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.

I wish there was a store like that in San Francisco. I would go crazy.
This is a Red Letter Day!!! I am so very excited to see this post…I live in Marietta and for years now I have been without a candy making shop since the one in Marietta closed….I never knew about this shop…all the times I Googled and I never saw it…I would drive all the way up to Buford to a crappy little store but it was better then nothing….So THANK YOU!!!!!!
I could spend a week in there! Why don’t we have stores like that where I live? Boo hooooooooo…
favorite/what i want more of is a mini batter scoop for regular sized cupcakes !
dylanmargaret@gmail.com
I just wanted to comment anyways….even though the contest expired Because YOU’VE NEVER USED MARZIPAN!!!!!!! That’s the best yummiest stuff in the whole wide world. I don’t comment here often and I don’t even know if you read your comments or not but I tell you it’s the BOMB! you’ll love it. Not only that you can chocolate dip it and eat that yummy goodness too. I promise once you start you won’t go back!
I wish I had that big of a supply store here. WOW! Amazing.
oh wow!! They need to open one of those in Colorado. I have nowhere to get supplies and end up ordering off the internet all the time.
I love premade icing roses! they make any cake look gorgeous!mjf926 at hotmail dot com
Where is this store? Oh My God- every town should have one close by!
Oh my! *So jealous* No access to such great stores here :( I have to get my CK stuff online.
Oh! I want! I want!
But then i will have to order from the internet. so far as i know we dont have a store like that in Sweden :(
I would very seriously consider moving from New York all the way to Georgia just so I could be near that store.
I think I just drooled all over my husbands computer.
Anyone know of a store like that in the Syracuse, NY area??
I am just writing to tell you that I have the same store HERE in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. Country Kitchen Sweetart! I have never in my life heard someone explain how they feel when they walk in to the store, like I feel when I do myself. I get soooo excited I can hardly stand it. I love the clearance corner with seasonal discontinued items. However I have to agree with you that the pans are the BEST! If you don’t know already I would love to suggest to you what I get the MOST comments on. You think you have a hard time deciding on sprinkles? Check this stuff out. It’s called disco dust. It comes in EVERY COLOR OF THE RAINBOW! It costs $4.00 for the tiniest pot of it. But there is nothing prettier than the white disco dust on plain white buttercream. Absolutely the most beautiful thing I have ever seen! Let me know how you like it!
Btw…thank you for the GREAT posts. Love reading them, and your photos are fantastic!
I almost swooned looking at those pictures! I’m jealous I think.
My current favorite baking/decorating tool are my Wilton featherweight decorating bags. I’m by no means a great decorator, but these make icing cakes and cupcakes so easy and they clean up in a snap!
Hi there! I nominated you for an award on my blog! :)
http://lolly-tots.blogspot.com/2009/05/my-first-blog-award.html
if you want you can pass it along to some of your favorite blogs as well :)
Wow! My choices for cake stuff are Michael$$$ or the Bulk Barn. Not exactly a lot of choice. My friends and always wondered where you got all your supplies… and now I know! I’m so jealous!
Hey! Am from Singapore and i stumbled upon your site. I am so in love with all your bakings and yes, i envy the store you went to with all those assorted sprinklers found. Unlike here in Singapore, such sprinklers or even some of the cookies tools are limited.
And yes, you inspired me to bake!
OMG I wish we had a store like this where I live. I just died and went to heaven with this post. Too bad I missed the giveaway.
You are evil! The shops here have at most three kinds of pans and two types of chocolate sprinkles and you go ahead and post this ^_^
If I dream of cookies and colored fondant tonight I’ll blame it on you :)
WOW!
Hi Bakerella!
I made cake pops over the weekend and wanted to thank you for all the wonderful ideas you always share with us
http://bakingatmidnight.blogspot.com/2009/05/birthday-cake-pops.html
Have a great day!!!!
Wow! That must have been such a fun contest! I missed it, but I’ve found your site. And the sprinkles make me really happy anyway. :)
This store puts my local spot on 23rd St. in Manhattan to absolute and utter shame. Shame I tell you!
Cake Art rocks! Every time I go, I have to start at one end and walk all the aisles even if I just go for cake boxes. It’s the best!
My favorite tool would have to be my offset spatula. I use the small one because I feel like I have better control. I even use it to frost big cakes.
