Cake Art Party Store! I started going here about two years ago when the baking and cake decorating bug bit me. When I first walked in, I was overwhelmed. Actually, I’m still overwhelmed. There’s so much stuff I don’t know… don’t even have a clue about… but I feel like I learn something new every single time I visit. Unfortunately, I can’t do that very often because this store makes me spend money.
Like on these things. I’m serious… this place is dangerous. I think I get a sugar high or something when I walk in … my heart starts racing … I start picking random stuff up. And when I get home, bags full… I’m like, what just happened.
But, when you see all these… in one place. You start thinking… do I have enough yellow sprinkles. I can’t remember. Okay, get some more and get some blue ones, and red ones while you’re at it.
And then, you start thinking that you can’t live without blue teddy bear sprinkles or green palm tree sprinkles, or pink pigs. And what if someone has a baby… I need those baby sprinkles or wait, boys like cupcakes… what about helmet and football sprinkles. You see where I’m going. Let’s just say that I have accumulated my fair share of sprinkles.
The funny thing is … I hardly ever use them on cupcakes or cakes. It just makes me feel good knowing I have them just in case. I know … weird! But, they do come in handy when it comes to decorating cake pops, so that’s how I justify it.
You can even buy them in bags!
Here’s something I’ve never tried… and I think I’ll leave for the pros… Airbrush! Pretty colors, though.
Speaking of colors… did you know you can buy rolled fondant that is already tinted?
I started doing this recently with red fondant because it is seriously a pain to tint it yourself and get it a deep red color.
Now, a lot of people don’t like the taste of fondant, they just like the look of it from a visual perspective. So, if you just want to experiment, then play around and buy it pre-made. Just don’t get this much. You can stick with the 1 pound packages.
Or if you really want, make some from scratch. I hear marshmallow fondant is pretty good.
Anyone need 25 lbs of buttercream frosting?
Or tinted buttercream?
Not me. I like to make my own buttercream and tint it myself. Yummy!
Need some petit four icing? Just snip the tip and go. Great for beginners.
Marzipan… I haven’t dabbled in this stuff yet, but I do like saying the name. Marzipan!
Check this out! This might just be the best part of the store. Pans! Round ones, oval ones, heart-shaped ones, square ones! And in graduated sizes, too! And different heights! Help me, please.
Tools. I love tools. Offset spatulas and flat spatulas. Thank you.
Inside these little trays are every decorating tip you can think of and some you can’t. Grab some disposable bags and couplers and you’re set.
There’s so much stuff in the store that you can miss little things like this. Petal dust and luster dust… I think I’m in love. Now, I just have to figure out what to do with it.
Need to stack a big cake? Sorry, I can’t help you… haven’t done that.
Mine are little and usually just end up on cake boards like these.
And sometimes, they get put in cake boxes. I love cake boxes. Especially the tiny ones.
Little cakes in little boxes are just the cutest!
Need some party supplies? They have that, too.
Baking cups for boys and girls.
Tons and tons of plastic cake toppers. I’ve never bought anything down this aisle…
But, this one made me laugh so hard, I almost bought it for a Mother’s Day cake. Then, I pictured myself on Cake Wrecks and stopped myself. :)
Father’s Day is around the corner, though…
Almost done… hang in there. Cookie cutters are always fun to have.
And so are these. I have this set of dual sided graduated cutters. I love them and they come in super handy when I make fondant covered cupcakes.
Gadgets galore! I can’t stand in this section too long because my pantry just isn’t big enough.
And guess what… that’s just the half of it. Actually, the 1/8th of it. I wish I could show you everything.
Coming soon… candy stuff!
Hope you guys liked looking at all that stuff and thanks Cake Art for letting me show everyone that there’s a much bigger cake world than the 9 inch cake pans I used to buy in the grocery store. And guess what guys… most of it’s easier than you think.

