Oh the joys of baking with
children! If you've never done it, you really do
need to try. And if you are intimidated at baking
from scratch (especially with little hands involved) the
Zebra Cupcake & Frosting Kit is a great way to get
started. Not only does it include everything you
need, it also includes detailed, easy-to-follow
instructions. And by easy-to-follow we mean for
both parents and kids! No, this isn't the kind of
product or toy that you just turn the kids loose on, but
with a little help from Mom or Dad, they - and you -
will have a blast baking together! |

Durability is a tough
category for a baking kit...in some ways it isn't a fair
judge. On one hand, all of the pieces and parts
are pretty much included. On the other hand, once
you use up the mixes, decorating sugars and cupcake
papers, you'll need to buy more if you want to use the
kit again. |

Awesome appeal! If you have a
little one who has been bitten by the baker's bug, they
will love the look of this kit off the shelf. And
with a little help and creativity, you'll be able to
guide them into baking adorable, delicious cupcakes. |

Similar to durability, this
is a tough category for a baking kit. The kit will
definitely guide you and your children through a fun
baking process - and you'll make delicious cupcakes.
But once the mixes are used up, you'll need to replace
them to get any more functionality out of the kit.
The directions last and the frosting pen will last - but
after that you'll need to buy the rest. |

With a suggested retail price of
$22.99 the Zebra Cupcake & Frosting Kit prices in right
around the perfect gift price range of $20. The
retail price is a bit higher than we would have liked
considering you'll need to replace ingredients after the
first use, but all in all - the price point certainly
seems fair. |

The Zebra Cupcake & Frosting Kit
certainly isn't the first baking kit we've seen for
children, but it certainly is one of the most original.
This kit encourages creativity, has excellent
instructions to get your kids there, and comes with all
the tools you'll need for a fun baking experience. |

A baking kit is such a difficult
item for us to rate...Like we've mentioned - the
Zebra Cupcake & Frosting Kit packs all the tools you
need for a fun baking experience with the kids.
However, after you use the kit, you'll need to
replace the parts if you'd like to bake with it
again. All in all, the kit is priced fair, and
is sure to make for a fun afternoon activity with
the family. If you go into the fun knowing it
is sort of a one shot deal, you'll have set your
expectations properly and can truly enjoy the
experience of baking with your kids. |
