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!

    Wow Jen, this is absolutely amazing and the timing couldn’t be more perfect! I am a young full time mother of two and also an aspiring baker! My dream is to one day own my own bakery with my younger sister. I have been spending a lot of time practicing making cakes and even had a friend ask me to make them a tierd cake for their daughters birthday. Unfortunately money is tight so I can’t afford things like the cake turn table and all kinds of piping tips, etc. so this would be a huge help and a dream come true. I would use this gift to make my daughters birthday cake first and then many many cakes thereafter! Thank you so much for this opportunity and thank you for all your hard work in teaching us everything that you know 🙂

    Sincerely,
    An aspiring Baker
    Brittney

    Congratulations on reaching your 500,000 subscribers! Using all of the wonderful prizes, I would make blueberry cupcakes, not only are they one of my families favourite foods but, it was the first video I ever watched. I remember, straight after that video, I binge-watched all of your videos and I really enjoy (till this day) to watch your videos and your kindness is amazing, especially with this outstanding giveaway. Not only did you influence my choice to study home economics for my GCSE’s but to start baking cakes for family and friends. I am currently completing my final year of my cookery course. All of these prizes are out of this world and I would be absolutely shocked if I won them. My close friend has got a birthday coming up in October too, so I would use this to create a big cake to celebrate her 16th! Thank you so much for all of the knowledge and tips an tricks you have shared on your blog and YouTube channel, you have help me and 500,000 other people. Congratulations again! You are a huge inspiration to me. Thank you Jenn. 🙂 xxx

    Hi Jen! First I wanted to thank you all your work, I love to bake for my family (I’m 19) and you’re a GREAT inspiration for me. Your kindness made me watch all of your videos. 🙂 About the contest, I would love to make my father a 50th birthday cake. His favorit is cheesecake, as I once made him a simple one, because he never ate cheesecake before. 🙂 Now for the 5th X, I would do a big muffin cake for him, with nutella cheesecake filling in it and around the cake, I would place normal cupcakes with fondant bears sitting on them. The bears are my father’s favorit animals, he also has a teddy bear, whom he sleeping with… 😀 My mother always makes fun about him because of it. 😀 So this would be my idea, I hope it turns out good, if I get the equipment. 🙂 Thank you so so much for the opportunity, and keep up the good work! Be always as fantastic as you are now! (Sorry for my English, I’m Hungarian…) <3

    Hi my name’s Sara and I’m from Germany.
    I hope this contest is not only for people who live in america, anyway this is what I would do with these supplies:
    I would make a big starwars cake with all of these different cake pan sizes, because I LOVE starwars and I love baking and well I would LOVE a combination of both xD
    And I think my family would be happy about this to because they love it when I’m baking.
    I don’t know if I’m supposed to describe exactly what I would do with these supplies so I just do it 😀
    I think I would make a cherry-choclate-layered cake an use the food coloring to make cute little starwars characters for decoration. And then of course I would present the cake to my friends and family on the ckae board. ;D

    And I want to thank you for doing this and for sharing amazing recepies and decoration ideas! 🙂

    I hope my english is not that bad xD

    Hello Jen,
    First, I would like to say that I am fourteen and hope to win this as a gift for my mother. I love baking with her and would like to win this so we can bake a big cake and cake pops for Halloween. Which, coincidentally, is coming up and is our favorite time of the year! With this gift, we would probably make eye ball and jack-o-lantern cake pops and a big haunted mansion cake. And to pair with it, my moms special zombie punch- The best thing on the planet!! Its funny actually, because just yesterday we were in a local crafts department looking at all the amazing different cake equipment they gave us as an option. We were there for a good half hour, but didn’t buy anything sadly. Because i am so young, i cant get a job now to pay for something special to do for her like i hope to. My mom is an amazing woman who has a strong will, great sense of humor, amazing talent, and magnificent imagination- Alot like you actually.(:
    There is but the slimmest chance that I would win, but in the rare circumstance that i would. I would be blessed. If i don’t though, I hope the lucky winner does something amazing. As they deserve it.
    Thank you for this opportunity and congratulations on 500k subscribers!!! You deserve it.(
    :Best wishes,
    Haley Hines

    Hi jenn! This lot would be helpful to me because I would finally be able to have the tools to properly decorate a birthday cake. The first cake I would like to make is a layered m&m rainbow cake. The a medicine gels would give me much more vibrant shades to make the rainbow. Thank you for considering me!