Oh man…..see what I get for not checking this weekend. I missed out on a sprinkles. That store looks like so much fun and so much trouble.
I’m a big fan of sprinkles. And luster dust.
OMG….I am in Cake heaven!!! Love it!!
I LOVE cupcake wrappers!
I know the contest is over but i just have to say I’m so bummed
i never knew that place was there. i used to live in Tucker!!!
I know I’m too late for the contest, but OMG that store is AMAZING. Beats the pants off Michaels and AC Moore. Probably a good thing it’s far away from me. I would have to build an addition on my house if I bought any more sprinkles.
Insane! I got all hyper just looking st the pics! As for favorite baking tool…(aside from my hands) I’d say it is the silicone spatula. It has changed my world!
:) Kim
ulmer.kim@gmail.com
Hey All! Time’s up. The winner is Comment #936. Congrats Cam!
Now I have to get back to reading all about your favorite tools. I’m fascinated.
Thanks for playing!
i love using my rubber spatula! it’s so much fun seeing all the dough and mixtures getting swept in one fluid motion! i remember when you posted about brown cupcake cases being fairly hard to find, i was slightly smug (sorry) at having found 100 for less than a pound at our local supermarket. but wow, seriously, that cake art shop is amazing!! i’ve never seen a cake decorating shop bigger than a tiny room before! i wish we had stuff like that in uk! c:
I’m attempting to stack and carvy my own giant cupcake cake for my daughter’s 1st birthday soon – sprinkles would be nice!
wiat.. is it too late? 6pm eastern?
OMG.. I about cried tears of happiness looking at those pictures!
my NEWEST favorite tool is actually a hole-punch, cause I’ve been experimenting with making my own shaped sprinkles.
but outside of that… gotta be my tips. I pipe cookies like a crazy woman… I love my decorating tips.
I like my spatula!
i wish i had a store near me like that! my fa baking tool is the spatula!
My favorite decorating item is definitely my oreo cookies. I always crush them in the food processor and mix it with the frosting…it not only makes cupcakes/cakes look pretty…but it tastes super delicious too!
http://sunshinekong.blogspot.com
ahnxyoung@yahoo.com
Fabulous store…wow!!! I would never come out! I have to say that my favorite baking tool is a super old hand-me-down tips kit with reuseable bag. I’ve bought a newer kit but I always venture back to my old…20 some year old set!
VL from bvlm@rogers.com
OMG! Sprinkle me in AWE! Pick a favorite? I’m in Sprinkle Nirvana! I like this one and that one, oh yea…that one too…and the one beside it, and oh, don’t forget the one on top of it and the pink one and the pretty one and…oh stop me! Just give me them all! ;-)
That place is incredible! I love my collection of icing tips. Anything is possible with them :)
i am late posting as i was at work but i love everything there is to love about baking from the little paper cups to the mini cheesecake pans i use all the time… baking is my solace and refuge and i read your blog al the time and would love to know where a store like that in my area is..
I’m so not ever allowed in that store. I would bankrupt myself. As far as tools go, I love a good rotating cake stand. And spatulas in 3 sizes. I miss some of the stores in the US for the cute crafty stuff. The town I’m living in in Australia doesn’t have the selection and the goods are expensive.
I loved reading your comments! We may be baking soulmates; I often buy pretty cooking things just because I like to have them. Need schmeed… ;-) My husband coaches football and now my son plays, so I would definitely love to have some football helmet and f’ball sprinkles.
lgodziuk@mcsnet.ca
I am completely out of sprinkles. I host a Gingerbread house making day in December every year. I also do a cookie swap and have a project for everyone to do. This year used up my sprinkles and I need more! I’d love a new sprinkle collection for all the fun things you make me want to do!
LOVE THAT STORE!!! My fav tool is my icing spatula thing-ey (yeah, I’m a newbie! LOL!)
tnwoodworking@hughes.net
wouldn’t it be fun if there were sprinkles shaped like little shirts and pants? those would be darling.
I love sprinkles the best, too! And I am so jealous you live near such an awesome store.
missmarabelle@yahoo.com
I think one of the coolest baking items I have is an antique bundt cake pan that my Grandpa gave me. The shape of the pan is square, with a round center hole. It makes a really retro-slash-futuristic-looking cake that I think is awesome.
Oooh, OOHH! ME!
I sure hope I made the time limit on this one being on the West Coast… I use tons of green shamrock sprinkles because my son attends Clover Ave. Elementary.
I love my cookie scoops from King Arthur Flour- I have a tiny one and a larger one, not a giant one though.
