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! I discovered your channel while surfing YouTube late at night while nursing my newborn baby (she’s now 10 weeks old). Your videos have gotten me through many hours spent on the couch nursing and have given me lots of inspiration for the many birthday parties to come, thank you!
    If I won I would have a go at making your inside out rainbow cake. I’ve watched the video about four times but haven’t been brave enough to try making it.. Yet!

    This is incredible! I don’t know why I’m so excited over the revolving cake board. If I were to win I’m not sure what I’d bake, but I know for sure it would need crumb-coating because I’ve always wanted to crumb-coat a cake and never have!! Thanks Jenn your channel is amazing.
    Love Lydia, England x

    Hi my names Amy and I love your video’s. I always get excited when you make new videos which is kind of weird haha. If I was to win this kit I would make a cake for my mother for her birthday as I always tell her I love her but never really show it, and I think she would be proud of me to be able to make something almost as good as yours. Thank you for the opportunity to win

    Hello, thanks for doing the giveaway, it’s real nice of you! I’m 17 and I’ve been baking since I was around 12 or 13 and it is my absolute favorite thing to do! Anyway, with the kit you’re giving away, I think I would make a mock wedding cake, or even just a tiered cake.. I’ve never ever done stacked cakes before, but I’d REALLY love to try it out and work on my piping techniques, and get into fancier stuff, since right now I’m not the best with a frosting bag, lol. But yeah, thanks again for the giveaway! =)

    August 31, 2014 at 11:22 pm

    Hi, Cookies, Cupcakes and Cardio! My name is Ripley. I live in Canada and I’m absolutely obsessed with your channel. This channel has given me inspiration to start … As I would call it, “a mini baking company for family” basically meaning I take my knowledge that you have given me, to start baking all ranges of desserts for my family for any occasions. In my opinion, I’ve done quite we’ll for what little supplies I have. (I’m quite crafty in making interesting ways to do things) but I’m just here to tell you, out of all these wonderful amazing subscribers you have trying to win this contest, I think it would be a smart decision to pick me. If I were to win the supplies, I would most definitely make a very big cake and maybe try some new designs you have taught me. It would definitely be amazing to win all this awesome supplies and not be using crapy plastic bags for icing and a cutting board for a “turning table” and old pans for the cake. At the end of the day, if I’m not chosen, I’ll be definitely happy for the person you decide to chose. And again, I’m absolutely in love with your channel ❤️

    I would love to win this giveaway! My birthday is October 4th and this would be an amazing gift! I love baking so much, and if I won this giveaway, I’d bake everything I’d always wanted to: I’d make 3 tier cakes, birthday cakes, frosted cake/cupcakes and some of your recipes I couldn’t try without the tools. I wish I had all of these things in stores in UK, but it’s not so easy :(. I love baking and this would be amazing. Congratulations on 500,000+ also.

I can make so many things I can’t even list them all. There are so many things I wanted to make from your channel but I couldn’t because I didn’t have the supplies so if I won it would be a dream come true.

  25. Jessica De La Riva says

    August 31, 2014 at 11:16 pm

    Hey Jen, let me start off with congrats on 500,000 subscribers, and I hope for many more. I love this account so much. I love baking so much , like I dream of becoming a baker and being successful. I don’t know if you remember but im the girl who sent you questions for my school essay about career choosing. I’m 14 but I’ll be 15 by the time this contest is over, and baking has been a way to forget about any troubles going around me. I’m a person who loves to create. I just love the feeling of giving to others and putting a smile on their face. And to have proper baking tools would help, because when I go to the store with my mom there’s only a small section. I have so many ideas for cakes, but one I’ve been thinking about. I would make a cake fit for a fangirl like myself. I would have all of the fandoms I enjoy to watch on the cake, and draw details on the cake. I would also pipe the border with a seashell design. I’ll pipe on the cake the logos of Teen Wolf, Awkward, Degrassi, The Maze Runner… also some other youtube channels I enjoy. I don’t know if i can do all of that but I’ll keep trying until I get it right. Practice makes perfect. Thank you for all the work you and Paul put in your videos. xoxo

    OMG! I would absolutely love to win this baking set. I started baking about 3 years ago after taking some cake decorating classes at my local Michael’s store. I started building up my supplies but lost the majority of them after a hurricane that hit in my hometown two years ago. I’m currently a stay at home mom of a three month old baby boy and a 19 month old daughter. I’m trying to get back into baking to generate some income for my family without having to go back out into the workforce. So, what I would bake first if I got this set would probably be a rainbow cake and cupcakes with fondant toppers. I have been enjoying trying something different every week and this would really be some great tools to have to build my supplies back up.

  37. Betty says
    August 31, 2014 at 11:15 pm

    I would make a cake of tres leches or a layer cake

  38. Patti Flett says
    August 31, 2014 at 11:12 pm

    Jenn this is an amazingly generous of you! I would make a three layer cake with rainbow frosting maybe more the possibilities are endless! 🙂

  39. Maddy says
    August 31, 2014 at 11:12 pm

    Hi my name is Maddy and I’m 15 years old. I haven’t been baking since I was 4, I didn’t learn to bake from my gran and the first thing I would bake with the prizes would not be a cake for a family member. Resently I have been baking and selling cupcakes for charity as it is the summer holidays in the UK. I felt that there is so much going on In the world and all we do is watch the news and feel pity but we do very little in actually making a difference. I always thought that one day cake would change the world and it really can it just takes a little will power. We baked and sold out everyday and in 4 day we baked and sold over 400 cupcakes (£1000) and after that we were selling cupcakes on order. I know 400 cupcakes isn’t a huge amount but for me it was amazing after all I’m a hobby baker. So if i was to win the first thing I would do is bake a large cake for charity. One day I hope to own my own bakery (fingers crossed).
    I know I probably won’t win this but I’m a firm believer in giving things a go. Thanks for the opportunity xxx
