Can I just spend all Thanksgiving Day watching this extremely adorable video? Via One Green Planet and it's not just cute, it really has a vegan pumpkin cupcake recipe! Petey Rojas, I hope you will be making more cupcakes and more videos! "What's vanilla?" "You mix it up until the pumpkin goes away." Love this!

Kids' Cupcake Camp charity event looking for kid bakers!
This is the kind of cupcake event we love hearing about! It involves kids, charity and fun. Info from kidscupcakecamp.com, who you can also keep up with on Facebook and @kidscupcakecamp. The event takes place December 11th in Glendora, California. Questions? Email kidscupcakecamp at gmail.com. (Via Patch.com).
Here's what the event is:
The Cake Mamas Bakery is proud to announce the first ever Kids Cupcake Camp™! Finally, cupcakes with a heart!
Kids Cupcake Camp™ is a nonprofit event that creates change with cupcakes!
The concept for a “Cupcake Camp” originated in San Francisco and promotes a true spirit of community and sharing. Customarily, several bakers (professionals, amateurs, and even first time bakers) donate tons of cupcakes and guests come, pay a donation and eat cupcakes, all to benefit a charity or cause. Cupcake Camps now happen around the world and are hosted by people from all walks of life. They’ve taken place in Paris, Montreal, Orange County, Santa Barbara, Boston, and New York just to name a few. The most universal element of a Cupcake Camp is that it brings people together to share their love of cupcakes, and to give back!
The Cake Mamas are putting a different spin on it! This winter’s Kids Cupcake Camp™! will be a huge TOY DRIVE! Due to rough times, job loss and several other economic hindrances, lots of needy families and children will not be able to celebrate or enjoy their holidays this season. We want to make their holidays a little SWEETER and donate TOYS to them!
And here's where kids can get involved and raise money for their schools:
We’re looking for a team of representatives from each school in the Charter Oak and Glendora Unified School Districts to compete for some cold, hard CASH for their school!
Whether, you’re from the Student Council, ASB, Football team, Cheerleading Squad, or any other group/team from your school, we want you! We’re asking you to organize a group of students to create a great recipe and bake 200 cupcakes to compete with at the 1st ever Kids Cupcake Camp!
Each school in the Charter Oak and Glendora Unified School Districts is invited to participate. (*Unfortunately, we can not open the Kids category to all schools due to lack of space. But we will keep you posted if anything changes!) Each school must commit to baking, bringing/donating a minimum of 200 cupcakes and will compete in a TASTE CHALLENGE. *Judges will be determined soon…But, we’re working on some pretty cool prospects so be sure to bring your A game!
The school with the “Best Tasting Cupcake” will provide The Cake Mamas with the winning recipe. The Cake Mamas will bake and sell the school’s winning cupcake at their bakery in Glendora for 30 days (beginning Dec 19th-Jan 21st 2012). 100% of the profits from the winning cupcake will go straight to the school!!!
So, if The Cake Mamas sell 2 dozen cupcakes per day for 30 days, that’s over $2,000!!! It’s that easy!
($3 cupcake x 24 per day = $72 per day. $72 x 30 days = $2,160!!!)
If you are interested in competing and representing your school, please complete the BAKERS REGISTRATION FORM.
They are raising money for Shepherd's Pantry.
About the cause:
Shepherds Pantry is a nonprofit organization in Glendora, CA that provides emergency food, (groceries), clothing, resource counseling, children’s educational programs and a helping hand to struggling families during times of crisis. Shepherd’s Pantry serves local residents of ten cities in the San Gabriel Valley.

Kids and cupcakes: 3-year-old Fable celebrates her birthday in a cupcake dress with Magnolia Bakery cupcakes
A very, very Happy Birthday to adorable, smart 3-year-old Fable, daughter of my friend Rebecca Woolf, who has a great blog Girl's Gone Child and also just gave birth to twins! Fable celebrated her second birthday with Magnolia Bakery cupcakes, as seen below - click through to see her blowing out her candles with her brother. And something I only just now noticed: the dress her grandmother made her has cupcakes on it. Totally adorable. I know what I'm bringing them the next time I visit!