I think it’s past the time but I had to comment. I’m drooling looking at all of those sprinkles! I wish I could find a place like that by me!
I really have just starting baking so I don’t have anything special except for the sprinkles at the grocery store. I love everything. I wish we had a store like that in my town.
Love, Love, Love my KitchenAid Stand Mixer and Cuisinart Food Processor. My favorite tool(s) however, are my handy, dandy, assortment of pastry tips. They are magical and make me feel like the fairy godmother of all things bakery.
I get a kick out of seeing the pleasant smile one gets whenever they receive one of my treats. They don’t know whether to save it for a special occasion or devour it right before my eyes! LOL
Wish I can go there too, but I’m all the way across the country.
Tootles!
I want a store like that…i’m so jealous
I would love some cowboy/western sprinkles!
OMGoodness, all those sprinkles *swoon* Oh how I love sprinkles, I have egg shaped ones for Easter :) My favorite baking tool is a melon baller. You know, the scoopie thing you use to make all your cookies the same size?! I am sure it has an official title, but at my house it is the melon baller.
WOW! I love all those sprinkles! Since I love to decorate with them, they would be my favorite thing to bake with!
wow I want that store by me where is it?
Wow -I was getting excited just looking at the pictures – Don’t have anything like that here in Tulsa, but would take a day or 2 to shop there…. Might be easier to just tell them send me One of EVERYTHINGQ!
I love my Wilton star tip – I use it on just about every cupcake that I make! It’s great for making small stars, flowers, or even scales on an alligator :)
Gosh, I almost had a heart attack with this post! I can’t believe so much lovliness exists in one place. Thank you for bringing this wonderful store and website to our attention. Different and unique sprinkles are my weakness and off-set spatula’s are my favorite and yet most essential baking tool. I can’t do do decent icing without it.
Aloha!
I wish there was a store like that around where I live! Maybe there is… I see a Google search in my future :) I cannot live without my small off-set spatula.
And yay! for sprinkles!
I would love some horsey themed sprinkles, perfect for barn parties. My favorite baking tool is by far the offset spatula, i have three, small, medium and large and can’t imagine frosting anything without them.
Food coloring! If you have that, you can make everything easier… and more colorful! kijinchan@yahoo.com
Definitely my covered glass batter bowl and an assortment of wooden spoons and spatulas.
i LOVE fun shaped sprinkles. stars and hearts and teddy bears just make me happy. :)
-Katie
kdurden@gmail.com
One of my favorite baking tools is my spoonula. Great to scrape and scoop batter from my mixing bowl. What a fun store! I could spend hours upon hours there. :-D
cathielojkovic@yahoo.com
Oh man – I am so jealous of that store – I wish we had something like that here :(
I think my favourite baking tool would have to be my KitchenAid – I love her :)
i forgot to put my email :( mei_elshamy@hotmail.com
That cake store looks about 100 times bigger than my local cake store :( (however mine is all pretty and frilly & pink!) I couldn't live without powdered food colouring..I hate faffing about with the liquid kind
I wish I had such a cake store near me. It’s amazing. I must confess I have an extreme love for packaging like boxes etc. Something about a cake or cupcake in a cute container is just joy :D
Oh. My. Goodness! I’m supposed to be able to make a sane comment after those pictures left me so speechless? I like all the usuals, but I’m also pretty non-standard and use things like blow driers, dehumidifiers and food dehydrators. Whatever works!
i wish i could name my fave tool but i really don’t have one – i have a mom that makes fantastic things though – so i guess she’s my fave. i do have a thing for sprinkles, sadly i don’t make anything fab with them – i put them on my vanilla ice cream!
My favorite would have to be a cookie scoop… makes it a lot easier to have perfectly proportional and round cookies! :)
My favorite baking item has to be colored sanding sugars!! They are so beautiful and make everything sparkle…I love sparkle :) We have a store like that ’round these parts…called Country Kitchen. They are online, too, so you might have heard of them? It reminds me a lot of the store you took pictures of and I feel the same way when I go there!
What a cool store. I’d have to take a huge time slot to let my self wander about in that store. I love it.
My favortie baking tool would have to be cookie cutters. Such fun shapes out there, and my little ones like to help out.
almostjello.blogspot.com
I need to find a store like this. Would be completely over stimulated! TOOLS? I like my silpat, and also my mini tin. I love one-bite muffins/brownies!
kellmck8@msn.com
