PetCakes {Review&Giveaway}

Last year my children were addicted to Zhu Zhu Pets, and while they still adore the furry little creatures they have also began to explore the vast world of toys, thanks in part to Nickelodeon and all the toy commercials.  Normally Lil Diva prefers baby dolls and monster trucks to stuffed animals, but that all changed as soon as she was introduced to PetCakes!  

If you’ve never heard of PetCakes let me be the first to fill you in on what you are missing!  Petcakes are adorably delicious pets with a major sweet tooth!  Here’s some more about PetCakes from their website:

Well Made™ Toy Manufacturing Corporation, introduces PetCakes™, a new collectible plush pet line that will be a sweet treat for children ages 3 & up. Each PetCakes animal features a "frosting" hat, comes nestled in its own cupcake wrapper and has its own whimsical backstory. At first look, children will see a delicious cupcake but will then be surprised by the pet they find snuggled inside! Combining sweet faces and cuddly plush with a clever cupcake theme, PetCakes are collectible and provide hours of open-ended imaginative play. PetCakes make perfect gifts for a special friend and for pet lovers. They are ideal for birthday party favors, stocking stuffers and as rewards for good grades. Most of all, PetCakes deliver the kind of fun kids eat up! Lil Diva LOVES her PetCake Twinkle Sprinkles! 

We received 4 of the cute and cuddly PetCakes for our review; Coco Coconut (the poodle), Blueberry Buddy (the Shar Pei ), Twinkle Sprinkles (the Beagle and Lil Diva’s favorite PetCake), and Randy Candy (the loveable and oh-so-cute mutt).  As soon as Lil Diva laid eyes on the PetCakes it was over, she was head over heels for the puppies in an instant.  I do have to say that they are very cute, and I love the idea of presenting them in “cupcake wrappers” with icing and sprinkles and a cherry…very cute and very original!  I generally don’t let my children have stuffed animals (because stuffed toys are like potato chips—they can’t stop at just one), but I made an exception for the PetCakes.  Lil Diva really does love her PetCakes, Twinkle Sprinkle goes with Diva wherever she goes…they are inseparable and it is adorable!  I can’t tell you how many moms have seen Lil Diva carrying around her little puppy at the store and stopped and asked where we got it from and how cute it was…if that’s not good feedback I don't know what is! 

Look for a whole new line of PetCakes debuting in 2011, the line will feature new puppies, kittens, bears, rabbits, raccoons !  You can check out PetCakes and SO many more great holiday gift ideas in MIBR 2010 Holiday Gift Guide!

3 Extra Entries

***Clarification!!!  It was brought to my attention that this part of the Extra Entry options is a bit confusing so I want to clear up any doubt.  For Tweeting (which you can do daily, up to 3 times) you get 3 extra entries each time you Tweet.  So if you Tweet tomorrow only once that is 3 extra entries…or if you Tweet tomorrow all three times that is 9 extra entries. 

For Facebook you can only share once daily, but that one time is worth 3 extra entries as well.  I hope I made it a little easier to understand…if you still have questions please feel free to email me @ a_proffitt79(at)yahoo(dot)com!***

Tweet this giveaway on Twitter, be sure to include @Allie_23 in your Tweets (up to 3x per day per length of giveaway)
