Awesome Wilton Giveaway!

Over the last several years, cooking, baking, recipes and really anything to do with food have become a real passion for me. What started with me as a new wife learning to cook for my family has branched off into many fun and creative areas of food preparation. One of my first forays into the artistic side of food was cake decorating…and through cake decorating I was introduced to Wilton.

I took the Wilton cake decorating courses 1 and 2 not too long ago and just loved them. They were so much fun and really taught me a lot about making cakes. And so I’ve taken every cake-making opportunity that’s come my way since. Birthdays, holidays, picnics, church gatherings…anything to try something new and make a new cake creation. As I’ve gotten more experienced, I’ve picked up quite a few toys and tools along the way, most of which were Wilton brand.

Wilton make affordable, quality products, and it seems they’ve got something for everything you might need when baking. Or even making Bentos, as you’ve seen quite a bit of on my blog. So when I wanted to do another giveaway, I was thrilled when Wilton agreed to be my sponsor.  They have sent me a fantastic package of goodies (list below) that you, my lovely readers, will now have the chance to win.  Over the next week I’ll be featuring many of these goodies in my posts, so make sure you tune in. At the end of the week, I’ll announce the winner, and that person will receive an identical package direct from Wilton!

Here’s the list:

Mini Rounds Silicone Moulds (a perfect color for fall Muffin Tin Mondays!)

Silly-Critters! Silicone Baking Cups (how fun are these! Can't wait to use them)

Checkerboard Cake Set

Easy Flex Silicone Baking Cups (I have always wanted a red and blue set. I think these will be good for the upcoming circus-theme Muffin Tin Monday)

Big Top Cupcake Wraps and Pix (perfect for a circus theme)

Cupcake Fun Magazine

Fondant People Cut Outs (I plan on using these in my bentos!)

Jumbo Leaves Sprinkles

Leaf Shaped Fondant Cut Outs

How to enter: visit Wilton’s fabulous site (full of recipes and tips worth checking out!), then come back here and tell me which of their products is your favorite or that you want to get. That simple!

Congratulations. 

Lunch Box Giveaway!

I don’t know about you, but all my Tupperware containers come at me like an avalanche whenever I open the cupboard door. It’s a real nightmare trying to keep them tidy and neat! So many times I find myself searching for the right containers when making lunches and then worse, trying to find the runaway lid for that container. It's almost impossible! Easy lunch boxes really helped solved this problem for me. There are three compartments in each container with one single lid – eliminating the clutter! The large compartment easily holds a sandwich or wrap and the two smaller ones are great for fruit/veg/crackers. (You can see one of Willow's lunches using this lunchbox in my previous post.) It really makes things easier and quicker in the morning. Lunches could even be packed the night before and left in the refrigerator overnight to grab on the go.

Look how nicely these boxes nest together for easy storing. 

Other things I like about the lunch box system include:

It was created by a mom, who better?

It's safe for refrigerator, freezer, microwave and dishwasher

Eco friendly

The compartments sizes are great for kid's lunches but also suitable for adults

Easy to clean, not to mention LESS containers to clean!

The insulated lunch bag coolers are available in five friendly colors: black, dark red, aqua, olive, purple. And can be personalized to attach a name tag or charm!

BPA free

And best of all for me, I don’t have to hope my husband remembers to bring the container home that very day (which he rarely ever does!) so I can wash it in time for the next day because this set comes with 4 lunch boxes so I always have one on hand.

It gets better ....
