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!

    If I happen to win, I would like to make a 2 tier birthday cake to my special aunt. Since young, she always dote on me, never fail to make me smile. But recently, she was diagnosed with cancer. I don’t know how long more she will be with us, but no matter what I still want to see her smile. So as her birthday is coming ( in dec), I would like to make her a birthday cake. Some days ago I tried your lemon cake recipe and my aunt is so in love with it. So i would like to make a 2 tier lemon cake for her birthday and decorate it beautifully so that she will be happy.

    I love how complicated your cakes look, but they are so easy. I try to make your cupcakes and cakes but they are way too messy when you use plastic bag for icing or a plate instead of a turn table. I would love making any of your cakes or cupcakes with the right tools. Keep doing what your doing ❤️❤️

    I would make a three tiered rainbow cake with white icing, and African fabric bow tied around it. I’ve always wanted to make that. With theses tools, I definitely will be able to make it. Especially with the colours, the colours I’ve tried always fade. Thank you for this.

    Hi Jen!

    Congratulations on you 500,000 subscribers! I’m so excited for you’ by the way, I LOVE your videos!!!

    If I won the giveaway, I would make a bunch of cupcakes and have a bake sale. With the money I make, I would donate to a Cancer Charity. I lost my gymnastics coach from cancer and my aunt has breast cancer so I feel like it would be best to donate money to hopefully find more cures. I’m against cancer and cancer is seriously the biggest bully out there. With the cake pans, I would make cakes for my friends’ and family’s birthdays. I would even make my own birthday cake because a homemade birthday is so much better than a store bought cake. These baking supplies would also help me perfect my decorating skills. When I grow up, I would love to own a bakery shop!

    I grew up with homemade birthday cakes. I am trying hard to continue that tradition now that I have a family. My husband’s birthday is the beginning of November, and I am going to try your Guinness Cupcakes for his birthday. This kit would be very useful.

    Hi Jenn!!
    I can’t believe I have a chance to win all this…you are the best!!!
    If I win this contest, I will definitely first make a rainbow cake because those colours are beautiful and bright, and in my first 2 attempts to make the rainbow cake I kinda failed, so it would be AMAZING for me to win this so that I could make the perfect rainbow cake and since I just moved to Canada, I wouldn’t have to buy so many things and plus this gift will remind me of you whenever I bake.
    Thanks!
    Best wishes, Zena

Also Halloween is coming up soon and this year it’s going on a Friday I would like to make Halloween cakes for party and make small desserts for up coming events, thanks you.

      I would give this set to my mom. She loves baking so so much, but we don’t have that kind of money to buy these things for her. My mom is always giving things up for her family, always putting her family before herself. She never buys anything for herself. I just wish I could giver her this, I think it would mean the world to her. She could bake so many things with that, she is so talented!! I would like to surprise her with this, to make her happy.

      Even if I don’t win this set for her, at least I tried, and good luck to everyone:)

      Yay! Congratulations on getting to 500k! This is so awesome and you seriously deserve it 🙂

      I’ve been trying to convince my parents to let me become a baker, but they just don’t think it’s practical. If I had a good starting kit, I would be able to make better treats. Also, I have a lot of friends with birthdays coming up and I’m always being asked to bake for them