Yay Cam! Have any Sprinkle preferences?
This place is like my heaven. Wish I had a store like that around me. I’d be their best customer :P
My favorite tool is the rubber spatula. It makes everything so much easier.
OMG, i want to take a trip there like now! Palm trees would be PERFECT for my wedding reception at the end of the month! Anything Hawaiian would be!
My fave baking item, is probably my mixer. LOL. I mean, how did people cream eggs and sugar before them?!
I am just learning to decorate cakes and such so I cant say I have a favorite tool yet I love it all!!!
I wish I could create like you do. That store is an inspiration!
I can’t do without my Wilton colour gel – it does the trick when tinting all my homemade fondant. But, man, I wish I didn’t have to make fondant –
cshrumm@yahoo.com
I love the petal dusts. I could browse through them all day… just wish I could afford all the ones I want!
My all time favorite baking tool is my cookie scoop! No more uneven cookies that bake at different rates! No more squabbling over who has the biggest cookie!
musical.girl at gmail.com or
http://prenticefamily.wordpress.com/
My new favorite thing is the shaped fondant cutter thing–you roll it out and can cut strips with things embossed into them, with pinking-shear like edges, and all sorts of other fun designs. You can make fancy schmancy stuff in no time! :)
I think my favorite baking tool would be my sucker molds. It makes my kids and the neighborhood kids very happy when I make suckers for them.
You shop there like I do at a scrapbooking store, and a photography store. Who knows if you have some at home, or might need some more at a later date. So I had better buy it now.
I love your blog, love your photography, girl you are a talent!
Jen
I couldn’t live without my scoopers.. for cupcakes, cookies… icecream…
schaeferpartyof5@yahoo.com
Oh My Gosh!!! I’d spend waaay to much money in a store like that! I’d love to visit one in person!
I can’t imagine being without any of my “tools” but today I love my silpat baking mat.
I love sprinkles of all kinds! I haven’t been able to find any heart shaped or those larger white ones you used on your lamb cake pops (which were adorable).
Annie
thedixiechick1@yahoo.com
That store looks like baker’s paradise! Awesome! I think my favorite tool is probably my offset spatula. I couldn’t find it for a few minutes when I was decorating my last cake, and I started to panic.
lovelt@insightbb.com Thanks! :)
The best cake decorating tool by far is the turntable….what a lifesaver!
Love the site!
cupcake liners! i am obsessed!!!!
jamiemester@gmail.com
WOAH! That store is outrageous! I love it!
My fav tool – offset spatula!
I like my off set spatula . and the scoops for cup cakes and salad. I have three.
mstabler1@windstream.net
I’ve been looking for Minnie Mouse sprinkles!!! The only thing I’ve been able to find… Mickey Mouse sprinkles – of course! Bummer!!!
chichbran@yahoo.com
My favorite is my mini scoops. I have two different sizes and you can use them for almost anything from cookies and cupcakes, to candies. I WANT SPRINKLES!! LOL
Lots and lots of baking sheets. I just ordered new ones. And mini bread loaf pans. And mini muffin pans. And regular muffin pans. Can’t wait for all my new goodies to get here!
http://www.teachergoingmad.blogspot.com
I can’t live without my cake leveler. For stacked, layered cakes, it’s a must.
Wowzers! I could go crazy in a place like that. I am a sprinkle addict! I freely admit it.
Hmmm, do they have this store anywhere in Canada? I need sprinkles!
I will have to go there. I have to save my money first!
Those cookie cutters looked divine!
Wow, I was going to comment anyway, but I have to say, I need a store like that near me. You just made me drool. I love frosting tips, but I really, really want 3 baking pans in 3 different sizes so I can my my daughters a princess cake. I’ve been after that for a while. but, ah, the whole money issue. Someday…someday I’ll also get into fancier frosting as well…
Thank you, I love this post. It is my favorite post I’ve read in a while. Even if you never get to read this, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
My favorite baking tool would be my stand mixer. It is wonderful!
Ahh! I want a store like that by me! I love my cake leveler.
jeslyn21(at)hotmail
This would be a great side trip on any future visit to Georgia! I just discovered your site after Christmas and I love looking at your creations. I have some of the basic Wilton tips and the spatula, but the most valuable thing that I use is my Mother’s recipe for decorator’s icing from when she made wedding cakes.
Oh my. That store.. I’m sure I could spend hours there! All the sprinkles!!!! I seriously, thanks to you, want a sprinkle rack instead of a spice rack!
karene1030@gmail.com
I would love this store!! I’m OBSESSED with Halloween-themed sprinkles — bats, black cats, ghosties — not to mention cupcake liners.
My favorite tool has to be my silpat.
Oh how I wish that store was here in WA!!! I love working with Marzipan! Princess Torta is my favorite cake to make (from Sweden). I am always looking for cute sprinkles – the only stores we have around here are JoAnn's & Michaels, so a cool assortment would be awesome!!!
http://www.goffsix.blogspot.com
Christina
Wow! A trip from Texas is in order! Such a cool store! I think I'd be in big trouble!
My favorite baking tool is my small scoop. It makes perfectly sized cake balls, cookies & yes, even meatballs!
Wendi
My favorite baking item is a ziploc bag. I use them instead of true pastry bags. And they seal!
i need to make a trip from texas just to go there–ruthcarruth@gmail.com
Oh WOW!!! That store looks amazing!! I could spend thousands of dollars there!! I have a cake business, so it’s hard to pick just one favorite decorating item. I am going to go with my Pampered Chef batter scoop … it creates the perfect sized cupcake every time, and is so much easier and cleaner than using a spoon or anything else. Oh … also, I am going to suggest a new product for you to try … it is called pixie dust or disco dust. It comes in the same type of container as petal or luster dust, and it is super sparkly and little girls (and big girls, too!) love it!! I sprinkle it over buttercream or brush it on fondant, and it adds so much sparkle. Love it! I want to win those sprinkles!! :)
I loooove my stainless steel bench knife with measurement markings on the edge. It’s perfect for cutting brownies and bar cookies.
I’m with you on the sprinkle lovin’. They just add an instant shot of cuteness!
-fantasticdramatic@gmail.com
I love tartlet pans! Tiny tarts for everyone!!
I hope I win the sprinkles, though. I can’t get that sort of selection where I live.
Thanks Bakerella!
I used to like you but now you’ve made me jealous and I’m not so sure anymore LOL. To live by a store like this would be a dream for me and my husbands worst nightmare!
I have way to many favorite tools but I think my ultimate favorite would have to be my little cookie scoop :)
OH, how i wish that store was close to me!!! I would go broke in there. At this point my favorites are my tips and a zipper bag! I don’t have anything but basic sprinkles here!! Thanks so much.
I love my measuring cups – have to be exact you know!! a.haun@sbcglobal.net
My little ladder, so that my 3 year old can help!
That place looks amazing. I’m not sure I’d ever be able to leave.
I’ve been searching high and low for silver balls. They’re just plain silver balls made of sugar that we used to decorate Christmas cookies when I was younger. I’ve tried just about every store in town and still come up with nothing.
Wow, I love this shop! I was so happy when I saw it was in Georgia!
