Wilton Cupcake Starter Kit Review and Giveaway!!




Cupcakes are so popular right now, and it is so hard to pass on them at gatherings!  So when I read a couple of yummy cupcake recipes and tricks on Weight Watchers, I saw that I could eat a scrumptious cupcake for only 3 points, I was thrilled! So of course, my first stop was to Wilton's Website! When you think of delicious and fun desserts, they are always the brand that comes to mind!

First Impression: When I received my package from Wilton's I was very excited!  I received a beautiful and sturdy thirteen cupcake stand


a 12 piece cupcake decorating kit:
 and of course, the baking pan!

Style/Choices:  Wilton's Website has some beautiful decorating ideas and so many things to choose from for every occasion!  For instance, my husband wants to have everyone over for a football game next month and I bookmarked these goodies!














Most of my friends can tell you that I love Halloween!  In fact I try to plan as many Halloween type events as possible during the glorious month of October.  How about these to spice up a ghouly party?
















Functionality: These ideas are great, right?  But can you really do them yourself?  Well, now you can! Wilton's Website not only has great ideas, but great step by step instructions on how to do them as well! 

How it Promotes a Healthy Lifestyle:  Ok my beautiful dieting compadres, please stop giving me the evil stares.  I swear I am not helping the devil on your shoulder by enticing you to forget the health food and exercise and jump into a batter of caloric decadence!  First off, Weight Watchers has some great cupcake recipes, for instance here is a yummy red velvet cupcake one:

Not up for all of that hard work?  Go to the grocery store and get a mix, just replace the oil with applesauce!  Now your perfect portion sized cupcake is only a whopping three point indulgence!!  So get your Wilton's goodies, use applesauce instead of oil or a healthier recipe, and partake in a yummy guilt free dessert!

Cost Effective: From what I have seen you are getting great quality baking pans, decorating kits, etc.. from Wilton's for a very good price.  The only thing that can get expensive are the ingredients from your local grocery store.

Pros: 
  • Amazingly beautiful ways to decorate
  • Can be used for every occasion
  • Healthier alternatives
  • Perfect portion size

Cons:
  • You "should" only eat just one!
BUY IT: Go to Wilton's web page. 

WIN IT:  One of my lucky readers will win the same amazing Wilton's cupcake starter kit that I got!  Which includes the 13 cupcake stand, 12 piece decorating kit, and the cupcake baking tin!

Mandatory Entry: (you must be a public follower and leave me a way to contact you) US and Canadian residents only

I love the entire halloween series, but given time constraints and what the very young would like the most, I'd probably go with the pumpkin heads
