Cupcake Competition Launch!


Big news LL fans! To celebrate the arrival of my new cupcake gift boxes I'm launching the first ever Lucky Ladybird competition, and it starts today!
First take a look at the new gift boxes to get started. Each set includes a cupcake coin purse, a matching bag charm and a filling of delicious treats all packaged in a beautiful cupcake gift box.

Introducing, the lemon cupcake gift box

The sets are designed to be the perfect gift for cake-lovers, but I'd love to add a fourth flavour to the range. This is where you come in, what do you think the fourth cupcake flavour should be? Use your imagination. Maybe you have your own recipe that you'd like to see sewn in fabric, or maybe you've seen something mouthwatering on Pinterest that you just can't resist. Remember a great cupcake should have tempting flavours but should also look colourful and interesting. I'm looking for something that will really stand out from the crowd!

The winner will be the person who comes up with the best cupcake recipe suggestion. Not only will they get to see their suggestion become part of the Lucky Ladybird cupcake collection but they will also receive a cupcake gift box of whichever flavour they chose FOR FREE! The handmade gift boxes normally retail at £20, and this is a one-off opportunity to win one for nothing at all!

To enter email info@luckyladybirdcraft.co.uk with the subject heading 'Cupcake Competition'. Include your name and an email address where you can be contacted as well as your suggestion for a cupcake recipe. If it's a cupcake you've made and photographed or seen online then you can include a photo, but that's not strictly necessary. The deadline for competition entry is Monday October 14th, so please email your suggestions soon to be in with a chance of winning. Due to postage costs I'm sorry to say the competition is only open to residents of Great Britain.

Please spread the word to let cupcake fans know about the competition. There will be regular updates and reminders via Facebook and Twitter so keep in touch and feel free to message or tweet me with any questions you have. I can't wait to see what flavours you come up with! Let the competition begin!

Good luck ladybirds,

LL xx

*UPDATE*
Thank you to everyone who entered the competition! The winner was a Mrs Janet Walker with her suggestion of a blueberry cupcake. Stay tuned for details of a new Lucky Ladybird compeition coming in 2014
