How fun, exciting, and COOL! You always get to do fun stuff!
I would love to win that wonderful set!
This decorating set looks amazing. I’m already following you on Twitter! =D
How wonderful! You are a lucky girl indeed! Your idea of hog heaven I am sure!
I will be decorating about 60 cupcakes in about a month…this would be handy for sure!
Thanks!
Oooh drooling right now! I heart all those gorgeous dishes. And those brownies..Yum! Following you on twitter too!
This looks amazing! I would love to do something like that!
How fun for you! A blogger from my neck of the woods, Trisha Novotny of 24/7 Moms, was there, too! She is standing behind you in the group picture! I was excited to see she was there, and now I’m doubly excited! Congratulations!
It looks like you had a great time! And was that brownie on a stick? Yummy!
Sounds like fun. I can’t believe I’ve never gone there (I’m in St. Paul) and would love the decorator kit!
So glad that you enjoyed Baking with Betty. What a great opportunity and to read that you are speaking at BlogHerFood…Wow Congratulations!
Photos of your day are awesome.
Oh that looks like so much fun, I love cake plates also, I want one that was in the 60′s the Anchor Hocking Jadeit, I
have the batter bowls and have always wanted the cake plate.
I want a bite of that chocolatey, cakey, frosted, candy covered bunch of yumminess on a stick! I must know what it is and the recipe pleaseeeee!!!!
This is so awesome! I’m glad you had a great time! Those are a lot of dishes!!!!
Oh, and I already follow you on twitter.
Just found your blog. Adorable. I’ll be back for more visits!
I can’t remember my Twitter password, unfortunately.
Sounds like so much fun. Thanks for the chance to win the decorating set.
looks like such a blast… i am a closet baker, i try all my creations out on my kids and this give away would be awesome!!!!
Oh, wow, I’d love to win this (of course, I’d rather have your decorating talent, but I’d take this!)
Ooh…I would love to win that. Thanks for such a great giveaway. I hope to be making awesome treats with it soon.
I would LOVE to win the decorating kit. My grandaughter and I have soooo much fun baking in the kitchen together and I think this would be fun for me and HELPFUL to her. She is 12 and becoming quite the little pastry baker. Thanks for sharing your trip to “Betty’s” with us. I agree the cake stands were truly breathtaking.
Looks like a fabulous time! I’d love to win!
Oh, and I already follow you on Twitter.
I’m new to baking, but I am totally obsessed. I’m not very artsy, but I took a cake decorating class last year and loved it. I am hoping to eventually be able to create masterpieces for my family and daughters birthday parties. Your cakes amaze me. The giveaway is much desired for me – the beginner!
Love your photos. I looks like you had a great time….what fun! I could really use this decorator kit.
Look at all the lovely cake stands… wow!
Amanda! What a cool opportunity! I too am obsessed with cake stands and I’m not sure why because I don’t bake as much as I would like. There are some beautiful cake stands out there
I would love to visit Betty! :] That sounds like so much fun! And the cake stands, ahhh!
Amazing…the cake stands…the dishes…heaven!
Sounds like so much fun! I would love to win! I heart your blog by the way. You are so incredibly creative! love it!
Oh and I forgot to say I followed you on Twitter (I’m @nutmeag22!)
Wow, that sounds like so much fun. I would love to win the cake decorator, I would have no excuse then to get busy decorating:) I am truly inspired by your baking, love it all!
What a cool opportunity!
I love checking in to see all of your new creations. If I could get my baby to nap somewhere besides my arms, I would be baking away. I made your heart cake and the coffee sugar cookies and LOVED them. I would use the decorating set to decorate Kynlie’s first birthday cake in October.
I’ve always wanted one of those cake decorating kits!
I follow you on twitter too.
Just got back from MPLS last week. Loved the weather!
What a fun, memorable experience!!! (I see Molly from Snyder 5 in a couple of your pictures!)
looks like a blast!
Looks like a great time! I just discovered your blog today and am wowed by your cookies and cupcakes! I’d love the decorating kit!
Wow! I’m in love with all white dishes and cake stands are a new passion!
That must have been one amazing day!
How fun! I love cakes, cake stands, decorating cakes…even decorating cake stands!
