Whoever said that birthdays were sweet was right! And American Greetings is certainly taking that saying to heart, offering a new line of greeting cards called Tasties ™ that have a flavor strip inside. This dissolvable strip complements each card type according to the flavor offered.
Our favorite is the cupcake card (of course!). A yummy cupcake is featured on the outside of the card and it says, “If nothing else, birthdays are a great excuse to eat cake.” The inside says, “lots and lots of cake.” Then the dissolvable strip invites the card recipient to “taste” the vanilla cupcake to make this greeting even sweeter. What a unique card? We think that’s certainly a greeting card people will remember. What could be better than offering the temptation and treat of a great cupcake and your sweet wishes for a Happy Birthday for a loved one?
The Tasties ™ cards are available at grocery stores (where you can also find the ingredients for cupcakes….), drug stores and other locations that sell American Greetings cards. We have a feeling you’ll be on the lookout for these great cards near you!
When it comes to celebrating birthdays, cupcakes are the best! Whether for an child’s or adult’s birthday, the sweet treat of cupcakes says, “Happy Birthday!” like nothing else. We bet you have your favorite birthday cupcakes you like to make for a loved one’s birthday.
A single cupcake is a sweet way to say Happy Birthday, especially to someone who doesn’t like much of a fuss over their birthday. It shows you are doing something special, without going out and getting a mariachi band or parade floats. Cupcakes are always sweet and thoughtful. And who can resist blowing a single candle out to get that great birthday wish we all hope comes true? (I know I can’t!) Someone you love is on a diet? Try making mini cupcakes! It’s a tiny sweet treat that still has all of the celebration with less than half of the calories. That’s a great way to celebrate when someone is watching their waistline – and you still have that deep urge to make them cupcakes.
So spill and share! What Happy Birthday cupcakes have been a big hit at that birthday party? What birthday cupcakes do you love for kids? Or adults? What birthday cupcake tips would you give fellow cupcake lovers?
