How to Ship Cupcakes

[@Areece2418]

I am going to give this a try. I started a cupcake business and many of my customers live out of state. This video provided me with lots of good tips, thank you

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

How exciting! I wish you the best of luck on your new business ❤️

Thank you for sharing these great ideas! Now I can send some of my yummy cupcakes to my sweet disabled brother💕

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

You’re welcome! I’m sure he would love that 💕 🧁

[@bonjourputas]

How do I prevent the post office from turning the package upside down? I've put "this side up" or "fragile" on packages only for the box to be wrecked upon arrive.

[@kanchannaik2009]

Going to try this

[@sugalilly5]

This video is exactly what I was looking for! I really appreciate the tips, thank you!!

[@sweetremission2658]

Thank you for this video! If you bake muffins like blueberry or banana nut do you suggest the insulated bags and cooler packs as well whether it's hot or cold temps?

[@michellethompson1071]

Great idea, thankyou for your lovely turturial, Michelle x

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

🥰 you’re welcome ❤️

[@kaylar5658]

Awesome :)!! Ty and ty for supporting our troops. PS please let us know the COST per each box size snd the weight of what u are sending here ty

[@amandaadams3978]

Thank you so much for the info! Do you freeze them first? Also what outside temperature would you recommend for using the ice pack method from your cake video?

[@bethzaidacintron2378]

No sabía que se podían enviar cupcakes con éxito por correo, excelente idea. Muchas gracias por compartir.

[@deadsilence7528]

Thank you so much for the tips!! I've been tryna figure out how to ship cupcakes to a friend who lives 5 states away as a free sample for a business I'm starting so this really helps!!!

[@godsloveforthegrievingwido7688]

Thank you for your information I appreciate it would you happen to know how to ship a German chocolate cake or red velvet cake

[@elizabethvanjacob2915]

Lots of good information and strategies in this video and your one on mailing whole cakes. I am wondering how you would recommend shipping mini skull cakes (see the Nordic Ware mini skull cake pans).

[@wandaharden438]

I loved it. I don’t know why you got thumbs down that was awesome. I’m going to try it thanks 😊

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

You’re so sweet, thank you ❤️

[@yayaof1189]

Thank you for sharing as I needed this tutorial as I send goodies to all 11 grandchildren

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

You’re welcome! I love sending to all of my nieces and nephews, it helps me feel closer to them ❤️

[@user-gi6vg4ne1p]

Is there a link to these liners?

[@MariaGonzalez-kd1ww]

Thanks for the tips !! I barely started my little business selling cupcakes 🧁 Where did you get the sticks ?

[@kinsleytaylor7022]

How much is the flat rate box ?

[@tracyvanloo848]

Thankyou!!!

[@raniakhouadri266]

Please ca you do a tutoriel of labels and shipping 🌷

[@raniakhouadri266]

Thanks first of all and may Allah protect you i've a question Can we use two websites to ship products or just one web ?🌷😊

[@danahastings3908]

A nice idea, but would get expensive if you have to buy the containers each time

[@Youtube221B]

I thought that too until I found bake shop equipment stores where I could buy the PET plastic cake containers. They're less than a dollar for 10 pieces in my country. More online and boutique stores cater to home bakers and small businesses now.

[@itsyagirlsash687]

Hi can you provide the link for the cupcake wrappers. I loved the video btw thanks for sharing.

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Hi! Of course :) www.amazon.com/dp/B085L88469/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_B7yjFbSPT8DSK I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@michellemoore9367]

Would this work for cheesecake cups?? Please advise

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

I would NOT send cheesecake - it has to be refrigerated so I couldn’t chance it!

[@kennadithomas276]

Thank you! This was great

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

You're welcome, I'm glad it was helpful!

[@billiewilder7789]

Do you have a link for those liners?

[@sumr_rane2676]

Love your tutorials! Did you ship the cupcakes frozen?