I love my disposable piping bags
sb102302.blogspot.com
it is my spatula! and any sprinkles are awesome!
Ooops – forgot to leave my email:
emilym_77@yahoo.com
Wow! I wish there was something like that by me… its amazing! My favorite thing is my kitchen aid mixer! It is a lifesaver… and i love it! email: marrs1126@aol.com
Oh my God what a wonderful store!!! Thanks for sharing, I’m certainly thankful it’s in Georgia and not here. I love sprinkles for my truffle balls I’ve been making lately…they’re the yummiest! http://www.thisscrappychick.blogspot.com
I just got a roll pat and boy do I love it! It’s made sugar cookie baking enjoyable! I bought my mom and mother in law one for mothers day!
Thanks for showing us the store items. I am so glad they have a website but sure wish I could visit in person. My son teaches 4th grade and I’m planning on making cake pops and cupcakes for his kids. I use Wilton decorator tips now and it is a lot of fun decorating cakes IF you are not under pressure.
bjo2298@yahoo.com
My favorite thing to do is to print out cute little pictures that go with my party or occasion theme and glue toothpicks to them and then just put backing on it. You instantly have your own personalized cupcake toppers!
wow wow and wow! My favorite tool (and I don’t have many) is my mini batter scoop from pampered chef-works great for cookies! my email is krystal_lee_@hotmail.com
My favorite "baking" tool is actually a coffee filter…it's makes my sprinkles behave while I'm dipping cupcakes, or cake balls, or lollipops without making a mess!
I <3 sprinkles and so does my son!!
kukusmile@yahoo.com
I just discovered sparkling sugar and love using it!
http://www.dessertolicious.com
Wow I hope I win, that store looks amazing!!!! thanks
laura@beckcentral.net
I love love love cooking stores. Probably my favorite tools are Wusthof knives!
That place is amazing! It must also be a little overwhelming :)
I am planning on making cakepops for a grad party in a few weeks!
I once looked for fish sprinkle but didn;t find any. I think I could find them at that store!!!
lisaandandre @ yahoo.com
I can’t wait to have my kitchen remodel done so I have more baking room, this store is just so inspirational – just like your blog! Currently my favorite baking tool is my mini cupcake pan, I love to make mini brownies and cupcakes!
I love my bake even strips. It makes the cake come out pretty even so you don’t have to cut too much off the top. Although…those extra scraps do come in handy for making cupcake pops at a later time.
lilrosie519@hotmail.com
wow! I can’t believe a store like that even exists! All I can get in my small town are the standard sprinkles. I don’t really have a favorite baking tool…I don’t really like to bake, just decorate! :)
Marcia
mksmiller@yahoo.com
Oh my! Just looking at your pictures made me feel like a kid in a candy store…LITERALLY!! :) My favorite baking baking tool would probably have to be my cookie cutters. I love all the different shapes they come in. I also LOVE to decorate my cookies with various sprinkles, hint, hint. ;)
-Donna dnavarro1@wi.rr.com
I love cookie cutters, love to buy new ones. I only use them at Christmas time, but I love them.
My favorite decorating item is the spinning cake tray. It’s very handy and makes keeping the sides of the cake even a snap.
Also, I *love* sprinkles. I haven’t found any GREEN hearts yet…but when I do I’m going to need a case of ’em.
I can’t believe all these comments…Oh yes I can, this is Bakerella’s blog. I love using my chocolate melting pot. I am always a sucker for making chocolate candy. HELP! I want to make some cake pops so bad but need to find a reason to make them (hubby and I don’t need the added calories). I just LOVE the sheep ones that were done, so cute. I hope I win because I would like to expand my baking abilities.
cheri.geer@gmail.com
My favorite baking item has to be my muffin tin…I LOVE making cupcakes!!!
cookingmamaof2@yahoo.com
Whoa, I had no idea there were stores like that. Talk about a cake baking heaven! I’d like to get my hands on any kind of sprinkle I can get. How fun! One of my favorite baking tools is my set of 3 cookie scoops. They’re just so handy to get the right size and equal proportions. Thanks for the giveaway!
snbjork@yahoo.com
Wow! I’m so excited to find out this store is in Ga, I have to go there now!
My favorite baking tool is the disposable piping bags.
Oh my! Fab store! I need one of those around here!!!!
My kitchen aid mixer!!!!!!! I use it many times a day!!
I love mixing bowls! Having everything measured out in their own bowl makes baking fun… and having sprinkles would make it even more fun!
My favorite cake tool is the giant cupcake pan – I use it all the time – Easy and beautiful!
Oh man, I love sprinkles, they are my favorite!
I tried these “glitter” sprinkles once on my cake pops though, and they ended up looking like they were sweating =/
I wish I could find a sprinkle aisle like the one you have pictured!!
I love pearl dusts. I use it for fondant (and white chocolate) pearls…but I also dust it on molded fancy thingies that I make out of white chocolate – like lace pieces and such. Such a lovely touch. Gold dust works the same way…but I think I like the pearl better.
Mmmm…My favorite baking tool is my offset spatula. I use it for a number of purposes. That store is amazing! I could get into soooooo much trouble. It’s best that I have no idea where one of those are in my area.
We need a store like that here in Southeast Texas! My favorite baking tool has to be my Wilton tip set – so many options for decorating all of my baked yummies. Also, thanks to you Bakerella…I was blessed to receive my Canon Rebel for Mother's Day! Your photos have re-inspired me with my baking & my photography and all of my family & friends will benefit!juliet.stevenson@sncl.us
I’m so jealous! I want a place like that to shop. The variety is unbelievable! I love it all! I could easily spend hours there just browsing all the cool things for decorating cakes and more.
my hubby is probably glad there isn’t such a store nearby.
Gasp, what a place! Oh, I would be in the poorhouse if I lived anywhere near there!
Definitely my pastry blender – not one of those shoddy, substandard ones with wires that collapse when applied to a stiff dough, but the kind with blades cut into a solid sheet of metal. Not only do I use it for pie crusts and cookies, but it also makes absolutely the perfect texture for egg salad – it chops the whites into uniformly small pieces and breaks the yolks up so that they melt into the mayo (chop eggs first, then add dressing).
Nicole (nbaltmail@gmail.com)
i am a huge pig and hippo fan. if they had a pig or hippo sprinkles, i’d save them FOREVER! :) and pink drageeeess.
Oh I wish we had a store like that here, I’d go into debt! I love my off-set spatula and can’t live with out it!
http://www.monkeylemur.blogspot.com
I love sprinkles… the more the merrier!
Gasp, what a place! Oh, I would be in the poorhouse if I lived anywhere near there!
I love this shop.. I wish I lived close to it… my favourite decorating stuff would be anything to use on fondant and cutters.
I wish we had a store like that here! I just love cookie cutters and any kind of sprinkles. Can’t wait until my grandson is old enough to bake/decorate with me.
a93274@att.net
I am a novice baker so I rely on my kitchen aid!
cookie cutters are my favorite baking item. WOW thanks for the heads up on that store.
Whoa… just wow. I need all of that. My new favorite baking thing is my springform pan. I just bought it the other night to make the Paula Deen cake. You know the one because you made it too! Anyway I made that cake and my mom loves it and I love my pan. The End.

