Mom's Time-Saving Tools: Cupcake Carriers
Why did I waste all these years without one? I recently got myself a cupcake carrier, one of those caddies that keeps each cupcake beautiful and tidy in its own little spot. After years of decorating cupcakes on a plate, only to have their frosting rub off on each other as well as on the foil or plastic wrap I used to cover them, I realize this thing will save me from the frustration and ugliness that comes with serving these party staples at least tri-annually (there are three kids' birthdays in our house).
The best part is, the one I got, the Carefree Kitchen Party Traveler, comes with a clear cover so the kids can oggle all they want while the cupcakes remain hermetically sealed and germ-free. It also comes with removable trays for veggies and dip, as well as deviled eggs. Though I can't imagine deviled eggs lasting long enough in my house to be displayed much less transported anywhere.
Add a comment below to let me about any time-saving tools you've discovered.

Thank you for sharing such a wonderful information. How and where do I order the Cupcake Courier (for 36 cupcakes)? I’d love to buy one for my daughter who is always baking cupcakes to take to her children's school.
