[valerienguyen392]

[layla8284]

Could you make cotton candy cupcakes my friend told me about them and i thought your the only one who could make something that sound so good.

[CookingAndCrafting]

@layla8284 YES!! This is on the list of things to make! :))))  I JUST found the cotton candy flavoring about two weeks ago. Now, if I can remember where I put it... I will get on that ASAP

[nenah10101]

does it taste the same with the reg. champagne (the clear kind) or it has to b pink? will it change the taste?

[CookingAndCrafting]

@nenah10101 I do not drink, so I don't know the differences in flavors between pink and regular champagne..sorry

[sundragon1976]

so.... were they any good? they are beautiful, but was the taste really winey (champagney? lol) or just subtle...? thamks :)

[CookingAndCrafting]

@sundragon1976 To me it was strong, but I think that it was the frosting that tasted strong

[azyways]

[Sailorperson1]

@azyways go to Wiltons . com

[CookingAndCrafting]

@azyways Walmart. Michael's.

[BeautyfulButterfly13]

I love all your videos. I think your just an amazing person, but I have to say I hate it when you tap the spoons or measure cups on the side of the bowls and etc....Its so loud and its just bang after bang. Still watch them cause i love them and thanks.

[CookingAndCrafting]

@BeautyfulButterfly13 Thank you.

[brian09able]

check out yoyomax12 she has awesome cupcakes

[CookingAndCrafting]

@brian09able Yes she does. Tammy and I have been friends for years now

[ocstyle1503]

I have to make these they look delicious!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@ocstyle1503 Thanks! Did you make them?

[TheMuggleworld]

Can i substitute the champagne for something non alcoholic? And if i can what can i substitute it with? Because i'm underage, and i live in Saudi Arabia so it's kinda illegal... But it looks so pretty!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@TheMuggleworld  sub with a nonalcoholic champagne.

[danine56]

yuuuuuuuuuuuummmm cant wait to try them thank you

[CookingAndCrafting]

@danine56 Hope you like them! 

[koreangurlswag]

where do you get the piping bag that comes with the tips at the end?

[CookingAndCrafting]

@koreangurlswag I bought them separately...and inserted them in it

[MegaLalaloopsy]

[XHotPinkPunkX]

[CookingAndCrafting]

@XHotPinkPunkX i agree :)

[sparklebox11]

whoops, spatula on recipe paper! .................. the cupcakes look fabul !! thank you!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@sparklebox11 THANKS

[pinkfuzzypillow11]

ooooooohhhhh this is relly PINK it reminds me of a cupcake place that I forgot the name of but they have pink champinge cupcakes that tasted amazing.

[CookingAndCrafting]

@pinkfuzzypillow11 these are good :) 

[MsKimlo]

I'm giving these a try! They look great! : )

[CookingAndCrafting]

@MsKimlo I hope you enjoy it. I don't drink and the frosting made me a little tipsy lol

[CookingAndCrafting]

@NativeSpice1 I got tipsy off this, though a lot of that has to do with the fact that I don't drink. I ended up dumping the rest of the champagne. Now I am interested to know what it tastes like as opposed to in the cupcakes haha

[NewbyNatural]

What's the purpose of using egg whites, instead of the whole egg?

[CookingAndCrafting]

@NewbyNatural Egg whites keep it lighter..more like an angel food cake consistency

[CupcakeIdeasForYou]

I love those cupcakes! they absolutely adorable!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@CupcakeIdeasForYou Thanks! They are visually quite beautiful!

[barbiixhatesxpink]

Those are so cute...I don't know that I would make them for myself as I don't like Champagne. You sure had to use alot and did they take on the taste? It seems as if it would...they are definately very pretty,and would be a great idea for a party! I just don't like Champagne,haha!! <3

[CookingAndCrafting]

@barbiixhatesxpink Yes, they do take on the champagne taste. These were too strong for me, as I am not a drinker. I got drunk off the frosting!

[barbiixhatesxpink]

@CookingAndCrafting I wouldn't make them for myself...They look gorgeous! I Might make them just to look at,lol! <3

[lip2tip]

Oh, these cupcakes are so cute. I was hoping that countertop oven would work out for ya. Were you able to make your Christmas Ham?