That is food porn! OMG! I’ve never seen anything like that.
I love my Wilton comfort grip cookie cutters!! The large size makes them great for rice krispie treats as well! I’d love some boyish sprinkles!
http://www.alwayswantingmoore.blogspot.com
Ooo, sprinkles! For my baby brothers 2nd b-day I wanted some yellow ducky sprinkles for cupcakes.
My fav baking tool? I really love batter scoops. Their perfect for making cookies, cupcakes, and muffins.
That store looks AWESOME!
forhisglorytooATcomcastDOTnet
I never knew all these goodies existed…I must learn to bake now!
My daughter would KILL for sprinkles mixed with black, pink and white…her dance team colors.
Wow I wish there was a shop like that near me – it looks amazing!! Probably better for my bank balance that there isn't though as I could easily spend a fortune LOL.
I'm quite new to baking so don't have much in the way of equipment yet but I'm going to go & buy some sprinkles after reading this – I need to make a really bright & pretty cake now!
What a store!! I would love to visit it someday, only my husband’s wallet would probably feel like it was taken advantage of. ha
My favorite decorating item would have to be plain old tips. You can just about do anything with them.
I love using different frosting tips or even cute cupcake foil to keep things cute and decorated!
I think I may too late for the contest but that place looks amazing.
I love using fondant. I made a batch of the marshmallow fondant and have made numerous things with it.
I want to go to cake art!
I love my Adjust-a-cup! Srsly the best tool for a small batcher like me!
I love that store!! Like you, I would go crazy in there!
My favorite tool is my OXO measuring cup where you can see the measurement by looking into the cup as well as the side.
As for sprinkles, I love them all!
cookienurse@gmail.com
Oh, man – am I eligible, all the way in England?
Anyway, my favourite baking tool is the humble cookie cutter – only my brother keeps pinching mine to make egg muffins.
silverphyrbyrd@yahoo.co.uk
Marzipan is wonderful! In the UK, our traditional wedding cakes and Christmas cakes are … dare I mention the name … fruit cakes. Delicious!! After they sit around for a few weeks, being “fed” brandy, a layer of marzipan goes on top, then Royal icing (dries very hard) or fondant goes next, with flowers etc. on top of that.
Hmm. It’s making me homesick.
OMG That store is the bomb…we don’t have anything like that here ~~ luckily!! I can’t live without my off-set spatu-ler….love it!!
Caonni
cambelkids@aol.com
My spatula for frosting cakes.
Whoa thats alot of sprinkles :D. I like all kinda sprinkles! Love colorful ones :D. I wish they made care bear ones. *Crosses fingers*
I love that store, wish there was one close to me. *sigh* My life was changed when I discovered offset spatulas, so I guess this is my favorite. : )
Oops, forgot my email: anndeehi@gmail.com
I have hunted all over the valley where I live looking for the large white sprinkles to make the cute little lamb cake pops you posted. I NEED to visit this store of yours!
I love my cookie scoop.
kalugin4@sbcglobal.net
i absolutely love this store. if only we had anything remotely like this in my area!!!! Hobby lobby and Michaels are IT!!!! please feel sorry for me and include me in this wonderful giveaway!!!!
Oh I hope I’m not too late! I have no idea if we have a store like this here. I think I might need to check!!
freestylescrapping.blogspot.com
awesome store. My favorite gadget right now is this blog! I have gotten so many great ideas. Thanks
My offset spatula!
I love sprinkles– all sprinkles. I do not discriminate. To me, sprinkles=happiness!
Never ever ever let me enter this shop, created by the devil, I’d either never come out of it or come out in debt :O
I think my favorite tool is definitely my long handled spatula to frost a cake all the way around without messing it up!
Wow! So glad I am not close to that store or I would go broke! My favorite baking tool is my offset spatula. So many uses, so little time:)
Courtney
wow – I would be like a kid in a candy store… but I guess that’s the point, right?
I couldn’t live without my Kitchen Aid stand mixer. It makes everything easier.
I love piping bags and cool tips for decorating…unfortunately most of my baking stuff got lost in the move! :( :( :(
crazykittendance AT gmail DOT com
I have been looking for a store like that up here in New Jersey, but sadly theres nothing. I have been looking for Pastel Nonpareils, I finally found a small jar of them at a craft store and I made cupcake pops over this weekend and they look so cute! But now that I want them to be a staple in my sprinkle/ cupcake pop supply cabinet…they don’t have them anymore! Aparently they were for “EASTER”. Well HELLO some people like pastel’s all year round not just around Easter! HEHE! =) anyway Bakerella.. LOVE YOU!!!!!!

