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 on 500K subscribers. You totally deserve it. Your channel is just wonderful.
    If I won the baking kit, I’d make adorable cupcakes for my friends and family. I might also try my hand at a three tier cake, but I’m no professional 😉

    Congratulations on 500K subscribers! And on behalf of everyone entering this competition/ giveaway I’d like to say a huge thank you! If I was to win *fingers crossed* then I would make burger cupcakes and serve them to my friends when they come over. I’ve never tried the American Food Colouring so that is an experience within itself. Anyway, congratulations and have a great day, thank you :3

    Congrats on all the subscriptions! I know I had something to do with all of those… I was a cake decorator for a small-town bakery before I went off to college (where I am now); but whenever I go home on a break or holiday, I’m always the one to make the special desserts for the celebrations; and coming from a big, hungry, Canadian French family, that’s a lot! I love your ingenuity and can’t wait to get home for Thanksgiving to make a fall themed checkerboard cake (hopefully with the giveaway prize, as that would be the greatest thing ever to help get me started on my own). I recently saw your video for doing that technique, and it was like a light-bulb went off! Here I thought you needed a special pan or something for it! Keep up all the great work you do, and I look forward to seeing your next videos. Happy Baking! 🙂

    I always thought that youtubers were some people talking to a camera(robots almost).
    But that day I looked different to you.
    And you proberly wont even read this or remember it, but i thought why not.
    But anyway back to the cake.
    Like i said a lifesize chocolate ganache (your recipe) with fresh strawberries.
    But if that not works i would make a youtube cake whit all your recipes in it. 🙂

    Ps i am not english so i translate a lot. 🙂

    August 31, 2014 at 8:22 pm

    Ahh that’s fantastic news! 500K Subscribers!

    That’s awesome you found a store with all of Wilton’s products! It’s would be a CandyWonderland for me aha

    If I won this Giveaway:

    Firstly, I would use all the cupcake paper cups and practice fondant flowers and chocolate trees to represent the seasons. Confect/Large sugar crystals to represent the snow, so we’d dip the chocolate trees in. Spring would be small piped buds and flowers. I think I’d have to make a parchment cone for the small details. Summer would be either using a piping tip to pipe out the green leaves in icing or use small pieces of fondant to represent the trees (or Chocolate, just for more practice handling it) And lastly, for Fall, the pieces of chocolate that would represent Autumn leaves would be: Lil swipes of chocolate mixed with different colors: Red Orange Yellow. Then we’d stick the bits of chocolate to the choco. tree.
    With all these great tools, I’d love to start this year(I always start it from Sept, b/c of school) I want to go crazy in baking ☆*:.。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆ !!

    And that fondant roller. I’ve never used one. I hope it’ll be better than my expectations. I was always skeptical about it. If I won it, It would be the first time I used a fondant roller!

    Next those large circular cake pans; I would finally have a chance to make a 3tier cake for my friends birthday! And much more!
    ahah and finallly finally, I would so excited to use the cake turner when piping any cake.

    CONGRATS and May this year be more adventurous in both our lovely Baking Hobbies!
    Cheers

    Once you subscribe to a channel, youtube doesn’t show how many subscribers they have unless you visit their about page. I just knew you were well over 500k subscribers by now!!!! People are missing out on the BEST step by step baker youtube has to offer!!! Anywho, as far as the contest goes I would make my mother a birthday cake (Nov 3 is her birthday) that she requested to be lemon flavored with green frosting, tiered with different color lollipops on each tier!! I don’t know how that’s going to happen because like I have told her before Jen hasn’t made that yet and what she hasn’t made I’m not willing to venture out and do!!! LOL!!! I have made 2 of your cakes already. The American 4th of july cake and the oreo cake, which most of my family believe was store bought because it was “perfect” in their eyes, but ok in mind since I have seen your perfection!!! 🙂 I will also be making the Candyland cake for my daugters’ 5th birthday party in December! So I would do a lot of things with these supplies!!! Thanks for reading my long response!!!!

    Since I just moved in with my boyfriend and im just starting living on my own, not much to focusing on buying bake ware at the moment haha. I love to bake. Every time when my mom bake something I always wanted to do it. Love it better than cooking haha. What i would do is a gothic wedding cake with the bake ware in this contest. The cake will be red velvet and strawberry frosting, black fondant, with black and purple flower frosting over the cake. Cupcakes would be flowers as well. I would so have this cake at my wedding.

  39. Timo says
    August 31, 2014 at 8:20 pm

    Hey Jenn! I am Timo and I come from Germany. When I sarted trying out baking and decorating I didn’t have enough “tools” to bake the cakes I saw in your videos. My first experience was the rainbow cake. It was hard to find the colours on the internet. In Germany we don’t bake cakes with colours. That’s why no supermarket offers them. Congratulations to 500000 subscribers! I don’t know why but your videos make me happy. I always speak out your first sentence of the video. I would like to win this giveaway because I could do so many more things with your baking tools. Sorry for all my English mistakes. But it would mean a lot for me.

    • Timo says
      August 31, 2014 at 8:24 pm

      Sorry, I forgot the real question…I would bake an Oreo cake. That’s what my family would like most! Of course with 3 layers and fondant at the outside 😉

    Congrats on your 500k subscribers. I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!! I recently turned 14 and have a great interest in baking but never have the right things since its difficult to find things in the area I live in. If I were to win I would make a 3 tier pinata cake with different surprises in each layer which will probably be for my little brother and sister’s birthday

  42. Eli says
    August 31, 2014 at 8:20 pm

    Hi Jenn !! Or maybe Bonjour Jenn from Paris ! So excited that your channel reachs that level of 500k subscribers (it is now over 523k !!) I will be thrilled to get one of this kit, or any Wilton stuff because wilton is not sold in France … However i think i would make my first 3 tiers cake, that i’ve been thinking of for a long time now. I would decorate it with homemade sugar butterflies and flowers. I am currently 16 years, so i might made it for a Back to school party with friends and/or family. Because of my age i am not really able to cook as much as i want, but your video really helped me to get into it, and to discover how easy that is !! Thank you for your time and advices !!
    From Paris and with love Mélanie
    Bises

  48. Grace Lee says
    August 31, 2014 at 8:18 pm

    The first cake I would make would be a layer cake, with different sized layers and I would decorate it by 2 halves of down the middle. One half would be the “dark” or “evil” side, dark chocolate, with lots of different decorations to represent this, such as thorns made out of chocolate, dark flowers, and different kinds of fruit such as blackberries and blueberries. On the other half, I would do this as the “light” or “good” side, with white chocolate ganache, and white roses.

    Thanks so much for inspiring me to bake! Lots of love from Ireland 🙂