[CookingAndCrafting]

@lip2tip yeah, we did cut off pieces of it (it was a spiral ham) to fit in there!

[anmoose]

I'm amazed by the potency of that food color concentrate. A drop on a toothpick, and all that batter came out *that* pink?

Cute little mini-oven. That's not the first one you brought home, is it?

[CookingAndCrafting]

@anmoose Yep that is the oven that I bought. I never took it back, as apparently that is all that this Lowe's carried (not the convention). I have a new story about the oven now *ROLLING EYES*

Yep, just the butt of that toothpick got it that pink! It's potent stuff. Stained my fingers for days. It was a light pink to start with, and probably would have been good enough

[GramsandPapi]

Very pretty! Be lovely to serve at a tea!! Blessings, Ang

[Ultimatecruegirl]

Ok first off why is the vid for the drunky drunk cupcakes just popping into my sub box now/Stupid U tube I could have made these for new years. OK well I will just make them anyway so there U tube. Second I love the counter top oven. How handy is that jsut to do a small batch of cupcakes. I think it's FAB.

Paste food coloring is awesome you get such vid colors.

Third OMG look at the pretty fou-fou cupcakes! I can not for the life of me figure out why Scott did not gobble these up.

[chavitavb]

Ahh very interesting. I found expensive champagne is disgusting and cheap champagne is good?

[CookingAndCrafting]

@chavitavb I don't drink but this stuff was around $4 for the bottle hahaha and it was fairly strong. But again, I don't drink, so anthing alcohol containing is strong to me. I'm a cheap date ;)

[LivingOutinOKC]

this one looks really good and i think i might take them to work.. great video!!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@LivingOutinOKC Warning: The alcohol content in the frosting--whew!! maybe if you take it to work, they should take it home to eat

[yoyomax12]

Your money shots were amazing for this one, really makes me want to make them!

What a delicate shade of pink, very pretty.

[CookingAndCrafting]

@yoyomax12 Thanks--it helps when you make pretty food and not casseroles hahaha I did also use the natural lighting, as it was morning when I made these :)

[AnnyaMoon]

Oh NICE! I love that recipe. Could you taste much alchohol in them..like in the frosting in particular? :)

[CookingAndCrafting]

@AnnyaMoon Oh yes, you can definitely taste the alcohol in them. Very much so. I'm not a drinker and seriously, felt a little woozy for half a second there. But I get woozy when I take sips of any sort of alcohol. I'm a lightweight in that department at least ;)

[imperceptibleme]

They were so pretty and looked yummy! I don't know if I have ever drank pink champagne. If I have it's been way way many years ago! Hugs!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@imperceptibleme They are pretty good :) Yesterday I had one and you could taste the yumminess of the butter on the frosting!

[lindsnh]

They look so yummy! I am going to make these next year!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@lindsnh Why wait! Celebrate on Valentine's day!

[XxPuddingFaceXx]

I couldn't eat it..they are too cute! ^_^

[CookingAndCrafting]

@XxPuddingFaceXx HAHAHA Very true :)

[starkrazi]

I will have to try these out. 2 of my favorites combined YUM

[CookingAndCrafting]

@starkrazi They are pretty good for cupcakes. Light, moist, yummy

[godseeri]

OMG those look so good! I love cupcakes!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@godseeri I do too!! I would open a business if I could!

[bellagrace714]

Yummy! Happy New Year Beth!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@bellagrace714 Thank you, same to you :)

[WackaDoodleFreeZone]

I love Champagne so I know I would like these cupcakes. I will have to make them sometime soon! Thank you for sharing this with us! HUGS xoxox Happy New Year!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@WackaDoodleFreeZone I hope you get to make them!

[ItalianStallionette]

Ooooooooo.. sooooo pretty and yummy looking. I didn't know they sold sparkly decorations for desserts. Oh goodness. I have to buy them!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@ItalianStallionette I found these at Ross. Safeway had edible PEARLS! Shut up, right?

[MouseChirpy]

I like how the addition of the champagne seemed to make the batter really light and fluffy. This looks so delicious. Gobs of pretty pink frosting topped with sprinkles...I'm drooling!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@MouseChirpy I was amazed at how LIGHT these were. I felt they were almost uncooked or something? It was nice :)))

[meluv2cook]

Oh cool, you used your new counter top oven! Do you love it?  I sure do love mine, perfect for small batch baking. :)

[CookingAndCrafting]

@meluv2cook It is very small so you have to do things in batches but I could see where it would be nice for a single person in a studio apartment!

