And, by the looks of these comments, a lot of girl gamers, too. There were more than 5,000 entries trying to win the Wii
and lots of them with pretty funny reasons for which mii cupcake you picked. I’ve had a blast reading them all. Took me forever… but, worth it. Now, here’s a little chart to give you a breakdown of which mii received the most votes.
Hmmmmmmm… most of you picked C and most of you were RIGHT!
However, I wish I had lips like D and the nerve to cut my hair short like B. I’d totally love to have short, sassy red hair. So cute!
But, C is Mii!
And for the record, my hair isn’t quite this yellow, but Nintendo doesn’t have a color choice for dirty blonde.
Alright, let’s get on with things… time for the winner. Who’s it gonna be random.org?
I need one number between 1 and 5,135.
Note: Around 90 people accidentally left their comment in the wrong post, so I added them in the last comment so they would have a shot in the drawing, too. If you go to the last comment 5,044, you’ll see them. In the future, please be careful where you post because I probably won’t be that nice. Thanks!
And, it’s comment #1,841.
Oh no BERE…So close…but you guessed wrong. Man, that hurts. Sorry! Now, I need another number.
And the next one is comment #1,579
YAY Cassi! You picked Mii… C and you’ve won a Wii!
Prepare your kids for the good news. I’ll be contacting you soon.
Oh yeah, thanks for all the Wii Fit reviews. It’s good to know how much you guys like it. I just may have to get one.
Now, I’ve gotta go bowl… ummm… I mean bake!
That’s beautiful!
Cute :)!
The cupcakes look better tahn the real miis!
I prefered D but C’s cute too.
pretty cupcakes !
how can you do this
Yeah I’m 9 I have a wii. And experience! I thought it was C
WOW! What Fantastic photos, ideas, decorations, My head is exploding with thoughts of wanting to do all of these,any of these.. Great!
I think that you should contact a software/game company in your local area, to produce YOUR OWN Wii GAME!!! :) Pleeeeeeeeease?!! ;)
I LOVE BAKERELLAS CAKE POPS!THEY R ADORABLE!
Awesome Cupcakes!
i just bought a Wii and i showed these to my kids. They made them and they were great!
Hey EAT – that’s funny and I totally know what you mean.
My son just helped me make my mii the other night. We really think that I look like two totally different people.
I wish I had a cupmake mii instead of a wii mii.
Shanna – Thanks, I took the pics myself. You can post about it if you credit the photo and link to the site.
I found my way to your blog from Mix Mingle Glow and these cupcakes really caught my eye.
These cupcakes are so beautifully crafted! This would be a really great personalization touch to any event. I bet you could specialize in this! I am so impressed by their likeness to the real thing! (I’m a Nintendo fan.)
Did you take that picture yourself? I was wondering if I could use it in a post to highlight these cupcakes and link back to your blog. Thanks!

Jen – thanks for taking time to tell me that. I appreciate it.

Congrats to the winner. I guessed right, but had a hard time because I knew your hair was a little darker than that yellow! Congrats on the “Bloggie” nomination. I better go cast my vote for you! I am patiently waiting to see what Valentines treats you come up with!