That brownie on a stick looked awesome!! What fun you must have had!
I’d love it too!
Glad you had fun! Wouldn’t it be great to have all those dishes and props at our disposal?!
Look at all of the wonderful dishes!!!
I would love to win a chance to go to something like Baking with Betty!!
I cannot imagine the excitement of that experience!!! Lucky girls!!! I’d like to be a lucky girl, too.
You crack me up with your cake stand obsession!! Looks like it was a fun day!
Oh my goodness. What a great giveaway. I am needing to get decorating stuff because crazy me volunteered to decorate over 300 cupcakes for an anniversary party. Man, what was I thinking?
Thanks for the giveaway.
What a fun “field trip”!!!
Looks like so much fun! I’d love to win the set!
Love your blog!
I would LOVE to have this. I have been decorating my cakes with snipped off baggies…not super efficient:) You do wonderful work and I always use your buttercream frosting. My kids love it. In fact, we had our youngest daughter, Esme’s first birthday party and the first thing my niece said was “is this you buttercream with the almond extract in it?” Yep…it was!! Thanks!
Sounds like it was a fun and yummy experience! The decorating set looks great!
I need this!! Maybe then I can do some decent decorating.
Oh, and I already follow you on Twitter. But you knew that!
So cool! That brownie looks delicious!
I would just love to win this. I don’t have any cake decorating items (or skills for that matter) but your blog really does inspire me to try. I think I need to come away from the store bought decorating icing in a tube, though!
I would love to win that great set! My Daughter loves to help me bake!
Wow! What a wonderful adventure!
What a wonderful opportunity. It seems that you had a lot of fun!
I am so envious of your trip! I am obsessed with pretty platters and cake stands too but usually don’t have the extra bucks to spend. Your pictures are great!
I love a good cake stand! Great pictures! What an awesome trip! I would love to take a trip there!
Looks like a fabulous time!
she’s fun! Wish I were seeing you both at Blogher food, but I’m not going.
I know Marla
Hope we end up at an event together someday!
How fun baking with “BETTY CROCKER”!
I love to decorate cakes. It would be fun to see how it works with the kit rather than the bags.
WOWZA! I think I need to wipe the drool off my computer after seeing all those props! That looks like an amazing place! I am so happy you got to be there and that you’re sharing all the pictures with us!!!
As much as I would love to be there baking, I think I’d love to just watch you work your magic with cakes, cookies, and frosting!
Congrats on the Bloggerfood gig! You are totally the perfect person for it!
I stalk…er, uh, follow you on twitter, too!
Love seeing your tweets

I would love to have fun with the decorating set! It sure would beat using a ziplock bag with the corner snipped! Thanks for the chance to win!
I would LOVE to win!
I am so jealous! What fun! I have a slight obsession with the cake stand as well. Oh, my but I swooned at the pictures.
Thanks for the chance to win!
I need to have inspiration to find the time to the baking I want to do, and that set would be so much fun to use!

I follow you on twitter (justicedcookies)
You look like you had so much fun!!!
OHHH and I’m now following you on Twitter too! LOL
I can’t even tell you how GREEN with envy I am…
This. looks. IN.CREDIBLE! I don’t even enjoy baking all that much – because I’m terrible at it – but this…this makes me want to do it! ACK!
How LUCKY are YOU!
um, yeah – twitter follower!
I normally never click on posts that don’t have recipes (from foodgawker) but I couldn’t help it when I read your caption! I am SO jealous!
Oh this would be so nice to use and take some wrist strain out of the pastry bags, I’d love to win it.
And that props room IS so drool worthy.
What was coating that brownie on a stick in the picture? Looks tasty.
Ooops….and I forgot to mention I’m now following you on Twitter from SpoonsCupcakes.
Toodles!
Looks like you had a blast! That kit also looks like it could be a lot of fun to use.
Have a blessed day!
That looks like it was so much fun! My Betty Crocker cookbook definitely gets a work out so I know it was yummy, too!

You are so cute Emily… and too kind! Thank you so much. I so hope you do try decorating.. I am sure you are a natural!
