Thanks to the sturdy and stylish Cupcake Courier, bakers and connoisseurs alike can transport their sweet treats without losing a single sprinkle. The carriers hold up to 36 cupcakes each, or its three trays can be removed to create a full-sized Cake Courier. [via The Brooklyn Kitchen] Related: How to Eat Cupcakes...

KitchenMaus over at Al Dente combined your regular joe cake with the birthday staple of cupcakes by baking this giant cupcake for her son's first birthday. In her test run, she originally frosted just the top, like any regular ol' cupcake, but as she says, "Who wants half the cake to have no frosting?! Is there even a point?" (Right on.) Which is how she arrived at this frosting-laden cake, complete with Necco wafers and a jumbo birthday candle.

But maybe frosting shots could fix that? She makes them look even more enticing with this impressive lime backdrop....

Brass knuckles don't seem like the right topic for Serious Eats. But cupcake knuckles? Yes, please. There's not enough cupcake tats out there on otherwise bland fingers, which is why we love this framed cross-stitch, available on Etsy by seller citydown.
