I am SO an A cup…it matches my true cup size but it just the opposite of my personality size. Plus, what’s cuter than eating a tiny cake besides baby chicks and kittens and puppies? Nothing!
hmmmm… i would have to say handful, no wait, enough for two. Oh heck. It doesn’t matter a cupcakes a cupcake any size it’s good for the soul!
The “handfull” is probably the size I use most often…but I like to experiment with all different sizes. Thanks for the “giveaway”.
Let’s just say at one time or another I’ve been all 4. I’m going to put a different spin on things. Before I got married I was a bite size but thought I was a handful. I got pregnant, started nursing and became enough for 2! Now after I’m done nursing I’m definantly itty-bitty. Today if there was a saggy I’d be that!
Are we talking about cupcakes here?? Well then…plenty for two! That book is great – wish I had it for my daughter’s party. I stuck to the basic cupcake with sprinkles.
The perfect size…a handful of course!
Bite sized is the perfect size!
I love the bite size, i feel better if I have more than one, cause you know i will:)! Thanks for this wonderful giveaway! jil@jildesigns.com
HANDFUL all the way.. who doesn’t want a handful of EVERYTHING in life!!
Definitely the handful!
thanks for the awesome contest! Got a handul here – no more, no less! :)
C…just the right size! Dawn
doberholtz@kc.rr.com
definitely C!
I like Bite size! then if you want more you can just have two!

What a cute contest! I’ll vote for the B, it’s just the right size.

Definitely A – Bite Sized. Everyone loves cute mini things, especially cupcakes! :D
I’d have to say that I’m a handful kind of cupcake person! Those are about perfect, although some cupcakes deserve the F cup!
I like bite-sized, so you can go back for seconds with no guilt :)
I choose “C” because I’ve always heard more than a handful is a waste. ;)
jessicamch@hotmail.com
this double D picks D!!
is it me or does everyone that has
I’d have to say I’m an itty-bitty, cause they’re just so dang cute, and I can eat more that way, without feeling like I’ve eaten a lot. :)
B – Bite Size. I’ll freeze the rest of the batter to bake some more fresh on another day!
my comment didn’t show up….size B for me
i think i opt for B…the standard size. just enough to satisfy but brings you back for more…later!
really like A – itty bitty.
In life, I am definitely a Handful, but in Cupcake World, I am totally Standard…..
Thanks for the chance to win – just found your blog today and read the entire archive before breakfast, bought everything I need for cupcake pops before lunch – let’s see if I can make them before dinner!
Bite Size for me…I can’t believe there are 770 comments here!
Handful is awesome:)
Thanks!
Enough for two, of course! (But who says I’m gonna share??!!) ;-)
Definitely a bite size! Love your blog!! See the cupcake pops I made!!! http://www.fivefoottwo.typepad.com Thank you for such yummy ideas!
I’m a handful because bite size just isn’t big enough!
Bite sized sounds good to me!
Definitely a “D”–enough for two!! When it comes to cupcakes, I want as much as possible. Actually, a cupcake big enough for two would be just the right size for dinner!
collinshc@gmail.com or http://areyoudaft.blogspot.com/
So hard to decide. Itty-bitty on a health conscious day, bite size on a baking day, handful in the first trimester, and enough for two in the third trimester…Needless to say I am expecting and cupcakes never disappoint! :-)
darnetta_bolton@yahoo.com
The itty bitty ones would perfect for me to experiment with my cheesecake-buttercup recipe.
Yum! A handful! Or maybe two! I can’t say no to a good cupcake! callieball@gmail.com
I’d say a C… a nice size handful! Love your site!
I think the handful is my size :) Maybe two hands!
Oh, I like the little tiny ones! Just a bite or two—and of course, they are so much fun to decorate.
Bite sized. Bite sized? Really? Come on now, you’re making us B-cup gals feel bad :)
http://fuzzykoalacakecompany.blogspot.com
C-Handful! I love cupcakes, and I don’t want to have to share!
A handful…although if I can get a standard size of several different flavors I’m happy with that too!
The size really depends on the day. Typically a handful is perfect but on a rough day I go for the “enough for two” size. My husband says that anything more than a mouthful is a waste!
k.burns@suddenlink.net
I am a lover of bite sized. The kids can finish their and I don’t end up eating it!
Ummm, yes, a handful.
There’s a whole lot of cuteness going on in this blog!
I say a handfull! Love me some cupcakes. Thanks for the giveaway!!
http://www.creative-mess.blogspot.com
I think itty-bitty is the best for me but I usually make the bite-sized for the family. I especially like to pile on the icing so the cupcakes look much larger than they really are.
-Katherine
Cup size? As in….X___x *Silence* …nevermind >.< Bite sized! xD joisushi (at) yahoo (dot) com thank you =3
a large handful!! i don’t really like to share, especially dessert! :)
Definitely a C!!! I love your blog!
I like it handful , so you can get lost in different sensations until the last bite.
I’m finally in the cupcake craze, and I owe it your creativity. Thanks
karin
Oh, the bigger the better. When it comes to cupcakes, I’m definitely a D, especially when they’re so delicious!
B or A, so that I ca try many different flavors in one sitting!
handful, but i will never refuse the others!
Since I’m pregnant with our third child, I would definitely say “D”, enough for two. Thanks!
The standard size is just right for me. Guess I’m a bit of a traditionalist. I’d love to win that cookbook. I’m sure it would give me tons of inspiration and ideas.
I’d say I’m definitely a bite-sized gal. Thanks for all the great ideas on your blog!!
sulkygrrl@gmail.com
“D” will be my answer. It’s always good to share.
Yummy! I wish that I could have all 4. I guess that I will choose the handful, because some say anymore is just a waste.
Definitely the handful! Although, if I was really being honest I’d say enough for two.
My cup size for cupcakes? Hmmm, D -enough for two.
i am a handful kind a girl. standard size works for me. :O)
c~ please
I started out really liking itty bitty… but after having children… now it’s enough for two!
Great contest… LOVE your cupcakes!
K
I’m a fan of the handful size because there are fewer for me to fill and frost. That way I can spend a little more time decorating each one.
I’m “enough for two” so I can share with my honey! :)
Thanks for a wonderful place to get great ideas!!!
Why choose when you can eat them all? :)
If I have to choose I would be B, bigger than bite sized, but just enough for me and since I always make more than one, everyone can have their own :)
do they make a dd-cup for those friends out there who are just over-endowed?
Pick me, I’m your biggest referrer in the Idaho/Wyoming area fur sure! ader (dot) berry (at) gmail
I’d say enough for two so my honey and I can dig in and enjoy it together! Thanks for the opportunity to win either an amazing book or a fabulous t-shirt!

