Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)So my nephews and nieces came over and my daughter decides that she wants to open her birthday present and "bake". We agree, because it only needed a microwave and some water to make "supposedly" tasty cupcakes. Easy right?? Not really...
And it begins... luckily we didn't have to assemble which was a blessing. We grab the little mixing bowl and pour in the little powdery mix. ON a side note, a big annoyance is the fact that the set starts you off with 4 cupcakes only. One in each flavor: Vanilla, Chocolate, Red Velvet and Cinnamon. So luckily, the big kids that could participate were only 4 so there wasn't any arguing. The down side once again... only one bowl and mixing spoon/spatula. We pour in the 2 tablespoons of water, daughter mixes and we pop it into the microwave with its appropriate container. Twenty-five seconds later; VIOLA! It is indeed a cupcake, but a spongy-holey looking one. Within a minute, my honest reaction was: "WHAT'S THAT SMELL?" I kept on asking if the dog had urinated somewhere. We discovered that the "glorious" smell was indeed the birthday girls Vanilla cupcake.
The next three children went, 2 tablespoons of water wasn't enough for some of the mixes. Chocolate after it was nuked smelled like poop. Cinnamon smelled like cinnamon batter and Red Velvet smelled like different poop. Nonetheless... the 4 cousins were excited to ice. The contraption/syringe that you have to stuff the icing into is just way too small. When you finally load it and the kids start pressing down, it just plops down icing at the same point for each revolution.
At the end of the day, it was fun for them, stinky for all of us and too darn messy. You are better off with supervised baking then this junky mix. Wonderful idea, but the flavoring needs to be tweaked majorly. The kids licked off the icing and then proclaimed they didn't want any more. TYPICAL!
