I love this cupcake toolbox! It holds everything I need, all my food coloring, frosting tips, piping bags, cupcake cups, candles, reciepes and sprinkles. Before I was given I my tips were scattered around the kitchen drawers and every time I went to frost it was a scavenger hunt to find the one I needed. Thanks to my amazing mother in law I now have cupcake box and I am organized!
These are my go to cupcakes. Whenever we have extra carrots instead of making a salad to use it up I think of these. These make the perfect breakfast after being chilled in the fridge overnight. 
So when I go a text saying that the committee I am on volunteered me to make 80 cake pops, not just regular cake pops but ones that look like pigs. I was mad. I make cupcakes NOT cake pops. I told them that I would try but there is no promises... and everyone I talked to assured me that they were easy to make (but not one of them have ever made them before). So where did I turn? You tube and the dessert decorating blog. They make it look super easy so I figured I could do it.
After I bought all the supplies I went to work. The worst thing about them is how time consuming they are. After you cook the cake you have to let it cool. After it cools I put it in the food processor and made it into crumbs and added a 1/3 cup of frosting and mush it together. I formed it into balls and stuck it in the fridge overnight. The next morning I heated up the chocolate in the Wilton chocolate melter my mother in law gave me! I learned not to use too hot of chocolate because it changes the color of it when it cools and also adds white dots on it. Then I added the decorations, the m & m's and sprinkle ears while the chocolate was still soft. Once it hardened I drew the face on. Some of them turned out and some didn't.
