I heart Fancy Flours for making this question of mine obsolete. I just got so sick of the pastel pink/yellow/green set that has been the standby of my grocery shopping since I was a teenager.
Those red/white striped ones? Mwah!
And "mwah" to Heidi, too, for tipping me off about them.

I've often wondered the same thing myself. These ones are very sweet indeed!

Also, your pal :) Martha Stewart makes some freaking cute printed ones she sells at Michaels. Do you guys have Michael's in the states? Hm. Online maybe...

Oh I love Fancy Flours! We bought our wedding cake topper from there.

I stockpile when I find cute ones!

I could not agree more. That's why when the cute ones show up around holidays (that can be used without the holiday at hand) I stock up then!

those are incredible! i can't even find REGULAR muffin papers around here, let alone fancy ones like that. if i were still on my way to getting engaged/planning a wedding, i'd scoop those up for the cupcakes. alas, my heart is broken and i am planless for the time being.
but maybe when i get back from ireland i can make muchos cupcakes to make me happy!

Lovely! I like the pastel ones so much. They are hard to find in Denmark. I think I saw some with polka dots recently. Next time I see some, I will have you in mind.

oh those are adorable!

Check out www.rice.dk for gorgeous retro floral ones. Lucky me a local favourite shop stocks them and I've managed to stockpile a variety of them.

michael's also has then in the baking aisle. I had no idea they had a baking aisle until a few weeks ago. they have the kid-birthday themes there, but I also found pink, lime green and yellow striped papers. nice!

Here, in Spain, is really hard to find!!
I never know where I have to look for them.
But these ones are sooo pretty...

I've gotten really into the minimalist, undyed ones - the brand I buy is the guilt-inducing "If You Care" (so named b/c they are also environmentally friendly). They're a good neutral base when you want the cupcake to shine!
Rachel · May 11, 2008 at 09:05 AM
Wow! I love them! I've always wondered where to get some of those... I normally use a plate made for muffins baking, more like a normal plate with 12 holes in, so you won't have to buy new Cupcake papers all the time...
But although the plate is very handy, it doesn't give you the "feeling" of making muffins the way you did it when you were a little girl... So, I prefer yours, really.

Ahhh, adorable! I have some really sweet cupcake papers from Japan. Cute floral-y mini ones. Since I don't make many muffins, I use them to store beads. ;)
Brooke Medlin · May 11, 2008 at 10:30 AM
OMG...I only ever find the solid color ones. THOSE are cute!
Michele · May 11, 2008 at 10:50 AM
I ALWAYS have a problem finding these too! The only colorful ones at the grocery store are always child-themed: barbie, etc. Ick.

So cute! Coincidence... Martha's "Craft O' The Day" is making carnations out of cupcake liners. They look quite cute... if you can interpret the instructions! http://www.marthastewart.com/portal/site/mslo/menuitem.3a0656639de62ad593598e10d373a0a0/?vgnextoid=78fbce908332f010VgnVCM1000003d370a0aRCRD&vgnextfmt=default&xsc=eml_crd_2008_05_11

Cupcakes are my favorite :) Do you bake from scratch or a box?
Molly Kate · May 11, 2008 at 01:43 PM
Wow those are lovely! I can't wait to see what yummy cupcakes you make :)
♥Lisa
Lisa · May 11, 2008 at 03:56 PM
I LOVE Fancy Flours. They have the greatest stuff for decorating cakes, but the best are their gemstones. They're gorgeous on Christmas cookies!
I just made cupcakes yesterday. I could've used some pretty liners...
Mary Corbet · May 11, 2008 at 04:11 PM
Your blog is so wonderful! I love your work and the colour you are using. :)
Hulda · May 11, 2008 at 04:59 PM
Oh, man...I need the dinosaur muffin papers!
Danielle · May 11, 2008 at 06:24 PM
Wow Emily..thanks so much for sharing the muffin tins site! I'm always looking for unique new ones :) fabuloso!

I'm one of those people who as a kid use to look through my Mom's Wilton cake books (circa 1978 or so) and appreciate (drool over) the fancy cakes and such. As an adult I still don't bake but admire those who do. Anyhow those filigree cupcake wrappers on that site you recommended were so inspiring I would buy those just use as wrappers around candles or for little candies (did I mention I 'm a paper freak too?)..I might even attempt to make cupcakes:)