ohhellocupcake@gmail.com
that store looks so fun! btw i love your blog, it’s inspired me to bake, and your stuff is so good! my husband gets excited when he sees me reading your blog cuz he knows he’s gonna get some good stuff pretty soon!
Sarah, handygirl698@yahoo.com
That store is positively amazing! I am a huge sprinkle lover but can never find any interesting ones around my town.
As for baking, I can’t live without my mini scoop or my mixer. Godsends!
Love your blog!
I could see how that store could be so addicting….I only have a Michaels to run to and it never does itself justice. In dire need of SPRINKLES to play with :)
I would absolutely love to spend a day in this store with an open ended credit card! It is nice to dream…:)
Love the flower sprinkles! Wish I could get stuff like that around here!
OMIGOSH! I would love to walk through that store. I love looking at all the different gadgets. Such fun!
I’m too late for the giveaway, but my favorite baking tool is (don’t laugh) a set of little bowls to hold ingredients in. I have a set in pink and another in a hot yellow. And I have cake pans that are 3 inches deep! This post lured me out of lurking: I LOVE gadgets and sprinkles and all kinds of doohickeys!!!!
It’s 4pm here so I hope I get in before the deadline, you didn’t specify time zone ;)
I must say thank you for sending me to that site, my wallet on the other hand does not, my favorite baking item has to be the mini pans, they are just so cute and come in so many shapes. Also very handy!
I absolutely could not live without my cookie cutters. I use them for everything. I wonder how cake pops flattened, then cut out with large cookie cutters would be? Of course dunked in candy coating afterwards. I want to try!
Tanya
fanfare23@yahoo.com
I’m not sure if I made the deadline.
My favorite equipment is my bocsh mixer and sprinkles always make me smile.
luckyslady113 at gmail.com
I love your cupcake balls…too cute!
I just bought some edible flowers when I was back in Malaysia – I’ve never seen similar ones here – for my next set of cupcakes…right now, those are my favorite things in my baking cupboard!
I come from Finland and I wish we had that store here!!! I might need to move to USA. ;)
Love sprinkles, I just don’t have enough them. I like to use them on cakes and cupcakes too. My favourite baking tool is my bunny shaped cookie cutter. I love bunnies. :)
That store looks like a wonderland of sorts….akardal@gmail.com
I love my stoneware baking pans! They’re the bomb!
Marianne
zoomer1@com-pair.net
Oh my goodness. That store is fabulous. I am so jealous that you can walk in and shop there.
I love your blog.
Oh man! I love sprinkles! My favorites are the little silver balls- bigger than nonpareils, and, depending on what you believe, may or may not be edible. Delicious!
I want a shop like that by my house!
I love my pie birdy that lets the steam out of my deeeeeep dish apple pies. Not only is it useful, it is adorable.
jessica@zevion.com
I always need sprinkles!!! I love my Wilton heart shaped pan! Hearts are always fun!
I love your site, cake stores, sprinkles, and my super-sized air-bake cookie sheet. stoutinelsalvador@hotmail.com
So hard to choose! Probably my cookie cutters. Where in the world can I find a store like this?! WOW.
I live in Maritta and have gone to Cake Art. They have a huge selection of goodies to choose from. You have to be careful because some of their items are a bit pricy. I love their canyd molds and SPRINKLES!
