The next “big thing”

May2

GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED!

*******************************************************************************

And the winners are……….

If you are one of the winners, please email me at tara@theshakybaker.com with your mailing address so I can get these mailed out to you!

I will keep checking my stores for more.  If I find more, I’ll share those, too.  =)

Thank you to everyone who left a comment!  Hope your weekend is sweet!

*******************************************************************************

So, did you know that these are the new rage in cookie decorating?

Thanks to Callye at Sweet SugarBelle they are.

These babies make the best icing bag holders.  The BEST.  And for $1, you can’t beat the price.  (Sorry, Wilton).

Problem is, they seem to be selling out everywhere before bakers can buy them.  But lucky for you guys, I live in a small town where people here don’t know the wonders of the $1 popcycle maker.  So I went down today and cleaned out the shelf.  Bought every one they had.  The cashier thought I’d lost my mind.  If only she knew how right she was.

Now, I need to share them with you.  Want one?

I am going to send 2 packs to four (4) different people.  INTERNATIONAL INCLUDED!!  If you want them, just leave a comment ON THIS POST.  I will randomly select four people to win.  Simple as that.

But ya gotta act fast. I’m going to mail them out this Friday, so I’m only leaving it open until Thursday, May 3rd (yes, tomorrow!) until 9pm CST.  Then I will draw 4 winners and drop them in the mail.  I have to act fast, because you really need these.  Your cookies could depend on it.

Make sure you leave contact information so I can get in touch with you if you win!

Good luck!  And I hope the rest of your week is sweet!

  19. Leave it to Callye to think of this. So simple! I would love to have these. And when I’m not decorating, my 2 and 3 year old boys could benefit from the actual purpose (well, so would I — who am I kidding, I love a popsicle as much as the next toddler)

  39. OOOH! What a fantastic idea!!! I always have icing all over my counter from leaking out of the bag! I haven’t seen these anywhere in Vegas, but then again I haven’t really looked.

  59. I could definately use a couple of those nice round popsicle makers. I check my dollar store and they only had odd shaped ones and they were too small! Love the blog btw!

  62. They have been disappearing rapidly from the shelves in the south… Probably not for icing bag holders considering the temperature has been in the 90’s the past week.

  66. Just what I need for my 40th birthday!!! Multiple possibilities here; before they hit my cake table I could see these with some frozen vodka and orange. I’ll feel all girly and reminiscent, and most importantly COMPLETELY distracted from the ‘numbers’ on the day!!

  70. I have seen them in the store and never thought of them for decorating use. That is thinking outside the box (or the icing rack)! Great idea!

  141. I’ve been looking for those, can’t seem to find any anywhere. Great idea and its quick and easy to use.

  142. Hello; Yes same story here in Windsor Ont Canada as well. Unable to locate them anywhere. I do see different styles but not useable for my piping bags. I have loved the idea ever since I saw Sugarbelle use them. I am always looking for new ideas from the great cookie decorators I follow and aspire to be. That is very nice of you to offer this great prize. Thanks you.