My favorite baking tools are my Kitchen Aid Artisan mixers! I don’t know what I’d do without them!
Sprinkles, sprinkles, sprinkles!!!
Leslie
psl_622@yahoo.com
I am a sprinkle addict. I’ll admit it. LOL. I love making cupcakes for my son’s school. It’s so easy to just put some icing and sprinkles on the. All the kids love them!
I am going to click the link to the site, and I forsee myself being on there for hourssss!
I don’t have what I would consider my favorite baking item… but I’m registered for it! I want a KitchenAid mixer, in the beautiful cinnamon color. I don’t think I should be without it any longer – especially if people keep asking me to bake them cakes!
i love sprinkles!!!
I need/want everything. That store looks awesome. I really need all of those sprinkles. You’re the best Bakerella!
Oh, how I wish there was a store like that near me. Wait…maybe not – I’d be broke!! It looks like so much fun, though! I would love to get my hands on some of those cute little ball sprinkles to make sheep pops :)
opps forgot to leave my email !

sap4691@aol.com
i guess i dont have a FAVORITE. i dont know how to bake very well. but i do love a good spatula. it makes me happy when i can scrape every last bit of batter out of the bowl. and much easier to wash too!
I love rubber spatulas… at home, growing up, we called them “Whipper Whappers”.
http://bennettfamily.blogspot.com
Oh I want to go to this store so bad! I love my little dessert decorator with tips. It makes everything so pretty!
Bakerella you have stumbled on a decorators heaven! Everything looks so pretty, colorful and of course, yummy! Love all the tools, and the cupcake papers…but I do love the luster dust! Oh, and the mulit colored stars, and the marzipan, and….
Shannon ~ slgrauer@aol.com
I have never heard of the place and it is pretty close by. Has anyone ever found paw print sprinkles?
http://www.jasonandmariah.com
My pinch bowls are my favorite baking tool. I use them for all the little stuff and they come in handy. Plus they are cute.
Wow! This post just got my heart racing! I love just looking at this stuff! I’m a big sprinkle lover and I’m already on the lookout for red, white and blue stars for the 4th of July. I’m so crazy, I already bought a red, star shaped platter to put the cupcakes I’m going to make on!
I love baking and have just recently started to take it more seriously and try new things. (Like my very first Chocolate Mousse last week. YUM!) I’m always hunting for themed sprinkles, but can never get my hands on them. I have some halloween ones for THIS year, but that’s it. Also, thanks to my grandmother, my favorite pans are these mini bundt pans I have a set of. I made many a muffin in those before I procured an actual muffin pan. lol
I would love to visit that store! So far, I have only ordered from them online. My favorite baking tool would have to be…..your blog! :) I have gotten so many good ideas from you and people just adore cake pops – especially my 2nd graders! My favorite ACTUAL tool would have to be my palm tree cookie cutter (since I’m from the Palmetto State).
I don’t even know what my favourite tool is cos I’m just starting out!!! I got overexcited just finding different colour muffin cases last week! Sad, eh?!
That’s a mighty impressive baking store! I try to go to the one here in Austin only when I have an actualy legitimate NEED, or I leave with a lot of “nice to haves” – like lots of lovely sprinkles!
My favorite tool? I have two – the preprinted cake cardboard for bringing cakes places – looks so professional and fancy – and my beloved offset spatula, of course.
My email is leubajones@grandecom.net.
WOWZA!!! Talk about drool worthy! Thanks for the fun.
Favorite baking took is my kitchen aid!
I love my 5 inch round cake pans. I love making miniature tier cakes. Perfect for birthdays! :)
O. M. G!!!! I am soooo jealous. I could only DREAM of having a place like that near me. Of course, that would be my husband’s nightmare.
whoa.
I like working with my ice cream scoop for dispensing the correct amount of batter for my cupcakes and nary a spill to clean. SWEET!
Gasp! I’d be spending money in there too! My favorite baking tool is my measuring spoons by Williams Sonoma… though I recently saw some over at Athropologie that made me weak at the knees!
And holy cow- you have some serious comments! LOL!
Best wishes!