This is like Home Depot for bakers! lol I would love to get my hands on the pre-colored fondant! I love the finished product but coloring it myself turns my table various colors!
http://candyapplephoto.blogspot.com/
I’m just a beginner, so I only have basics…but I would love to have some sprinkles! :)
Kim Waggoner
W8k@aol.com
Awesome!!! Sprinkles… I loved me some sprinkles I have a cupcake party coming up for my daughter’s 3rd birthday!
I could get lost in a place like that. I am barely out of the grocery aisle…a wonderful place such as this may be too advanced for me. I would love it if they had sprinkles shaped like cupcakes.
This store looks amazing!!!!!
I wish it was here in Edmonton.
My fav tool is my gumpaste tools!!!
And I can’t find the rainbow chips you use for cake pops *sigh*, they are ever so elusive.
I love using scalpels on fondant… making precise geometric patterns. It makes everything fancier!
I got a cookie press for christmas and I love it!
Fun! My favorite are cookie cutters probably…so many shapes and sizes!
ttupinker@yahoo.com
I wish this store was in Edmonton!! It’s amazing!!!!
I can’t find the chips you use for the cake pops… they are ever so elusive… it’s my current mission in life to find those little guys! They’re not sprinkles, but it’s my obsession lately!
I really love my gumpaste tools…. they’re neato.
My hands are my favourite baking tools. However, my absolute favourite thing to do is make cupcakes with my daughter. We have Cupcake Day once a week. She is quite the little baker! :)
This store makes me giddy. I’m sad I have no reason to visit Georgia anymore.
I’m not sure I have a favorite decorating item but I sure would like an offset spatula.
I love all aspects of it since I’ve been reading your site. I am in heaven just reading this post…if I won the lottery I would go to this store ASAP and buy all the stuff you have shown!!!! I am the same way with school supplies…weird. But I love it all, so its hard to pick. laneysmom@hotmail.com
My three perfect cake pans are my favorite cake baking tools!
I love decorative cupcake holders!! This store looks amazing! aes319@gmail.com
The Wilton Giant Cupcake Pan is always a big hit. Any kind of cake or quickbread you could dream of goes perfectly. I’ve filled it with ice cream, made intriguing carrot-zucchini cake, but almost best of all is the chocolate chip pound cake recipe that came with the pan.
Also, it is the most adorable cake in the world to top with fun sprinkles!
aphidw0man@yahoo.com, or my blogs are keelis.wordpress.com and kellybaron.wordpress.com
I just got my first off set spatula today so it will be my favorite!
I love my pink spatula! It just makes baking more fun:)
mjlapic@gmail.com
OH MY GOSH!!! I would love to GO there!!! It’s like heaven to a cake decorator!! I wish there was a store like that around here. :( I’m in the North of Boston area! You are So lucky to be able to just go to the store. I have to order just about everything online.
DOIPC…that means doubled over in pain crying! LOL
I love fondant! But I’m not fond-ant eating it. It’s so fun to work with. And sure wish I had a very long flat spatula. Guess I’ll go order from that great store!
oh, my favorite tool is probably my mini cookie cutters!
Thanks for a “tour” of the wonderful store! What fun you must have when you go. I love sprinkles, too! Can’t ever have too many! I like to put sprinkles on the cookies that I make.