Go big or go home! At what point does it become a fullblown cake?
itty bitty is my favorite
definitely bite size. pop them in and eat twice as many, without feeling bad!
i’ll have to say bite-size! perfect for one sitting and always makes me want more! :)
A-CUP, THEN YOU CAN HAVE A LITTLE TASTE OF EVERY FLAVOR!!
That would be letter D! You can never have too much cupcake!!!
Itty Bitty so I can pop a couple and not feel too guilty!
Itty-bitty…that way I won’t feel guilty about having one, two or even three throughout the day :) Thank you for this awesome blog…you are my cupcake inspiration!
Itty Bitty
D! It has to be big if I’m going to share with my husband.
Itty Bitty – so that i can have all of the flavours…
p/s: yes i’m greedy..but who can resist cupcakes =D
Wow – definitely a handful! I really should revert to Itty Bitty….my a** would be a bit smaller! Thanks for the drawing!
mmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmm since I am a newly wed, I think the one for two would be my choice!
I like the handful :D
unfortunately – they are a handful.
Thanks for the opportunity.
used to be a lovely handful, until i got knocked up. Now it’s all about enough for two!
Definitely a Handful, but don’t forget the milk to help wash it all down. But then again… it I have an itty-bitty then I don’t feel so bad when I go for seconds and even thirds. Who am I kidding? All sizes are beautiful no matter how you dress them up. Thanks for the chance to comment. Your site is always a highlight in my roving blog searches as a new mom finding some delicious downtime.
depends. love your blog! fingers crossed
I am a B and my heart with always be with B cups. They work with every recipe and it’s all mine!!!
Itty bitty is best cuz that way I can eat many different ones :) And like I always say “mini cupcakes are best cuz you can get all the flavor without *waisting* a day’s worth of calories!” hahahah get it, “waisting” instead of “wasting” hahahaha gawd, I just crack me up! hahahah
Have a delicious day!
I love the handful! Its just enough to eat, because bite size you need to eat three.
Handfull is just right! Your great keep it up. Thanks
Bite-sized! Love your blog!
Thanks, Bakerella, for making this so much fun! Not only do you treat us with your amazing ideas, but now you are offering a giveaway! Wow! So much for the cupcake lover to handle!
Let’s see: Itty-bitty works to give me just the right size when I’m training for a race (I can snack without the guilt).
Bite-size- when that’s all that’s offered, I’ll take it. I also tend to use this size when I’m baking cupcakes for my kiddos.
Handful…my favorite size, I tend to flock to this size.
Enough for two- um….you mean enough for a mom who’s had a bad week -I’ll take it!
thanks, again, bakerella!
Definitely D- then there’s plenty to share! Love your book, and would love to win.
I should be a B…but I stuff a C…I aspire to be a D :o)
Enough for two, so I can share with my sweet hubby!!! Thanks for all the great ideas and a chance to win.

