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!

    The first thing I would use this set for if I won would be my daughter’s second birthday cake. I’ve wanted my own set of cake decorating stuff for a long time now, but haven’t been able to get one. I love baking pretty much anything, and your channel has taught me so much.

    Hello,

    Congratulations on ur youtube chanel success !
    I recently came across your chanel and love it. Iv always had an interest in baking ever since i was little. No one in my family bakes so i have never had anyone to teach me till i found ur page. I would love to make a fantastic creation ( zebra cake ) to show my family my talent, but i have never had the correct equipment to produce anything even remotely good 🙁

    Thanks for reading my comment 🙂

    I’d make a chocolate cake with whipped white chocolate ganache between layers because everybody loves chocolate 😉 I’ve never tried fondant, so I’d probably give it a clean finish by covering the cake with white fondant, brush on some edible glitter and end off with sugar decorations.

    Hello my name is Linda and I would like to win this give away prizes for my little sister. I remember the first time I saw one of your cake video was so I could learn how to make a cake for my mom’s birthday. My little sister helped me bake it and she was so intrigued by your videos that I subscribed to your channel. You and other YouTuber’s have even inspired her to go to school for culinary arts (even though thats a couple of years sway). She would love to get these prizes to continue practicing her decorating skills. Even if I dont win I still got to share my story.

Your so kind to do this giveaway I would have thought u have reached 1 million subscribers now with the brilliant ideas and time you put into your amazing bakes and I always recommend your channel to all of my friends and family. My parents would never let me buy expensive cooking equipment and all I do is bake bake bake. I would love all of this equipment because my uncle got divorced a few months ago and now lives by and himself and whenever I see him is always upset but he has happily found a new wife and will soon be having a wedding so I would love to make him a rainbow layered wedding cake and use your tutorial to help me!

    Hi Jen!

    I started baking at a young age, rainy days with my Grandma were usually spent in the kitchen where she would teach me how to make basic things like cookies. If I was really lucky she would teach me how to make one of my Great Grandmothers old recipes for an old fashion dessert or even one of her own favorite homemade treats. Years have flown and now I’m older and my Grandma is too, she’s now retired and doing her all to enjoy the few years she knows she has left. Growing up, and baking with my Grandma she always said one thing in particular that I will never forget. She said ‘It’s not the finished product that matters, it’s the memory you created making it with’. & She always taught me that ‘Don’t embrace everything to yourself, there’s always someone out there who could use a smile too’. If I won this kit, I wouldn’t keep it to myself, I would use it to make things for other people before myself. I would visit the retirement home she is in now, and I would prove to her that her lessons taught me well, and that I will continue creating memories and sharing smiles even when God takes her away from me. It would make me happy. and many other people that could use a smile. Your videos are amazing, and I’ve learned a lot from you. Thank you for taking the time to do them!

    Chelsea.
