Tell us one thing about "Cupcake Wars" we didn't know. I really enjoyed the opportunity to meet her and spend a little time with her on the show. Not only was she so very nice and beautiful, but she seems to have a great sense of humor. Was Candace Nelson really that nice in person? Candace was lovely. I can't say enough good things about the people that work on the show. If you could change anything that happened on your episode of "Cupcake Wars," what would it be? Honestly, I don't think I would change one thing. We definitley did not want a sovory cupcake, which eliminated some ingredients right away, so the toughest part was to come up with a cupcake that wasn't too sweet, because most of everything else was practically pure sugar. Was it hard coming up with a recipe for a cupcake using items from a convenience store? It was really challenging to make the cupcake in round 1. What were you most worried about on "Cupcake Wars"? From watching the first season, we really worried about time as well as being able to create something in such a short amount of time with ingredients we had quite possibly had never used before. We definitely experimented with some recipes as well. What, if anything, did you do to prep for "Cupcake Wars"? Since we are in season 2, we were able to watch season 1 to know what to expect, especially from the judges. So 9 months later we decided to make a career out of something we love and start a business together! It has been so much fun! Kim and I really balance each other. We respected each others talents and shared a love of baking, especially for our family and friends. Kim and I met one day at 5am kickboxing class and would share recipes, ideas, and pictures of our creations. How did you get started baking cupcakes? We both have been baking since we were little. Where are you based out of? Santa Clarita Your name and your company name: Kimberly Thurman and Kimberly Aeck Co-Owners of Bake You Happy In the end, I wasn't too surprised when Bake You Happy won. Glenn The Baker had a great car theme, but it just wasn't right for the LA Auto Show. Bake You Happy was right to create futuristic cupcakes and display for the LA Auto Show. Maybe I was biased because I already knew I liked Bake You Happy, but they seemed to be the forerunner the entire episode. I would definitely eat this cupcake again! And my honest opinion is: that cupcake was amazing! My husband and I were fighting over it! The pretzels added the perfect crunchiness and saltiness to the cupcake. She brought me home a cupcake from the party, which is the same cupcake that Bake You Happy made in round one. My friend Carrie was able to attend Bake You Happy's viewing party. The judges loved this cupcake, although Candace suggested using regular pretzels instead of yogurt-covered ones. Last, but not least, Bake You Happy created a cherry cola chocolate cupcake with a red licorice filling, topped with marshmallow creme and yogurt-covered pretzels. Sadly, the men took too long preparing the batter and didn't finish in time. As gross as it sounds, I was interested to see what the judges thought of it. The two men from Sweet Daddy Cupcakes attempted to make a cupcake using beef jerky, nacho cheese, and slushie mix. I agree with Florian, the cheese puff sprinkles don't have a strong enough presence to count as an ingredient. Glenn the Baker made a jalapeno-beef jerky chocolate cupcake with cream cheese and cheese puff sprinkles. All of the ingredients would be good in a cupcake by themselves, but all together they seemed like a mess. Two Girls and a Cupcake made a Cuban coffee and cinnamon cupcake with strawberry licorice filling topped with coffee buttercream and yogurt-covered pretzels. The items included beef jerky, cheese puffs, yogurt-covered pretzels, nacho cheese, hot dogs, red licorice, and slushie mix. For Round One, the four bakers had to make a cupcake using items you would find in a convenience store. This week's episode of Cupcake Wars had some pretty crazy cupcake creations.
