100th Video Contest!
November 12, 2012 by
I am super excited to announce that we have reached ONE HUNDRED videos on our YouTube channel, CupcakesandCardio! I can hardly believe that we have worked this hard, and reached this milestone.
We are successfully running a cake/cupcake company focusing on custom orders, weddings and Farmer’s Markets, while I continue to teach full time Kindergarten (and occasionally update my blog)! It is taking a lot of hard work, long hours, but with our YouTube channel being instructional, I feel it is a natural jump from my day to day job. Reading and hearing from the viewers and fans is awesome, and makes it worthwhile!
Some of my favourite comments have been from the younger crowd who say that they are using the videos to bake with their mom/dad and that makes me super happy as that is how my roots in baking began. My personal favourite videos that we have done over the last 100, was the one with my mom when we baked a recipe of my Grandma’s Chocolate Dream Bars , and the one that we did as a surprise for Payten, Birthday Cake Surprise!
If you would like to enter the contest, head on over to our channel, and leave your comment which video is your favourite! The winner will be chosen on November 30, 2012, at random! If you leave a video response, you get a double entry.
Thank you to all of our viewers for making the hard work worthwhile!!

Easter Cupcakes- Easter Nest How To
March 22, 2012 by
Easter is coming up quickly around the corner . . . why is it so early this year? Or is that just me thinking that it’s early? Regardless of when I “think” it’s supposed to happen, the Easter bunny has puked into the aisles of the local stores, and the Cadbury Cream Eggs are flying off the shelves!
I actually happen to love Easter . . . well, duh, who wouldn’t love a holiday where CHOCOLATE comes to town? Four days off, endless supplies of chocolate and a delicious ham dinner cooked by my Mom . . . BEST holiday ever!
To add to the Easter excitement in Cranbrook (and everywhere!), we have created a video that is a How-To video based on a cupcake design that we released last year for our 2011 Easter celebrations. If you are a beginning decorator, you will find this video completely within your comfort range!