micheld_001@yahoo.com
bite size because then you get a good ratio of cake to icing in each bite.
I love the minis. Except they’re dangerous. Really dangerous! Lovely page, I just subscribed.
Definitely B…the standard. Love your blog!
denise dot reese at yahoo dot com
I gotta go with B (bite sized), if you look at the ratio of top of cupcake (yumminess) to bottom of cupcake it is just right!!!
Wow – how nice to offer a prize! I’m going to go for the bite-sized so I can have several different bite sized flavors! :)
I’d have to say C. Maybe 2 C’s!! Thanks!
I’m would say the handful. ;o).
LOVE your blog!!! I’ve tried a few of your recipes and have had tons of fun with them :) My kids love the cupcake pops!! As for cupcake size, I think I’m more of an itty bitty kinda gal. That way I can keep popping them in my mouth but never feel guilty cause they’re so, well, itty bitty!!
I like itty bitty cupcakes because I can try more than one flavor without feeling too guilty.
If I eat more than and itty bitty size, I turn into more than a handful!
D! And what an awesome giveaway.
love_cats05@yahoo.com
WooHoo! I’m so excited!
If you’re looking at my chest, I’d have to say a “B”, but if its my stomach that your speaking to, Please fill me up with “D’s”!
Thank you for the wonderful blog, and your brilliant creations! I turn green with envy when I see all the great products you can use over there.
Hmm, Though an “itty bitty” snack is always good for that small sweet craving, the “bite size” fills a deeper craving for a mouth full of gooey goodness, for myself though I’d have to say I’m an “enough for two” type of gal. Its big enough to share or hoard for yourself, eat half now and save half for later. Two desserts in one!
Enough for Two-gotta share with hubby and baby!!
I wish I was a handful – a C but unfortunately I’m more than more than a handful!!
Bite size is what usually we can get here in Norway.
We just have to eat more then :-)
Please include me in your drawing.
I like the handful with LOTS of frosting!
I would definitely have to say C, just the right size!
I choose “enough for two” that’s to say a little bit for me (I just have to taste everything) and a mega cupcake for my boyfriend (he really LOVES cupcakes).
While itty-bitty and bite-size should be enough for me, the handful is what I prefer. ;) However, I do have to say that every recipe I have tried of yours makes me want enough for two!!!
I’m going to say B Cup!
It’s just the perfect size–it’s ALL for you, and it’s not so much that you’ll feel guilty later for eating it. Plus [as you keep on showing us!], they are so fun to decorate with!
[I don’t know if you can pick your prize if you win, but I was going to say that if I should win, I’d like the shirt–I already have the book, I got it RIGHT when it came out…I had it reserved like four months before it was released! Haha]
Itty bitty for me please!
A handful, assuming there are chocolate chips in it…
I am a ‘C’ kind of gal! After you endulge in a standard cupcake you always want more, so you might as well go for the bigger cup ;)
i ♥ your blog! keep up the beautiful work!
I am definitely a size D! Enough for two is just enough for one me!
Bite-sized, unless it’s amazingly good. Then…a handful!
i aM goinG wItH thE oNe thAt mAtchEs mY BrA sIzE! C iT is!!
Bite size…so you can snack all day long!
thanks for the fun ideas! yay, for the give-a-way :)
A! I love little foods. And I feel much better about eating a few!
Definitely a handful!
my cups always runnith over! Too Funny!
Christa
B, Bite-size. Love your site and I really enjoy all the ideas!
Bite size for me…. then you don’t feel guilty about eating a few at a time lol j/k
a handful is allll you ever need :-)
I would say handful. This really made me laugh. I hope I win!! I made your cake balls for the first time a few months ago and I can’t tell you how big of a hit they were.
Handfull is great. Just love your blog.
Cute post! I’m thinking the handful too. Thanks for doing the giveaway!!!
Ohhh I prefer a “D” but i’m not sharing!
Itty Bitty. Because it doesn’t matter how many you eat, servings that size don’t count!
Love the site, by the way!
Are we taking about muffins here? :) I prefer itty-bitty ones. I like cutesy stuff.
C – handful for me just the right size for a cup of brewed coffee
Bite size – they’re so cute and then you can have two! ;)
Bite size for me please!!!
~ Pam
I prefer the B-cup cupcake. I have better luck controlling the moistness of the cake with the standard size.
The pervy side of me was thinking you were asking something else!
Standard size…the original always makes me feel like a kid again (except the part about not having to worry about them hips and thighs). Paula
I always use the handful one :)
with two of them ppl are always full, well…at least normal ppl :D
(guys doesn’t count)
Thanks for giving this awesome opportunity to total strangers!
The handfull is perfect for me.
Ha! Too funny! Personally Id like to have a cupcake handful… if it was “that time” maybe one handful for each hand! lol When I bake for others though, potlucks etc, I go for the mini. With all the delicious food there, some will actually pass up a regular size cuppie.. OH THE HORROR!! but if it is an A cup.. no one can resist a nibble! :P

