Cupcake Push Pops - Another Fun Way to Ship Cupcakes

I had never heard of cupcake push pops until I saw a post about Easter cupcake push pops on Love From the Oven.  Those cupcake push pops were just about the most adorable thing I've ever seen (well, except for any photo of my son).

Here's my son in his happy place (the washing machine).

Although I knew my cupcake push pops could never compete in cuteness with the Peep-topped ones from Love From the Oven, I had to try making some.  Besides, it's hard to screw up with a push pop.  No matter how ugly they turned out, my tasters were bound to be excited by them!

I contacted CupKatesEventDesign and she sent me some push pop holders to review.  These push pop holders have been such a huge seller for her that she regularly sells out of them.  If you don't see any in her shop right now, check back soon. 

How to Ship Cupcakes

It is notoriously hard to ship cupcakes.  When trying to ship cupcakes, there is that pesky problem of keeping the cupcakes from turning upside-down and the gift arriving as a frosted box rather than frosted cupcakes. 

So How Do You Ship Cupcakes?