That store looks addicting!
My favorite baking accessory would have to be my cake/dessert stand its just so simple yet beautiful and compliments any cake.
shepparc@gmail.com
My favorite “I can NOT live without it” tool is my offset spatula. LOVE IT!! I think back to the days of me trying to frost a cake with a regular knife and shudder!!!
What a FUN store!!!
His,
Mrs. U
I wish I had a store like that near me, of course I would probably have to have a second job to support my addiction to it! I love my offset spatula I have several in different sizes because I can’t make up my mind on which one to use.
How cute are you?? I’m not a pro baker, but I have 6 kids, and I’m constantly looking for cool ideas to make them smile – that’s why I love your blog!! This store looks like so much FUN – I think I would get into trouble there, too! I love any tool that’s multi-functional and makes my job as mom, baker, chef, etc. easier!! I love my Pampered Chef easy accent decorator – it’s great for frosting or cool whip, and for twice baked potatos and deviled eggs! Oh I hope I win – I would love to win some sprinkles and make some cupcakes with my kiddos!
That store is AMAZING! My favorite baking tool is my mixer. It is the hardest working tool in my kitchen!
My favorite baking tool is my long spatula to put icing on cakes smoothly!
Christina
ceastham79@yahoo.com
That is the most amazing store EVER!! My favorite baking tool is my mixer… without it I’d be lost!!
I love cake art website! I found it a few years ago, but the store, oh my I don’t think I would ever want to leave..just hand them over my paycheck!
I love the little silver balls… but one time I’d found pastel colored metallic balls that were amazingly awesome.
I haven’t found them since :-(
http://lovethemandleavethem.blogspot.com
DANGEROUS!!!!
jenzima@aol.com
Oh boy! I wish I lived anywhere near that place! On the other hand.. that could turn out quite… unfortunate.. for my bankaccount. Anyway, my favourite bakingtool is definitely my spatula!
My favorite tool (right now) is my thin spatula. I’ve been using it for frosting cakes and cookies and it works great. I love sprinkles of all kinds–anything glittery makes me happy!
schaeferamy(at)rcn.com
Oops. Forgot to leave my email … cdawnmitchell@gmail.com.
How fun!!!!!
My fave baking tool would DEFINITELY have to be my Kitchen Aid stand mixer!!! :)
I could go crazy in that store. Love baking. My favorite tool is, Oh how can I pick one, probably a spoonuala type spatula.
ldstowe@hotmail.com
I can just see myself spending hours and hours there…my favourite tool is my rotating cake stand (for decorating).
arobertson{at}briercrest.ca
that is such a fun place! i would love any BOY sprinkles. like spiderman, batman, power rangers… anything that would make my boy’s little hearts and eyes about pop out!! love it!
amy.chisum@ttu.edu or http://www.vintagecowgirl.blogspot.com
I loved all the pictures! This puts my local party supply store to SHAME!
aspenchick@msn.com
De-lurking to enter for sprinkles! I have similar problems at my party store…and on-line! My main weaknesses are cupcake papers and cookie cutters. I kept buying the same cookie cutters so I made a list. My BF suggested I keep it on my ipod so now I can check before I buy. But there are always ones I don’t have yet! Love your blog and your happy enthusiasm!
My favorite “sprinkles” are really dragees. The little silver ones are so elegant… but I love the colored dragees too!!!
My fav baking tool is my ofset spatula. I know, I know…boring!! I also have a sprinkles addiction. They are just comforting somehow!!
Brandi
lawyer180@yahoo.com
Sprinkles make everything better! I think my favorite baking tool is my batter scoop. That way all of the cupcakes come out the same size!
I would have to say my mixer. My aunt gave it to me as a wedding present 13 years ago and it is just like the one she taught me to bake with when I was little. Love it!
My pastry bags and piping tips! I love drawing crazy designs on cookies and cupcakes.
I love the tinted fondant, too. Tinting fondant is not very much fun!
I love cookie cutters! I could buy tons and play around with them!
darrenkarenm at msn dot com
I used my new Wilton bundt pan I received as a wedding gift this weekend. It made an awesomely beautiful cake for my mother’s day lunch! Everyone was impressed!
My favorite baking tool is my sheet cake pans. I love them!!!
holy moly! If there was a store like this near me, I would be at least 100lbs heavier and living in a cardboard box on the street corner with my sprinkles! My favorite baking tools are my cookie cutters…so much fun to cut out all the shapes.

