CUPCAKE MAKER

eddyandme — Sun, 11 Mar 2018 00:05:31 GMT

I ordered a cupcake maker from HSN on the 4th. It's a full-size (12) cupcake maker. Shipping was $3.00, I'm guessing, weighing 8lbs. I received it this afternoon. Also got 2% from Ebates.

I'm very pleased with the shipping time and charges. Very pleased and wanted to share a positive experience.

I almost ordered that. Please let us know when you use it, I'm curious.

@Annabellethecat66. just perused the recipe book - YUM! There's even a recipe for a pizza cupcake made with store-bought pizza dough, corn dog cupcakes, pb and choc muffins, banana crumb muffins and eleven other cupcake recipes, along with three frosting recipes. Supposedly takes 7-10 minutes - that's what got me, along with the good reviews.

I'l certainly let you know how it works. (You could be the head cupcake maker at Fairview! he,he!)

Thanx, @hellodali. I haven't heard of that one but will certainly look into it!

I'm puzzled about this. What's better about it than a cupcake pan and the oven?

It takes less time to heat up and bakes cupcakes in 7-10min; and just wipe off with damp cloth to clean the nonstick surface.

Aside from being time-saving, saves electricity - it's like warming up an electric skillet compared to an electric oven.

Less electricity and less heat in the kitchen on a hot summer day?

@GSPgirl

Didn't think about the heat on a hot summer day - that is another great reason! Right now we're getting ready for a third snowstorm in less than two weeks so that wasn't on my mind, but it will be during the hot, humid weather - for sure!

I saw that, not on HSN. I saw it in a catalog and I thought of buying one. But I quickly backed away from that idea; I don't need anything that will make it easier or me to bake cupcakes and muffins. I'm not going down that slippery slope.

Glad you love it. Sounds like theres some nifty cakes to try. Gotta say though, I laughed when I read the title as my first thought was: There's a grown-up Easy Bake Oven?

Have fun and enjoy!

I know what you mean, @chrystaltree!

I d/n like to bake pies or cakes 'cause it's just me. So if I pick something up, it's eventually tossed out after I've overindulged. Planning on freezing most of the cupcakes when I make a batch. I'll use canned frosting, refrigerate, then frost as I go. So, hopefully, won't go down that slippery slope!

This is darling! I only make cupcakes four times a year and certainly don’t need to make it easier but I’d probably use it for muffins. Can’t wait to hear how they turn out @eddyandme.

@GSPgirl I guess I worry less about these issues than storing something else! LOL!!

Yes, @Topaz Gem. It's 514589 and is available in black or mint. I got the mint and it's a true mint green.

Topaz Gem — Mon, 12 Mar 2018 17:03:46 GMT

Goldenlocks, thanks for your quick response! I did a search, but it didn't come up. Probably because I searched for 'cupcake BAKER' instead of 'cupcake MAKER'. 😊

@Topaz Gem

Just type that number on HSN's front page and it''ll come up right away. Mint is the only color remaining now, but it's still on four ez pays - I just checked as I wanted to make sure I gave you the correct item number.

When I pulled it up, 4.4 rating: all but one are top ratings!
