Here is a cake that a co-worker of mine received for her birthday.

It was purchased at WalMart and is made from 2 cupcakes. This is so cute, has anyone seen these and know how much they sell them for. This would be so easy to do.

I don't know how much and I've never seen it before, but I'm surprised that it's from Wal-Mart! Very out of the ordinary for them! Cute!!!

I bought those before. It seems like they were around the $4-$5 mark. It has been awhile but they were not much at all.

In the Houston area they sell these cute puppies for $2.50!!!! They are only two cupcakes with a TON of frosting on them. SOmetimes they have been sitting out for so long that the bright colored colors have bled onto the white hair!

OMG! This is sooooo cute. I own a gourmet doggy treat business and I could incorporate something (healthy) like this for dogs too!! But, I think dog owners would love this cake for themselves! icon_lol.gif

The second cake posted is so cute. I'm not sure what that red squished meatball looking thing is supposed to be on the Wal Mart cake but it looks nothing like a tongue to me!!!!! That definately is a lot of icing though!

The reason that your link didn't work is because you have a period after the htm if you erase that it will work.

I watched the gal at our walmart make these. Whe was using brown and white and they were very cute, TONS of frosting, but quick to make! I think they were 2.50 here too and I thought, that I would charge more for that.

southernbelle: I didn't realize you were from Lebanon, Tn. We had a band comp yesterday in Westmoreland, Tn and went through Lebanon. We stopped at Wal-mart in Lebanon on the way home last night and I bought the Halloween cupcake stand back in the craft section for $4.50. I am glad someone is close to me.

For anyone who has read the directions for the maltese puppy cake, I dont understand one thing...Do you make front legs with leftover cake or just make paws with icing??

The paws are made in icing only. The back legs are in cake but the front ones are just icing.

We sell tons of these little cuties at the bakery I work in. We make all different colors by airbrushing them. We charge $1.99 for them, but that is a bakery price. K'ly
