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!

    Hi Jenn,
    I would make a chocolate cake with three layers: chocolate orange, chocolate coffee, and chocolate hazelnut. Then I would frost the layers with brown colours going lighter each layer. And then I would finish up with red roses on the outside. I love your channel! Hope I win! Greets Judith <3

    Congrats on 500k! Now imagine sticking all of those people on one room, so many fans!

    What I would do if I won is I would make some birthday treats. I am a college student and what I want to start this year is to make something special for all my friends. Just because you aren’t home for your birthday doesn’t mean you don’t deserve a nice homemade cake!

    Hi Jenn, Many congrats for your 500k subscribers. I have been watching your videos since like a year. If i win your giveaway the first thing i would do would be your strawberry cake recipe for my dad’s birthday or your cupcakes flower bouquet for my mom.

    Congrats Jen how wonderful I know you are excited. I will make a beautiful cake for myself just to say I’m special too! I have the next Birthday coming up and that is why. Again congratulation!

    Hey Jenn, I’ve been following for so long! You’ve helped me a lot with all my baking! I’ve done a few crazy cakes, like lego bricks, tea party, a book, hamburger cupcakes, etc., I also did your chocolate truffles, they were a hit, I’m looking forward to make more of your recepies and cake ideas!
    I’ve been baking for about 2 years now (I’m turning 19 this month!) But I don’t have a lot of money so I don’t have a lot of baking utensils and here in Argentina they are very expensive.
    The first thing I would do is probably a big 3D cake, or a nice wedding cake just for fun (I guess I’m gonna have cake for about a month if I do that), I could make something big and amazing for christmas and even start selling my cakes! I’m at uni, in 3 years I’ll be a math teacher, but studying is not cheap, and I would love to make my cakes into money. It makes a lot of fun doing them, I can clear my head while making some cakes…
    I’d be so happy if this kit was mine….

    Hi all at cookies, cupcakes and cardio,
    First of i want to congratulate you on hitting 500k subscribers, that’s just awesome! I am entering this contest as a keen young baker who is inspired by your wonderful creations every week. Being only 16 and not having any formal training, I enjoy watching baking videos in my spare time to learn and pick up a few tips and tricks. If I were to win this prize, I would make the rainbow cake you made back in 2013 for my sisters 11th birthday. She always gets me to make her cake and this year has requested an ombre effect with the icing. In your video you make the ombre technique looks so simple and easy ( i thought it was really tricky). It would really be great to win. Good job on getting so many subscribers, and heres to 500k more.
    Lilly

    Hey! Firstly congrats on your 500,000 subscribers!
    So, my sister is having her wedding soon so with that equipment I would make her wedding cake with it. I would use the cake pans to make a 3 tier cake and use the food colourings to make an ombré cake which would be decorated with the tips and I would make fondant roses to decorate the whole thing with.
    I love your videos and look forward to watching more of them!

    September 2, 2014 at 9:06 pm

    First thing I would do a cake/cupcake cake. The kinds that the top teir is a cake and then the other tiers are cupcakes. I would really do a peacock theme because If I had those tips it would be so much fun! I would also make some sweets to take to some people that can’t bake or make these sweets for themselves! That’s what I do now but I think I could make them better with these tools!

    Congratulations on your 500k followers on YouTube
    Baking is something you have to be passionate about its also something that takes time to perfect I love cook shows and to watch how to bake cakes and see them being decorated my nan taught me how to bake from when I was 4 sadly she passed when I was 10 we were so close and this was the special thing we did together and I hope one day I could just at least be half the baker she was
    I know we had to write what would we use all the equipment for I would make heaven a light vanilla sponge with all different types of butter cream mint for the green grass marshmallow or almond extract for the clouds I would carve my nan out of chocolate and make fondant flowers and meadows me and my nan lying on the meadows it will be us together on last time I know it’s only a cake but it would be a 4 tier memory of her life and how it’s so hard to live with out her

    Hello, my name is Zoe. I am currently in a culinary arts class studying baking and pastry. I love baking and I want to do some out of my home. I am 17 and still in high school. I do not have a job and am un able to buy things like this to bake. I have had people ask me to make large cakes but I can’t do to the lack of materials. If I won this contest I would use these to start my baking business out of home in hopes that it would be a start to bigger things.

I really love your creativity and passion for baking! i am 14 and at this age i have the greatest passion for baking and cooking! I hope to someday become a profound executive chef or professional baker. What i would do with this grand prize is obviously bake a cake but i would try to exceed my levels and attempt to bake a three tear cake for my parents because they are always saying how if i want to be an executive chef or professional baker to do it right so i would make the best cake and present it to them to show how i can reach what i strive for and will one day actually be something big! to prove not only them wrong but to show myself that i can achieve what ever i set my mind to! Thank you for this opportunity

    Hello, Congrats on 500 k subs! I love your channel and all of your ideas are so unique! I absolutely love baking. I currently attend college for business management, but will go to culinary school after in hopes of having my own bakery. I recently started baking cakes for my family such as a hulk cake, a 2 tier ninja turtles cake, and a Minecraft cake. So if I were to win this amazing package I would make a deep dish pizza cake for my brothers birthday or even a wedding shower cake for my cousin! This would help me get a good start to a collection of baking equipment so I can make bigger and better cakes for my family and others. Thank you so much for the amazing opportunity to win this package!

    I love watching your videos for inspiration. All of your work is so well done and fun to watch. I would probably make a Halloween/fall themed cake because it is my favorite holiday and fall is coming up. I worked as a pastry chef for 5 years and I have just started doing custom cakes and cupcakes for fun. I definitely could us all of these things to help bolster my cake skills because they are a little rough right now. Thanks for being so awesome!!!!