I love using the little gold and silver dragees..I find them on Amazon.com-they are illegal in some states and I don’t know why?? But, around Christmas time I love making sugar cookies withe glittery sprinkles and dragees..absolutely beautiful!!
Oh I love sprinkles! Me me me!
where do i even begin? My patience is probably my favorite decorating tool! :)
I need, i need…
thanks for the chance!

looks like a greg store! I love my silicone cupcakes cups. That or my mini batter scoop. It’s a toss-up!

Not sure what time zone we are going in but my favorite baking tool is my mini cupcake pans!!
I LOVE that store already! My cake store isn’t quite as sprinkle diverse ;) I love disposable bags… they are the best! Thanks for all the fun you share!
Why don’t they have a store like that near me? My favorite baking tool? I’d have to say are my silicone spatulas… I think I would love an offset spatula, but I don’t own one of those… I also wish I could find silver dragees in CA..

Wow! That looks like an amazing place! I wonder how far it is from Jacksonville, FL? I would love to visit! My favorite tool is a flexible metal spatula that I use to remove my baked cookies when they come out of the oven! Martha uses one too! Carla G.
I don’t have, but would love a turntable for decorating my cakes.

Okay, my husband eyes roll back into his head when he walks into a store and is surrounded by huge televisions (Costco, Best Buy) and I could never understand why…. UNTIL NOW!!! Holly Cow what I would give to discover a store like that in my part of the woods. But thanks to you I have discovered a love for baking that I never knew was there. And the best part of your influence, I’ve do most of my baking with my 4 year old daughter. We’ve discovered a wonderful world together. Thank you for that but boy, sprinkles would be great too. ;)

Am I too late?
Holy smokes! Over 3k of comments! I remember when your blog was just starting out! I’m so excited for you!
Me, I can’t seem to find those little silver balls. My Grandmother used to decorate our cakes with them when i was a child.
What an awesome store… Man, I’m just a SUCKER for any sprinkles… you never know when you’ll need them!!
looove my handy dandy hand held mixer!
No matter how hard I work on a dessert I end up screwing it up when I try to take it out of the pan. That all changed when I found the mini-spatula. It’s awesome! (Sorry, I get excited over the little stuff)
The best tool is wax paper – without it, the plate would get all messy, especially with me making it!
I love those little BB-like silver sprinkles they used to make. I found some at an estate sale a month ago and HAD to have them!
Ok! On my side of the world it is still 3:15. My favorite tool has to be my hands. My friend and I recently created your cake pops and must admit that they were just too cute. Bake on Bakerlla!
I love letting my daughter decorate so she picks out most things

I would love to wander around in that store! I’d go broke, though! :) let’s see – my favorite baking tool? Probably my scoops – I have 2 different sizes and they make everything from cookies to muffins so easy to portion.
Fondant is my absolute favorite! I can’t work with buttercream for anything, but I make some awesome fondant cakes.
My very favorite thing for baking is my giant box of cookie cutters. There’s only so much cookie dough in the world…
I would love this store by me! I am doing a purple party next week and could use some fun sprinkles.
HOLY CRAP. I seriously am loving this store. I could spend hours there, buy a bunch of stuff with NO idea what I would use it for, and then just be giddy putting it in the cabinet.
My favorite baking tool is definitely my cookie scoops. I love using them to fill cupcake liners…perfect every time!
I’m so glad (sad) there isn’t a store like that where I live. I’d be in trouble!!!

