CONTEST CLOSED 500K Subscriber Contest- Baking Kit Giveaway!

August 31, 2014 by Jenn

We recently passed 500 thousand subscribers on our YouTube channel, and I am completely humbled and honoured that we accomplished this!  Paul and I work alone in our kitchen, only a team of two people.  We come up with ideas, film, edit, and upload the videos all on our own.  Without any help along the way, we have relied on our YouTube subscribers to carry us along and become successful online.  It has been an amazing journey, and my sights are set on 500K more!!  

To thank our subscribers, I went shopping on a weekend trip to Spokane.  I was in my happy place getting to buy all of these fun cake supplies!  I chose some of my favourite baking tools that I use everyday while making cakes and cupcakes. 

Included in the giveaway are the following prizes:

  • Round baking pan (set of four pans)
  • Fondant roller
  • 1M icing tip
  • 24 piping bags
  • piping bag elastic ties
  • 300 cupcake liners
  • Cake spatula
  • Deluxe decorating kit (offset spatula, tips, coupler, icing bags)
  • 8 Americolor gel paste colours
  • Cake Turntable

This contest is open worldwide to subscribers of Cookies Cupcakes and Cardio’s YouTube channel. 

Please leave a comment regarding what you will make first if you win this baking kit.

You must leave a valid email address and the winner will be contacted on September 30, 2014!  The winner will have 24 hours to contact us with a mailing address, or we will choose another winner.  The winner will be chosen using random draw.  

baking contest

Good luck to all, and THANK YOU for being subscribers!

    Congratulations Jenn on 500,000 subscribers!!!! I love your channel so much!!! I would create a bunch of your cakes and other of my recipes too. But I would create a cake for my grandpa’s memory. He died in 2007, and I miss him so much.

    What a great contest – thank you for sharing. Your site is great.
    If I won the contest would love to spend time baking with my children. My youngest Grace loves watching your videos and have recently baked many of the items because of your simple and easy instructions. Most of the ideas have been helpful for us to bake and give to the various after school groups they take part in.

    Hi Jenn! So I studied culinary in high school and ive always loved baking since I was little. I love to decorate cakes. I just never had the proper materials at home to do so and I like challenges so the first thing id make is a 3 tier cake.. ive never made one before so I think id be really fun to do.

    I’m very happy you’ve gotten so many subscribers! I’ve been following your blog/youtube channel for quite some time. Thank you for all the time you put into this. I love to bake, but i really need some new tools. Most of the things I have were passed down to me from my mom and much of it is older than I am. I sure would be extremely thankful to win some new things. The first thing I would bake is a cake for my wonderful niece. It’s her birthday in October and I promised her I would come up with something super special in time for her sweet 16. Or maybe I should make something for my momma to say thanks for letting me ‘borrow’ her stuff for so long! Anyway, hope I win! Even if I don’t please know that I really do enjoy your recipies. Thanks!

    I am a big fan of your channel and all your baking creations. You are one of the main reasons why I started baking and cake decorating. If I won the giveaway I would make my brother’s birthday cake which would be a dj turn table with the record being made out of homemade candy ,and the buttons and switches out of fondant. I would also make my cousin’s birthday cake which is a two teared cake that would be themed Super Mario World. Since Super Mario World has several different colors and shapes the gel food coloring and the different cake tips will be perfect for this. Thank you so much for the opportunity to enter. Congratulations on getting 500k subscribers, and happy baking!

    Hi Jenn! If I could win this awesome thing, I would try to recreate some of your baking creations and I would make some of my own cakes! It would be awesome to have all these baking supplies since we can’t afford all of these things in my family. If I could win the first thing I would make is a cupcake cake for my entire family. I think you’re really generous to give these things out for your youtube family and I hope I could win! Even if I can’t, I hope that the person who wins is really happy! Thanks Jenn!

    Hi, my name is Lior and I’m 16 years old. I really love your youtube channel and I watch all of your videos.
    As long as I can remember I have always loved baking and by now I have become the officiall baker of the family.
    If I win your contest (and I really hope I will) I will make my family all of the recipes that I have always wanted to make but I couldn’t because I didn’t have the right tools.
    Thank you very much for what you do for us baking lovers all over the world, plus- I hope I didn’t make too many grammar and spelling mistakes because obviously English is not my mother tongue.
    Hoping to hear from you-Lior:)

The bottom one would be blue with sliver outline with cupcakes all around it. I just want to say you inspire me so much. When I graduate from college I’ve decided to have a restaurant/bakery/bar. Thank you for opening my eyes on if types of pastries and cakes. You love!!!

    Hi, Jen. I love your videos and so does my friend and my sister. The only thing that I hate about it,though, is that I can’t recreate it! If I had all the kitchen tool that I needed I would have made everything I learned from you and the recipe books that I have. Love, Lizzie.

  42. Callie says
    September 14, 2014 at 10:49 am

    Congrats on 500k! I am a huge fan of your creative designs! I am 21 years old and I am an undergraduate student majoring in Art education. The first thing I would bake with this kit is a ginormous “Thank You” cakes. One for my parents and the other for my college counselor. I am a first generation college student, meaning no one in my family has a college degree and both of my parents are immigrants from Mexico. Had it not been for the support of my parents, and the scholarship and advice I got from my college counselor, I would not be where I am four years after graduating high school; much less obtaining a degree in “creativity” 🙂 If I win this kit I will send u photos and video of their reaction. Thank you for doing this!

  47. Corvette says
    September 14, 2014 at 7:13 am

    Congratulations! I started not to even bother entering because I’ve tried before and never win (lol), but I think this give away is so worth the try. I just made your Oreo cake for my fiances birthday. All I had was a big bowl a fork one 9inch pan (my handmixer broke as soon as I started) lol it took forever! I am still very pleased with how it came out! I wish I could post or send you a picture of it. I’m not sure what I would make first! I guess it depends on when it arrived. With Halloween coming up followed closely by my daughter birthday, Christmas, and my son birthday I would stay busy. No! To be totally honest with myself the day it arrived I would drop everything and start practicing (using your tutorials of course) in making and decorating wedding cakes because I really want to make my own cake for my wedding! That would be awesome! I’ve stayed up late watching the tutorials so many times already…… But thank you for the time and energy you put into your videos. You inspire do many people, keep up the amazing work. Goodnight! And no I’m not about to watch more tutorials…. Ok maybe the wedding cake ones one more time! 🙂

  48. Yazmin says
    September 14, 2014 at 7:10 am

    Congratulations Jenn on reaching 500k. If I were to win I would make your recipe cakes which I have before, bake cakes for schools so schools can have a bake sale and collect money for books and supplies. I would also bake for kids who aren’t fortunate to have a birthday party let alone a birthday cake. That’s what I would do. I hope to hear from you. Congratulations again.

  49. angie says
    September 14, 2014 at 6:27 am

    I have a passion for baking. If I won those supplies I would try so many new designs on my cakes. I would even try layered cakes. I love baking cakes for my family. I would make my dad a three layered cake for his birthday and be able to do it better with those supplies.