Oh wow! I’m going to have to move to GA just to go to that store. How fun! The best cake store we have here is Michaels (HA!). My favorite baking tool is tip 104 because you can make so many beautiful flowers with it!
My favorite baking “tool” is my kitchenaid stand mixer! Who know one thing could provide so much happiness?? :D
WOW! I am headed to Cake Art… TOMORROW. Literally! I’m going! Your post turned my fascination into an obsession!!!
My favorite baking item is actually the neon color dye gels that they sell at any local grocery store. I use them to dye frosting for my cupcakes and then stack my crazy color cupcakes into a cupcake CAKE. They’re adorable! Sometimes I find matching MnMs or candies to make polka dots on the tops of the cupcakes! SO FUN!
Alyzimbardi@yahoo.com
That store looks like so much fun. I would go crazy in there myself. My favorite baking item is my crown muffin pan. I like how it makes my muffins look like they may have come from a real bakery.
I love sprinkles. Count me in.
OK so the next time I’m in Atlanta I’m going to have to make a detour to this store, it looks AMAZING!!!
My favorite is either my batter scoop which I use all the time or my offset spatula (well all of them ;)) They make icing cakes SOOO much easier even though my husband laughs at them because they look broken in his eyes ;)
I’m running low on fun sprinkles and I’m having a hard time finding them in town since our main bake shop closed :-(

