look like they've been sprinkled with fairy dust!

Anonymous said...

Since I'm in a summer kind of mood, How about some sprinkles in the shapes of flip flops, beach balls, watermelon slices, sunshines, and sunglasses...That all just SCREAMS summer to me! Thanks for such a fun giveaway!

Oohh I soooo need one of these....I would love little sports balls sprinkles. We are contantly going to end-of-the-season parties for our 5 boys!

Kim B said...

Let's face it - Moms love cupcakes just as much as their little ones do (maybe even more)! My day revolves around taking care of the little guy and I enjoy it, but Moms have a hard time putting their own interests first. I'm going to do just that. If I'm designing my own sprinkles I want sprinkles I'll go ga-ga over even if the little guy doesn't get it (nor does he really care - sprinkles just taste yummy as far as he's concerned). So my sprinkles will be shoes and handbags - tons of bright colors to dress up any cupcake! I know there are plenty of moms out there who would love to put the kiddos to bed and sit down with a glass of wine and a cupcake decorated with colorful shoes and handbags! :)

Stacey Moore said...

we would love to see some baseball or basketball sprinkles!! thanks

Uniquely Yours said...

For my sprinkles I'd have little princess crowns. As for needing this giveaway I recently had a major cupcake accident for Bible night--treat night and ended up running to the grocery store for snacks.

windycindy said...

Hello, Two things I have noticed on the sites that I go to. Tutus are big and going green is also! How about tutu sprinkles?! For eco-conscious
cupcake eaters, maybe tiny trees or
bicycles. I don't know if it is possible, but name sprinkles are something I would enjoy buying! Pleas enter me in your courier drawing. Many thanks,Cindi

One last suggestion, college mascots, logos or names. Cindi

My sprinkles idea is:

BEN 10.

I've got a 4 year old unbelievably into BEN 10, maybe the watch-y thing? Omnitrix??

Mindy said...

Three words: Disco Ball Sprinkles! That could make for some groovy parties! :) Thanks for entering me!

Sprinkles in the pattern of fireworks!

I would love to NFL sprinkles. I have high hopes for the Dallas Cowboys this year and would love to see blue and silver stars with brown footballs. Thanks for the contest.

Flower sprinkles are so sweet and cheery!

I would love to have snowflake sprinkles or angels for the holidays.

Anonymous said...

What an good idea for a contest. If I were Queen of the sprinkle world, I'd make brown monkey faces that taste like good dark chocolate. And googly eyes would be a nice bonus touch.

Or "career" sprinkles_ apples for teachers, hammers for construction workers, band-aids for nurses. Oh, this would be hard - have to make sure the sprinkle is not something gross like an enema for a proctologist.

This cupcake courier looks awesome. In case I am the winner, my address is as follows: susan2009 at gmail dot com.

I think it would be cool to have sprinkles in all the different numbers - that way if you're child was turning ten you could sprinkle ones and zeros all over his cupcakes. Cute!

Fireworks, hearts, and butterflys all sound fun to me.

I would make sprinkles that celebrate the little changes in life: teeth--for when a little one loses a tooth, little houses if you move, ABCs for starting school...all the changes that are worth celebrating.

I would love to have some bling sprinkles :) Little sprinkles that dazzle up your cupcakes! They could be metallic silver, gold, blue, green, etc! Everyone can always use a little bling :)

This would be great to take cupcakes to the great guys I work with!!!

lizskit said...

That would be so cool. My children loves cup cakes.

Laura said...

My idea would be for mothers day, on a chocolate cupcake. Create a flower using green sugared gummi candy for the stem and leaves, then use a yellow sugared candy for the flower bud. Then leave a sweetheart candy with the saying 'I love you' next to the flower. Makes me want to bake some cupcakes right now!! laurachilton {at} hotmail {dot} com

phxbne said...

I would try to do initials for everyone present. I am from Australia and sprinkles are called 'hundreds and thousands' which I think is more fun!

goalmom said...

We could all use a little luck every now and then. My design would be green four leaf clovers.

I'd like to see themes for holidays. Ex: snowflakes, hearts, flowers, umbrellas, flowers, sunshine, american flags, apples, pumpkins, turkeys, cornucopias, wreaths, christmas trees, candy canes, etc....

Natalie said...

My daughter loves sprinkles so much that some times (if she gets to apply the sprinkles herself) when she is eating her pudding with sprinkles it sounds like she is eating rocks!

I would like cartoon character theme sprinkles but I would also like sprinkle stencils that are easy to work with and decorate my cupcakes using colored sugar and elaborate stencils....now wouldn't that be impressive! :-)

Tara said...

I think sprinkles with shine would be nice. Like gold and silver! Would sass up the cupcakes with shapes of sparkling gold and silver stars.

Tim Sternberg said...

"Hearts & Flowers" sprinkles.

Amira said...

i would liek number and letter sprinkles for preschoolers!

Kerrie's Musings said...

I would design Gerbera Daisy sprinkles.

I would have the petals be beautifully vivid colours that match the colours of Gerbera Daisies, in various hues:red, orange, pink, yellow, coral etc.

Then the center of the Gerbera Daisy sprinkle would be matched appropriately to the colour.

I think the Gerbera Daisy sprinkles would have to be double sided so that no matter how they were placed you would see both the petals and the centers.

They should also come in various sizes. Then you could use them according to the project you were working on. For instance, if you had made some cupcakes, you could take one large gerbera daisy sprinkle, and place it in the center of your cupcake with a mint leaf or two to make it look very pretty.

My other idea for sprinkles would be a high end sprinkle. Ready made sugared edible flowers. Those would be for people who love the look of the sugared edible flowers but without the time or knowledge of how to go about creating them.

Flip Flop sprinkles. Get you ready for the summer. Put them on a cupcake with green icing. Walking in the sweet grass.

~JS~ said...

What a wonderful giveaway! My idea for the sprinkles would be numbers - my twins are turning one! I will have cupcakes with light pastel icing and then sprinkle the number one all over! I could do this yearly!!!

I think a vibrant tropical flower made with colored sugars would be great-Kristina

sprinkles that shimmer please. When you have a design like butterflies or flowers, let us buy a package of butterflies separated into 4 different colors. That way we can have various colors to choose but all within the same theme.

I think I would cut out a stensile of a 5 petal flower and hold it above my frosted cupcake as I dust the brite sprinkles . Hopefully they fall in a general flower pattern; and I top it off with a M&M. Love the cupcake holder!

Beth said...

I would design my sprinkles as follows:
With the flower shaped sugar sprinkles, I would carefully design them in a same flower shape on top of the cupcake, using pastel icing.

I have never heard of this product before and it is GENIUS!! I can think of many cupcake situations where I could've really used a Cupcake Courier!!

Thank you for the chance to win!
