Valentine's Day giveaways! (Number 1.)

I have many giveaways planned for this week -- all Valentine's Day-related. I love doing giveaways, they are more work than regular posts but so much more fulfilling. I especially love hearing back from winners about their new prizes. In that light, I bring you...



An amazing giveaway from GreenPartyGoods.com.
Carole has generously made available to one winner, chosen at random,
the Eco-Cupcake stand of his or her choice, PLUS $25 in liners, cups or wraps. You can see what your options are here.

This offer is good for United States residents only (sorry).







I know these would be perfect for Valentine's Day (or any day) but they seem to be out of stock at the moment.

Personally, I'm crazy for the biodegradable baking cups!



Paisley!





Here are the Eco-Cupcake Stands:



I can't decide whether I like the square or round better.




If you'd like to enter this giveaway, all you need to do is tell us whether you like the square or round Eco-Cupcake Stand better and leave your email address in the comments section. We'll choose a winner randomly on Monday, February 8, 2010 at 5:00 pm ET and contact you via email.


Thanks, GreenPartyGoods, and good luck to all of you.

I like the square. The round is pretty and classic but the square seems edgier somehow.

This website is superb. If I had to pic, I'd have the square cake stand. I like the square because I find it more visually appealing. Not only does the shape look nice, but the Zebra print and the pink acccents give it a little twist. I would use this almost every week considering I bake every week for friends and family. Not that there's any occasion, it's just nice to share with others.

Love, love, love the square one! Can't you just see how it could be used to decorate a table in so many fun ways.
Unknown said…
I'd like the square one because I love how you can put a square cake on top. The cupcake wrappers are all adorable and it's even better that they're made out of recyclable materials.

Many thanks for such a delightful Valentine's Day Giveaway! I prefer the square one because I like the way the topper looks on the square
stand. My niece would love the cupcake stand and I have a friend getting married who wants cupcakes at her reception, instead of cake!
Many thanks, Cindi

Christina Ayson said…
I would definitely say the square stand. Even though I love both of them, the round cupcake stand is a bit generic, while the square stand is unique!

jenntacular said…
The square one takes my vote for being hip and edgy. Sustainability rocks!
Deborah Stewart said…
Hmmm - I think I am leaning more towards the square one. The round looks too weddingish:)

Zebra stripes got me! Square it is! Thanks for all your hard work!
Mother Martha said…
Definitely the square. I just yesterday volunteered to make the cupcakes for my friend's wedding, and she wants a small 2-tier, square cake as well, so this would coordinate perfectly. Thanks!

I think the square one is easier to grab the cupcakes off of! Last sping my daughter & her friends raised almost $4,000 having bake sales for the Relay for Life.
I know where I will be going this year for supplies--GreenPartGoods has an awesome selection!

lil_apple said…
I'm digging the round stand!
lauren.carrescia@gmail.com
Love the square cupcake stand because it seems that you can decorate the edges to match anything your little heart desires. You can make it as fun, elegant or as funky as you would like with I'm guessing adding a matching ribbon to the edges of the stand. Very fun and so much you can do with it:)

I like the round cupcake stand more so than the square one. It is so in tune with the round cupcakes. Smooth and soft and no sharp edges.

I think the only reason I love the square one more is because it has Zebra print! Otherwise I love them both.

I'm a bit too traditional, I like the round one better.

I love the square stand, it is so sleek and modern. With the cupcakes on it, it gives a more contrast look. While the round is more classic. They're both nice but I do love the square.