What an amazing store! I love my off set spatula, and sprinkles too! My favorite sprinkles are whatever makes my kids happy!
Wow, you’re so lucky to have such a great store nearby. I’m jealous. The tiny peanut butter cups at Trader Joe’s are some of my favorite baking add-ins. Isn’t everything just a little bit yummier with some chocolate and peanut butter?

I love this store! I am planning a trip very soon.
The tool I can not live with out is my bowl scraper, an absolute must in the kitchen!
This is the holy grail of sprinkle land!! My small off set spatula makes frosting easy!

Love your blog and sprinkles. I have become an avid cake pop maker and my sprinkle obsession is becoming dangerous. Thanks for all the ideas!
Awww I need to travel there, Or they could have a store in Canada? damn! My favourite thing is cookie cutters. Its a bad bad addiction.

Did my first post about the cupcake pops!
I love your blog and love sprinkles. I have become an expierenced cake pop maker and am getting very into these spinkles. It’s almost dangerous! Thanks for all the ideas.
I know it sounds silly after this amazing post, but my favorite thing in the world is simply my heart shaped cookie cutter. I use it for everything–cookies, pie crust cut outs, pancakes, toast, eggs…I love it!!
Where has this store been all my life? It looks like a baker’s dream! My favorite baking tool has got to be my Kitchen Aid. I love any kind of unique sprinkles. I’m always looking.

I’m all about different cookie cutters.
Oh jeeze, that luster dust is awesome. I’m gonna go ahead and pre-emptively call it my favorite decorating tool, since I’m lusting (ha!) for it so bad. I want some sprinkles in crazy bright spring colors.
I can’t live with out my parchment paper, a silly tool but an essential in my kitchen.

My now that is quite a fun store. I would have to say my fav is my kitchen aid mixer and the sprinkles I would die for is a prince frog…tell me you did not see them??? LOL

I have the plastic cake stud! He’s been on top of a couple cakes. Usually found tanning under my Aerogarden, cake stud is now lounging in a bowl of oranges. My favorite baking item has to be my plain ol’ star tips. Can’t live without them. They even jazz up hors d’oeuvres.
So my favorite thing are the cake stands! Got a beautiful one from my sister for my wedding this past winter, and then with some gift card monies got an adorable one from Crate and Barrel. My husband is so kind to let me indulge.

OH MY is all i can mutter. i bet you were in heaven there.. i can't even begin to think of what i would do with 20 containers of sprinkles ! lol.
i think my favourite tool is the silicone spatulas.. i could cook all day & never melt one !
Hell yes, I will leave a comment. Look at those sprinkles! I need to find that store near me ASAP.

Thanks for the lovely blogging!
I’ve never seen a store with so much baking stuff under one roof! WOW – and I LOVE SPRINKLES!
Wow, I’m so jealous of you living near such a cool store!
My favorite kitchen implement is the avacado slicer, although that’s not really a baking thing. I think my favorite baking tool is my mom’s super powerful mixer, which can mix cold stick butter without thinking twice!
You are a genius! Finally people look forward to me bringing a dessert to family functions, rather than trying to guess what in the heck it is that I brought. My favorite tool has got to be my kitchen timer. I know, super simple, but I get too distracted too easily. It keeps me on track without having to start all over because everything is burned. Thanks for all the great ideas. I really hope you picked out some butterfly sprinkles for me!
Holy Sprinkles Cake Woman! I could do some damage!
My favourite decorating item are sprinkles and we dont have pretty ones here en argentina :( we just have the simple ones the sticks they are so boring I would love some pink hearts sprinkles to put on my cupcakes.
sofiawill@hotmail.com
My husband would ban me from that store. lol He’d have to.
I’m a huge fan of tips, any kind of tips. I love how you can change the look of any cake/cupcake just by changing the tips.
I would have to say an good ice cream scoop to make evenly shaped cookies! That and cookie cutters! It makes the baking life so much more enjoyable!