I would just love to win this. I dont have any cake decorating items (or skills for that matter) but your blog really does inspire me to try. I think I need to come away from the store bought decorating icing in a tube, though!
Looks like a great place to visit and do all that baking – and eating!! LOL. Would love to win – Thanks for the opportunity!
What a fun trip! So glad you got to experience it! And what a fun little toy that decorating kit would be! I mean the kids get new toys all the time, why not one for mommy now and then, right?!?!
mandymooeaston@yahoo.com
I would kill to bake with betty and decorate with her cookie decorating tools! I just finished decorating 50 cookies for a wedding using your icing as the base (I’m the annoying one tweeting you all the time!)
I follow you on twitter! I’m @emilykasik – again the annoying one asking you too many questions but thanks for the advice!
What a fun place to visit. Thanks for sharing it with us!
I’m just getting started in learning how to decorate cupcakes. I’d love to have some actual decorating supplies! (Right now I mostly work with ziplock baggies!)
Thanks for the chance to win a decorating set!
plse enter me for the cake decorator
and then i saw oooh Betty Crocker 
looks like you had a fab time – i wish i could go to.
when i saw the blog heading i was like waaaoh you looked at my blog and cooked something from my betty bake blog
from another Betty
Please share photos of the yummy stuff you made – the chocolate on the stick looks D.E.E.L.I.C.I.O.U.S. Yum.
oh! looks so fun!
I would love this for my MIL, who loves to bake!
Cool!
That sounds like so much fun!
Baking with Betty looks like a blast!
Looks like such a fun experience!
I hope I win!
I would loooooooooooooove to have one day to play in their store room of dishes!! and the cupcake decorating kit!! ***squeee!*** Can I call dibs? lol!
Oh my goodness, does that look like a ton of fun! And I, too, have a *slight* cakestand obsession.
)
I am following you on twitter, I just added you.
That looks like so much fun!
That would be so much fun to bake with betty!
Oh my… I don’t think I would have ever left!! I joined the site.. hopefully I can do fun stuff like that!!
I don’t live in the US, but maybe I can get a friend to mail it to me… I would definitely want a decorating set because I do want to get into decorating, especially cupcakes and frosted cookies like yours! All my baked goods look (cough) “rustic”, so I’d like to make them prettier.
No way! I never knew such a place existed!!
I also have an obsession with cake stands! The only reason I don’t have more…is I have run out of storage space.
It was so fun and I was so glad to get to meet you.
The pictures look like you had a great time! Wow! What a huge selection of goodies to pig out on. I would have had gestational diabetes by the time it was over, to be sure!
And I’m totally with you as far as cake stands go… Oh man. I would have been like, “Umm… Any chance you won’t ever be using THIS one again???” Sigh… If only there were money enough for superfluous cake stand collecting in this house!
Okay, I haven’t even finished reading your post, but I had NO IDEA that you were speaking at BlogHer Food. I would have loved to come and see you! I have NO NEED to actually go to BlogHer Food, since I don’t have a Food Blog, but I still might have come! ;D
I think this would have been my dream come true…not only the baking aspect, but I have a little obessession with cake pedestals myself…and platters, dishes, anything ceramic really, but cake pedestals especially! What doesn’t look better when put on a cake pedestal? BTW, I am using your corn syrup frosting on a cookie order for next weekend! Thanks for the tip on the “shiny”!
what an amazing oportunity! looks sooo fun
i am now following you on twitter
That looked like so much fun! And all those gorgeous cake stands! Wow! I do love me the cake stands! Thanks for sharing!
So fun!! Betty Crocker is the inspiration for my blog
Oh my god… cake stand orgasm. I would love to see that in person!! Looks like you had fun
Omgosh! I can’t get tickets
It would be an absolute dream come true to meet you! You’re a big reason why I started baking! One of my biggest inspirations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is there ANY way I may receive a conference pass?! Any suggestions?!
I would love to win this! I dream of actually doing some decorating one day!
I follow you on Twitter @jewelsntreasure

I would love love love to receive the Betty Dessert Kit!! And my family would too, after the first couple of days of curlique decorated- everything. But after maybe the fifth day maybe only I would get a kick out of sour cream flowers on my tacos. But i would make them love it too.