D…when it comes to sweets, the bigger, the better!
well, not so thrilled to admit it, but i’m enough for 2. yep. If it was topped with a generous sprinkling of coconut, i’d be forced to say, it’s just for one – me!
itty bitty cos the cupcake would look sooo cute plus the way you can just pop them into your mouth =)
sitilah@yahoo.com
I always thought more than a handful was wasted.
xo
kittee
for sure the “enough for two”! If your gonna do it…may as well do it big!! :)
I love your blog…you make the yummiest, cutest things! Thanks for sharing your talents!!
i like the bite size. just enough for a snack.
I love to win your prize
Oh, I am definitely in the “enough for two” category…haha!
Love your site!!

oops..forgot my web
val is at http://www.yarnigras.blogspot.com
B is perfect for me. But it can’t be flat on top….needs to be nicely rounded. In fact I made some chocolate muffins tonite that are perfection……….YUM
I hope I win….don’t we all?
I’d love to win the book! I’d vote for C. With lots of frosting! Check out my blog at http://smilesandsunshine.wordpress.com.
itty bitty!! Just like my real cup size =P (Is that TMI??)
I am a bite-size girl!
The bite-size is for me! It offers the best cake to frosting ratio for my taste!
i think when i was being created, i wandered around too much and missed the line for cupcakes in general. therefore God, being generous, gave me the minis and lots of icing out of kindness instead of no cupcakes at all. enough for two is what you get when you stand in the cupcake line twice, and skip the line for icing…and everyone knows the icing is the best part anyway, right? (let’s hope.)

I must admit, I’m part of the itty bitty committee!!! In more than one way unfortunately!!!!
reynaforreal at gmail dot com
I should go for the itty bitty but go big or go home, right?… I’ll take enough for two!
mini of course!
Handful for me! Yum, yum!
hhhhaaaaahahahahha! definitely C!
i like me a handful.
http://www.thecleanplateclub.net
Give me a handful, indeed. The mini and standard just insult me :) and the guilt of the cup for two sends me over the edge.
I have been lusting after this new book…what a wonderful prize. Yet the tshirt is perfect…what a dilemma!
jennifertuttle (@) bellsouth (dot) com
D! I’m an eater and love sweets! No shame here!!! stefward03@hotmail.com
My favorite is D – Enough for Two. That way, my husband and I can share it. :) What a fun giveaway!!! :)
Mmmm.. That’s a hard one… I think bite-sized because you can have many bites and you don’t feel as bad…UNLESS it’s a chocolate cupcake then you need “enough for 2”. I want that t-shirt and book!
Bite sized you can less guilt, even though you can’t resist another and another…:)
Enough for two!!!
enough for two, of course! (: who doesn’t like having someone to share it with? unless that cupcake is just TOO good. then you’ll have enough to indulge yourself as much as you please~ i love your site! it’s always the sweetest thing (:
First off…love the cup cake papers…I think my size is enough for two…I LOVE being able to share yummy food with a friend…nothing better than introducing new stuff to your friend or special someone and enjoying it together!

Thanks for the chance to win…I would definately say enough for two—what can I say I love treats, and my kids usually steal…maybe with that there is enough to share! Thanks for the chance to win!
Shelly
Oh wonderful- a give away!!!
count me in :)
Hmm…I would have to say bite sized. Thanks for doing this contest!
I am bite-sized!!!
Fun, fast and friendly because they’re usually cuter and guilts me less than the others.
You rock!
I’d go for bite-sized, because it’s all about having just enough cake to justify lots of frosting. :-) Thanks for doing this!
mrs.koehler@yahoo.com
Enough for two most definetly…I go big all the time!!
A-Itty bitty for me.
They are just the right size to pop one in your mouth.
I also have to say- since i am itty bitty ..(a whopping 5’2″ with shoes!) i had to pick itty bitty anyways. My 4 girls are ittybitties, but my 2 boys–not so much. ;)
Now on to the giveaway!!!!!!!
hello … me me me!!

collettmail@msn.com

ryanmanor@hotmail.com
Bite size… love the contest… thanks
Definitely “B” Bite-Size. It’s just enough, but not too much :)
Wheresgidget@gmail.com
I would have to go with handfull, just enough but not too much. And almost enough to share.
bite-size! I love trying to fit the mound of frosting in my mouth when I bite them in half! so cute!
I’ll take standard although I could totally eat the biggest!
I’m a C Cup. HANDFUL BABY!!!
I think I’m a D… I am giver and sharer… so I don’t mind – and what’s better than sharing a cup cake!!!
I’m going for a handful, just the right amount for a me!
