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!

    Watching your videos inspired me to back and I love baking; but I don’t have everything I need in order to make and or decorate a cake. It would be great if I could win because my father and sisters birthday are coming up, and I want to make them a cake representing their personality and things they like. It would also be my gift to them as well. Congratulations on 500k!!

    Hey, Jenn! I’m a 13 year old girl who loves baking, but doesn’t have very many tools to do so! 🙂 I would use the items to bake a birthday cake for my mom, whose birthday is in October. She loves fall so I would make a pumpkin cake with vanilla buttercream, and I would try to do it myself! 🙂 She always does so much for me and I think that this would be an awesome opportunity to show her how much I care! I also would bake something for my little sister’s birthday, in November… she is a hardcore chocohalic 🙂 maybe even three tiers!
    Happy baking, and congrats on half a million! 😉

    I would make my family’s famous cannoli cake for my moms 50th surprise birthday bash. I love your videos. They have helped me as a 15 year old baker. Thanks to you helping me expand my baking talents I have gotten through rough and good times baking. Baking is a calming thing for me now and I can do it and not think I will fail. Thanks for teaching me sooo much about baking 🙂 I hope you never stop your videos they always bring joy to me and my family when I watch it and then bake them what ever I just learned. 🙂

    Hi – congrats on 500K subscribers and it’s really cool of you to run a give-away. My grandfather’s 90th birthday is coming up in October and it would be great to make a special cake for that using all those awesome supplies. Baking is my hobby and I’m sure I could come up with heaps of other yummy things to make should I win, especially in the lead up to Christmas.

    Congratulations! I’m excited about the giveaway and what I would definitely make would be a anniversary cake. It will be my 15th anniversary on 10/14/2015 and I don’t remember what my wedding cake looked like. My brother in law is a photographer and he was supposed to take pictures of the wedding. He got drunk and guess what? NO wedding pics!!!! So I would make a wedding cake for my 15th anniversary and who knows, we might end up renewing our vows. Wish me luck!

    Hola, lo primero que me gustaría hacer es un pastel a mi hijo, obviamente practicando una de sus recetas. También los utensilios serian de gran utilidad, ya que estoy comenzando un negocio de pasteles casero, ya he comenzado a tener pedidos en el trabajo, para un cumpleaños y para aniversarios de bodas; mis hija elaboran galletas y cup cakes, con eso se ayudan para pagar su gimnasio y algunas cosas de su escuela; entonces si ganáramos pues no solo me seria de utilidad, seria útil para toda mi familia.

    Gracias y saludos desde México.

    My name is Blair and I love your YouTube channel! You have the most amazing baking segments. If I won, I would want to try several of your projects. I would love to make the rainbow cake. The beautiful layers and bright icing is AMAZING. I would also like to try several other post you have done. I know with the right tools, it will be perfect! Thank you! Fingers crossed I win!

    September 1, 2014 at 3:42 am

    Hi Jenn, I’m Catherine and I’m 19 years old. I’m from Australia and I’ve been watching your videos for over a year now! Baking is one of my hobbies (even though I don’t get to do it much, because of full-time University and 3 jobs!) So I watch your videos and they scrape me through not physically baking!

    Your videos have come such a long way, I love literally everything you make (hahaha same likes much? :P)

    I think if I won, the first thing I would make, to start it off easy, is your Nutella & Oreo Cheesecake. In your video, it looks so good! (and who can go past Nutella??) Then I would probably go and make the Frozen cake (I know right?!), Ferrero Rocher & Nutella Cupcakes, and of course the Butterfly Cake! 🙂

    Also, congrats on 500k! I hope you reach 1 million very soon! 😀 xxx

Its really exciting and I think the four pans would be super helpful! For practicing what I learn in the class in October!

    September 1, 2014 at 3:37 am

    Hey jenn. So I just typed a really long paragraph and then it got deleted but I am going to retune it because I want this price so so so bad! So anyway, I was so excited when I swa this video because I really really beds some more baking supplies because they are so expensive and I don’t have enught money to pay for everything I need! But I am 12 years old and I have been baking for a few years now and I can’t believe these prizes! They are so so so exciting! So a little background on my baking “career”! I love to bake and I always do it and I make everything from scrambled eggs to 6 layered cakes. I actually made your rainbow 6 layer cake for my birthday party! I got so many compliments on it! Also I would really like to go to college for it! I can also promise you that I will use these things until they are falling abet at the seems! I realize there are so many people and I may not get this but inbound really really appreciate it and I eould not be able to thank you enough! Thanks!

    Congrats on 500k subscribers! You’re channel is so spectacular. I’m 15 and I came to your channel when a friend recommended me to watch you a few months ago. You have had so many cool dessert ideas, my favorite Being the melted snowman s’mores from last Christmas since they were super simple but extra scrumptious. Before I start to babble, if I won I would make an extravagant Birthday cake for my little brother’s birthday that’s coming up in early October just because I’ve always wanted to make him an awesome cake but never had the right supplies but even if I don’t win I’ll always have your channel for dessert inspiration!

    Excelente idea, motivante.

    Congrats on Hitting 500k subscribers! I so happy for you! Anyways this giveaway would be amazing to win! I’m pretty young,14, don’t worry I have my parents permission to join, but I have a passion for baking and I love to do it on my free time. Since I’m pretty young, I don’t really have all of the supplies I make an amazing cake and that’s why it would be amazing to win your giveaway. Anyways I love you and all of your recipes, they’re delicious! Thank you so much for this opportunity!