A wooden spoon. Don’t enter the kitchen without it.
That store looks amazzzzzing.
My favorite decorating item is probably my “spreader” which is an old rounded spatula type thing that was my moms. I have fond memories of using it to frost cakes with it growing up.
I love sprinkles :)
Where is Tuker Georgia?
My favorite baking accessory is my farm animal sprinkles- pigs, ducks, cows and bunnies. I would love to add some more to my collection! Love your website!

i know i’m past the “time” but i almost pee’d in my pants when i realized you’re here in atlanta (even though i really knew that)
!) i so want to go to that store, it’s not too far at all!
That store would be a dream come true! My favorite baking tool is parchment paper. I use it for EVERYTHING!
Favorite cookie tool is my Tupperware mixing bowl! It makes me smile :)

I love my 9inch cake pans. I love to make layered cakes. I also love sprinkles!
My spatula. I love that no matter what I’m cooking or baking, my daughter would sit there and wait patiently to taste whatever batter is left on the spatula. The huge smile she gives me when I hand her the spatula always makes my day. The spatula is my favorite baking tool and my daughter is my favorite reason why I bake.

I love my kitchen aid mixer! I wish we had this store it is AMAZING!!!

this is amazing! My favorite baking tool is pre colored fondant. I use the black and flesh colors all the time. So much easier that tinting myself.
Oh my gosh I wish I could go there!!! We have nothing like that here dangit! But my favorit tool by far is my william sanoma scraper! I’ve had it for years and have bought tons of other scrapers and this one by far is the best. And for sprinkles I love them all no matter what they make a cupcake look 1000 times better!

Thanks

Wow!! That baking store is amazing. I wonder if they have any starfish looking sprinkles…oh how I love the ocean…LOVE IT!!! well almost as much as baking ;) Thanks for everything you are awesome!

OH MY GOSH!!! I would love to GO there!!! It’s like heaven to a cake decorator!! I wish there was a store like that around here. :( I’m in the North of Boston area! You are So lucky to be able to just go to the store. I have to order just about everything online.
DOIPC…that means doubled over in pain crying! LOL
Wow! What an amazing store! Now I know where you find all your incredible sprinkles! My favorite baking tool would definitely be my stiff spatula- great for working with tough batters and quick mixing when working on cakepops!
My email: Lauren.caveness@gmail.com
My favorite baking tools are my Airbake cookie sheets. Oh, and my KitchenAid mixer…and my nylon coated whisk…and my Oxo spoonula…and…oh this could go on forever!
I LOVE your site! I’m sure you never tire of hearing that ;) I could not live without my springform pan or tiny cookie scoop… pick me!

I love all the teeny tiny ball sprinkles! That store is amazing.

I love my big fat star tip. It comes in handy all the time.
Wow! How I wish I lived in GA. I’d get a sugar high walking in there, too! My favorite tool is probably my Wilton cake lifter. Makes moving my cakes *SO* much simpler!
I love to bake bread, and I think my dough scraper is my favorite tool. It’s a good thing I don’t have a store like that near me or I’d be in serious trouble!
I have a lazy susan spinner tray for a round cake that allows you to spin the cake and frost it at the same time… kind of like frosting a mini cupcake and turning it at the same time by hand! It’s genius and has been in the family for years and years.
I don’t really have a favorite… you are just very inspiring! =)
I love cupcake boxes. I wish I had that story near me!