I love my Pampered Chef Easy Accent Decorator. It has many uses and is fun and easy to use!
that store must be the coolest!! Wish we had one around here. My favorite tool is my set of piping tools. But, after looking at CakeArt’s selection, I’m thinking I need some more!
I love my Mickey Mouse sprinkles. I got them on Ebay and have used them for my son’s 2nd birthday cake and cupcakes. Most recently I used them on the cake pops my mom and I made for his 3rd birthday.
yettiebug@earthlink.net
Whoa! There’s no place like that up here and that’s probably a good thing for my pocketbook. I love my pyrex measuring cups and Pampered Chef silicone spatulas.
I love sprinkles and can always use more!
I love my batter scoop!! I want some sprinkles!!!
lilchic54@yahoo.com
I’m throwing in my name for the contest! My favorite decorating tool is the piping bag and I love using them for more than just frosting. (I recently made a meatloaf cake and used a bag without the tip for mashed potatoes!) I’m also incredibly jealous that you have a cake art store so close to you. I am reduced to ordering online and looking in craft stores. Boo.
I am just starting to decorate… but my favorite decorations are any colorful sprinkles…but butterfly sprinkles are the best!!!
boardinprincesa@att.net
I’m constantly disappointed by UK sprinkles compared to what you find. I’d love to find deep purple and/or gold sprinkles so I can make wedding themed cake pops.
Wow, that store is amazing! It sounds like you are addicted to sprinkles like I used to be addicted to scrapbook supplies! At least I’ve gotten out of the habit of BUYING them, I just can’t seem to part with the stuff I have (and don’t use) though.
Anyway, my favorite baking item lately is my stoneware cookies sheets. Thanks for entering me! My email is tonaly at gmail dot com.
hahahaha you sound like meeeee!!! i would walk in and just rush like a madman from one side of the store to another.
i actually love the candy coated chocolate chips. fun colors, good for noses on cake pops and sprinkles on cupcakes :D
flamegoddess65@aol.com
I love to use the 6inch circle pan for mini cakes. I think a tall small cake is fun to look at rather your standard 8 or 9 inch cake. I also love the large dot sprinkles
I love my disposable decorating bags for my cakes and cupcakes. They are wonderful!!
heb_11_1@hotmail.com
That looks like a store that would get me into some serious trouble! I love my cookie cutters, but used for brownies. I can’t stop thinking about that store! Wish I had one near me.
Love the sprinkles!
Life is meant to be covered in sprinkles…can you ever have enough?
http://momza.blogspot.com
I would go nuts if I walked into that store!!
My favorite baking tool is a simple piping bag,
also my computer and printer….I print out a lot of images I create on photoshop to personalize my cakes. For example my friends Birthday was on St. Patty’s so I photoshopped her face on little leprechaun bodies and it was a huge hit!!
siobhan.gavagan@gmail.com
I love sprinkles too! I buy them every time I am in the dollar section at Target. I’m like you, I don’t use them often, but I sure do love having them around!
My favorite baking tool is my mini cookie scoop. It’s so much easier to make cookies with it than trying to scoop out dough with two spoons.
My favorite tool is my patience, which I need a lot of when I’m trying to make perfect cupcake pops and I have two small children clawing their way up my legs. :o)
Sprinkles are actually my favorite! I love that there’s so many to choose from and that you can find themed ones for practically anything!
Oh my!!! Look at all those sprinkles!! How fun would that be! My favorite baking tool is my Pampered Chef cookie sheet probably!

That looks like a dangerous store! I love my pampered chef small metal spatula, perfect for frosting cupcakes.

I love sprinkles! Wished I lived by that store!

My favorite item is my Cupcake Courier. I can transport all the cupcakes for my daughters’ classes in one container and know that they will arrive looking the same as they did when I left home. And after putting all that time, attention and love into decorating them for the kids I don’t like having to try to fix the ones that decided to flip on their side.

What an awesome store! I’m a cupcake liner and sprinkles “HORDER”! My favorite gadget is my KitchenAid stand mixer.

Love sprinkles and the pretty colors! My favorite baking tools are the spatulas used to coat cupcakes. Yummy!
Love the visuals! My fav are my leaf shaped cookie cutters. I would love to find bachelor/bachelorette sprinkles. lol. ;-)

I love your site! I made Paula Deen’s flourless chocolate cake last week and it was a HUGE success!
I really enjoy my springform pan for cheesecakes and other cakes. It’s currently in storage, but hopefully will be coming back to me soon!