Congrats to the winner!!!!!!
I’m glad I guessed your mii ;-)
Thank you thank you thank you for your generosity, a Wii is an amazing prize.
And also congrats to you, Bakerella. More than 5000 comments !!! That should be on the guiness records book. ;-)
Hey, Bakerella! Just thought you should know that your adorable shirts are in the Feb/March 2009 issue of Taste of Home! I figure you probably know, but I feel like you’re a good friend that I should inform about these things!
I love your blog and your ideas! Thanks for sharing your amazing talents with those of us who aspire to greatness!! :-)
Hey, Bakerella! Just FYI, your cute shirts are in the Taste of Home Feb/March 2009 magazine!!! I figured you know, but I feel like you’re a good friend that I should inform about these things!
I love your blog – you are amazingly talented! Thanks for sharing the love. :-)
Well darn! I didnt win, but I did guess the right Mii… err. . . rather you. :o)
Congrats Cassie!
Okay, when I saw “Cassi” my stomach did a little flip-flop, since my REAL name is “Cassi” and I have never met anyone who spells it like I do… but then I realized that I didn’t post under my real name.
Oh well, congrats to the other Cassi! I’m excited to see that someone else with my name spells is “correctly”! LOL!
Congrats!
I too would love to have some tips on the fondant, as I’m a little scared of it.
Ahh! I was SO close!
Maybe next time. Congratulations to the Wiiner!!
Bere
Congrats Cassi!
Oh well, maybe next time. :) Congrats Cassi! And thanks again to Bakerella for the great giveaway!
Congrats to the Wii winner! Probably best I didn’t win, I don’t need another thing to spend time on =).
I guarantee you will win – it’s not even a contest! My vote is definitely for you!
Hi, I was just tagged by fellow blogger, Miri. I was never very good at playing tag. I just couldn’t run fast enough to tag anyone else. So, even though I have a bad tag record, I am going to give it a try. TAG YOU’RE IT!
As a new blogger, I am aware that many of you are blogging, parenting, running businesses and more. I know your time is precious. My post for this tag, with directions, will post on Wednesday, January 28. I will link your blog and your shoppe if you have one. If we are going to tag one another we should use this fun to promote readership and business.
I would like your permission to use a photograph from your blog to further emphasize how great your work is. Let me know if this is not okay. I am sensitive to copyright issues and know you want to be represented well, even if on a little blog like mine.
This is certainly optional. You are not obligated to play along.
Thank you,
Kelly
CONGRATS!! :D
Congratulations to the winner and sorry to the first winner that guessed incorrectly. :(
I have been checking all day to see if I won because my kids would have died – I didn’t tell them I entered. I guessed the wrong mii, so I wouldn’t have won anyway. :/
Anyway, so fun. I am so excited to have a fun new blog to look at daily. And fun recipes to make. THanks!!!
I knew I was right, but sad I didn’t win. congrats, tho, to the wii-ner!
thanks for the fun giveaway! congratulations on your blooming blog and through-the-roof traffic. we’re keeping an eye out for when you finish putting together your first book!
Congratulations Cassi, and thank you Bakerella, for organising such a fun and exciting competition :)
Haha, her kids will be in seventh heaven.
Looking forwards to more cute cupcake creations, show us more! ?
Congrats, Cassie!
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNER! What a fun give-away!
FYI, I made the Betty Choc. Chip Cookie Dough Brownies (from your prior post) and boy are those things amazing! My husband is on a diet and was not very happy with me….I didn’t do it to throw his diet off, they were too good to pass up–plus we are hosting a Super Bowl party next week so thought I’d try them out now–make sure I know how to make them ;)… Definitely making them again for the all the guys!
I must say putting those two things together is a deadly combination for me. Both are my favorites. A keeper recipe for sure. Thanks for sharing it with us!
Lisa
Oh, well. Cute cupcakes, though. Love your sight!
~Sara
I was bummed for a about 3 seconds, but when I read that Cassi has kids who will be so excited, I was very happy for both she and her kids! Congrats and thanks for the opportunity!
Your so lucky Cassi!! Thanks for the chance Bakerella!!
Thanks for the opportunity you are great!
~*sigh*~ oh well, they’ll be more fun stuff in the future! knew it was “C” because I saw you on Martha! You are way prettier than fondant will allow!
I already have a Wii which is why I didn’t enter. But those cupcakes were ADORABLE!
I love my Wii and Wii Fit was interesting for the first few days. I lost interest quickly though. Within the next year, lots of Wii Fits will be on ebay so I’d wait and get your from there, way cheaper.
Best dishes!
You have a beauty mark?
i’m pouting too *pout*
congrats Cassi! :)
congratulations to the WIIner! :)
I thought you really were D, but only because of the cut and the hair color, hehe.
Well, my kids pouted for thirty seconds and then got over it. Congratulations to the winner. I have been thinking that a great consolation prize would be if you shared with all of us losers how you work with fondant when decorating cupcakes! They are so cute! Thank you for such a fun giveaway! ~Kelly
