A Great Find

I was recently doing a little shopping when I came across this cute cupcake container.  What a great find!  I just had to buy one for Abigail.

This CupCake To-Go container is absolutely perfect for a child with a food allergy, food intolerance or Celiac.  For 6 years now, I've sent cupcakes with Abigail to almost every peer birthday party she has attended.  Most of the time in containers either too small for the cupcake resulting in mushed frosty or too large also resulting in a rather messy cupcake from all that bouncing around.  Now, she can take her "special" cupcake and take pleasure in eating it because 1. it's no longer unsightly, and 2. it came out of such a adorable container. 

Abigail, of course, loved it.  I knew she would.  I went back to the store and bought more just in case you guys loved them and also wanted one too.  I bought them in 3 different colors: pink, white and blue. They're about 4" x 4", the perfect size to hold a large cupcake or even muffin.  The lid twists on/off and there are interior side anchors to keep the cupcake in place (assuming your child doesn't drop it and send it bouncing).  My resell price is $5.00, and I still have to figure out actual shipping cost.  If you want one, send me an e-mail at peanutallergyfree@gmail.com, and I'll let you know what that cost is once I've packed it in a shipping box.  I use PayPal for billing, and I don't ship outside the U.S.

This cupcake container just makes me happy.  It's so hard to see your child or loved one have to struggle with something like not being able to eat a piece of their friend's birthday cake.  It makes me happy because it's a simple object that makes a huge difference.  If you've got to be different and made to stand out in a crowd, you might as well do it with style!
