Sweet Surprise: Red Velvet Cuppie Truffles from Bakerella!
Tuesday, September 30, 2008 
Today we received a sweet and completely unexpected gift in the mail from our favorite domestic goddess, Bakerella: mouthwatering red velvet cake truffles...decorated to look like our own Cakespy mascot, L'il Cuppie! Seems that Mlle. Bakerella must have enjoyed her Iron Cupcake prize, a custom piece depicting her exciting segment a few months ago on the Martha Stewart Show:
This little Cuppie made a big mess...
This little Cuppie learned to draw...
This little Cuppie went for the good stuff...
This little Cuppie liked what he saw...
This little Cuppie found Jesus...
This little Cuppie met some pigs...
This little Cuppie saw the Space Needle (but got a little melted by the sun)...
This little Cuppie does not like skinny chicks...
This little Cuppie got worried...and uh-oh, we haven't seen him since.
This little Cuppie got greedy...and ended up all alone.
Of course you also might like to see her sweet review of our friendship and the project here!

This is beyond adorable. Kudos to Bakerella for the lil cuppie creations and I LOVE all the trouble they've gotten in. My favorite, however, is the one who hates skinny chicks-- way to show the curvy girl love.

Mandy: Yup, fancy that--you went to HS with Mr. Cakespy!!
Kyla: They were packed in boxes with the truffles close together so they didn't shift, with tissue paper topping them and keeping them in the box. Then, that inner box had a generous roll of bubble wrap around it and it was all within a bigger box. A lot of packaging but then again shipping foodstuffs is an art!
Louise: Yay! Thank you! It looks so great!

Aww, very cute cuppies! :)
Jessie, you made my day again, and the cuppie that found Jesus was priceless! I love the expressions. Reminds me a little of Oh No, Mr Bill! I did a similar "photo shoot" with my Willy the Eggplant. At least you got to eat the cuppies. Mr. Willy rotted from the inside out!
BRAVO!
You can't eat these little cuppies! Let them live and travel some more!
(hope that last one was really a cannibal...)