[LitlRuthy]

They look sooooo goooood =) Nice idea for New Years

[CookingAndCrafting]

@LitlRuthy Yes indeedy :)

[SnowflakeStacy]

I've always wanted to try these. I can't wait! Thanks!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@SnowflakeStacy Yey! Let me know if you make them!

[LauraInCali]

What pretty cupcakes. I especially love the rose food coloring. I must get some.

[CookingAndCrafting]

@LauraInCali Yep, much prettier than what the red would have done!

[CrittalBugg]

Very pretty and yummy looking!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@CrittalBugg Thanks!

[MISSBEBEBLUE]

pink delicousness!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@MISSBEBEBLUE I know, right?

[zanessa49]

do u have 2 use pink champagne or can u use something else my mom wants to kno as in a differnt kind of champagne

[CookingAndCrafting]

@zanessa49 You can use a white champagne, since you are adding in red food coloring to make them pink :)

[thizizliz]

Yummmers!!!! I'll be right there. :) Seriously, they are so pretty that I just want to taste them. 

[CookingAndCrafting]

@thizizliz They really are so incredibly pretty. But mother too got drunk off of them HAHAHA

[thizizliz]

@CookingAndCrafting Wow, you two are light weights! and it's so early still. LOL! :) Now I have the munchies though, so I gotta go surfing for goodies in the kitchen because of you! Happy New Year!

[eastsaintlouis62203]

yummy

[CookingAndCrafting]

@eastsaintlouis62203 Yep :)

[lovehorrormovies10]

i have a quiestion- are your videos more towords kids (teens/tweens/kids) or 18+ ?

just wondering! just videos BTW

[CookingAndCrafting]

@lovehorrormovies10 We always try to keep videos so that any and all ages may view them. No swearing, etc. I did do a few videos with my grand-nephew to show that you can craft with children ages 2 and up and have them enjoy themselves and prove that they can pay attention if you keep them interested. I was babysitting him but no longer am, so he will not be showing up in many more videos. I hope that answers your question

[Elvis66]

The frosting is the best part!! ;-) Happy new year!! I dont know your name right off hand, but I live your videos. Have a safe and happy new year!!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@Elvis66 I'm Beth-- what's yours? :)

Thanks--you too

[Elvis66]

@CookingAndCrafting My name is Harold from Ohio. Nice to meet you Beth!!!! ;-)

[CookingAndCrafting]

@Elvis66 Good to meet you, Harold! :)

[ABQdoubleG]

[CookingAndCrafting]

@ABQdoubleG Yes they are :) Thanks, same to you and your mom!

[justwant2bhappy]

They looked yummy. I have eaten so much of the holiday goodies, tomorrow no more. lol

Lauren

[CookingAndCrafting]

@justwant2bhappy LOL!!! Scott just asked if he should have 2-3 hot dogs. I said 3 because tomorrow you diet BWAHAHA We jest, of course. New year's resolutions seldom stick. I think I would like to be healthier, that is for sure, but dunno about the diet ;)

[popparoc46]

yum.  - roc

[CookingAndCrafting]

@popparoc46 Agreed. They look incredible. Didn't even want to bite into it!

[ArgentineShamrock]

Still 8 minutes left in 2010 :) Very pretty cupcakes. Hope you are enjoying the rest of the champagne.

[CookingAndCrafting]

@ArgentineShamrock Happy New Year, Adriana!!

[pjspassions]

[CookingAndCrafting]

@pjspassions They were--made me a little tipsy too (obviously I am not a drinker lol)

[wildheart5]

They look lucious and I just love that shade of pink!! I often say cham-pagne too, funny...I have never heard anyone else say that! ha!

[CookingAndCrafting]

@wildheart5 Because we are both pretty much one and the same ;)

[wildheart5]

@CookingAndCrafting ...we could be dangerous together...just sayin'

[Blueyeshining]

Happy New Years Looks yummy

[CookingAndCrafting]

@Blueyeshining Thank you and same to you!
