Hey Sher.... I have not been on the computer much lately... between being sick again... helping plan our son's wedding.... class reunion stuff... work and the yearbook... have not had much ME time!!! UGH!  I have never shipped cupcakes before so can't give you many suggestions.  I am not sure unless you get those plastic containers that they use in the grocery store to pack them in... but if they are turned upside down they would smoosh... I am not much help huh???  The cupcakes are adorable... how about making sugar cookies using the same design?  They would ship nicely!!!

Sher, I'm pretty sure Tanisha has shipped cupcakes but they could have been cookies.  I do remember they had fondant not BC.  Maybe you could ask her directly.

Oh yes!  That is my very first plan is to make cookies and I already have the cookie cut outs in my hand.  Then when I saw these beautiful cupcakes, I was hoping I could ship them as well.

Thanks for responding!

Okay, I will contact Tanisha or hopefully she will see this posting???  I hope you are referring to Tanisha Lane on our membership listing.  Thanks for your help!

What about if you were to pack them in abox tight anough so they would not budge and rolled up poil in between each cupcake then plastic wrap on top then bubble wrap.... Maybe also put a freezer pack in a ziplock. Maybe over nite them...I dont know it might be alot of money... I would try it...Let me know if it works..Patty

Perhaps that might be a good way as well.  Thanks!