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Thank you, I appreciate it! These weren’t shipped frozen because it wasn’t super warm yet, but if you wanted to ship cupcakes in the heat I would recommend watching the “How to Ship a Cake” episode where I show how to package a cake shipped during August and the cupcakes could be packaged in the same way ❤️

[@beckymurandu3283]

Hie thank you very much for the idea....what are the dimensions of the plastic containers?

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Hi! You can use any size that the cupcakes fit in and cut the stick to the top of the container. The one I used was a 9 cup large rectangle 😊

[@sweetsbysantana8236]

Loved the video! Where did you purchase the cutter you used to cut the cake pop stick?

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Thank you! I used dog nail clippers (which are also used to cut wooden cake dowels and I only use for baking, I don’t even have a dog haha!) You can use scissors though, they’ll cut just fine ❤️

[@AvaThePrincess1st]

Where do you get your gladware boxes? Could you give a link to the ones you use, I think I found the ones but I want to make sure before I get them! Thank you!

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Hi! This is the size I use: Ziploc Container Large Rectangle, 9 cup Containers - 2 ct by Framo USA Learn more: www.amazon.com/dp/B0000DIWQO/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_q5j-Eb735TMNV You can definitely find them cheaper on Amazon or at Target :)

[@strawberryghost]

I'm about to ship cupcakes, but I'm worried about the warm weather. I have a foam cooler and ice packs I intend to use, but I'm wondering if it would also be a good idea to freeze the cupcakes before mailing? I know going right from frozen to room temp will cause condensation, but since they'll be in a cooler with ice packs, wouldn't that maybe be the same as thawing in the fridge, and hopefully prevent melting on the way? any insight would be appreciated

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Hi! The weather is getting really warm to ship anything with buttercream without packing with precaution. My “How to Ship a Cake” video shows how to pack and ship during warmer months but I am a little concerned that USPS flat rate shipping is taking longer than the 2 days during COVID. I think UPS has an overnight option but I think it’s pricey!

[@strawberryghost]

@@ChristinaCakesIt thank you!

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

You’re welcome!

[@yvettepearson3137]

What type of tool are you using to cut the sticks?

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Hi! Would you believe they are dog toe nail clippers?? (I only use them for baking tasks, as they cut wire too- I don’t even have a dog haha). Scissors will work too :)

[@saisreereddy94]

Hi I'm planning to ship unfrosted eggless cup cakes but I'm worried about shell life of cupcakes as it will take 5 days to deliver. Luckily weather is not warm. Would it be fine if I follow your packaging approach in this case or please suggest any other ideas to ship the cupcakes without getting spoiled.

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Hi! I haven’t shipped unfrosted cupcakes but what I would do is wrap each one individually in plastic wrap or press and seal, and then put in Tupperware. I think they’ll be okay, but I would worry they might be a little dry. Good luck! ❤️

[@saisreereddy94]

Thanks alot..that's really helpful ❤️

[@aler5164]

Where do you buy the glad ware Tupperware?

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Hi! I get them on Amazon or at the grocery store/Target 😊

[@aler5164]

Thank you very much for your response. Also could you please tell me what size are the ones you get in Amazon and also what size of box do you get from USPS? Great videos, I think I almost watched all your videos 💕

[@Mrsborniiwin]

@@aler5164 For the glad ware she used a 9 cup rectangular and the box can be ordered from usps.com or picked up at the post office. The size of the USPS shipping box she used is a "large/flat rate" box.

[@momof4634]

Do I pick the boxes up from the post office for free?

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Yes, flat rate boxes are free and out at the post office for anyone to take 😊

[@momof4634]

@@ChristinaCakesIt Ok great is there a certain size I have to get for the cupcake container to fit?

[@ChristinaCakesIt]

Large flat rate ❤️

[@momof4634]

@@ChristinaCakesIt yes I have the large flat rate but my 12 count cupcake container does not fit.

I'm going to try this as well... Allot of my new customers are out of state... Wish me luck 😁 Instagram.com/datdread_rozaay
