Everyone loves cupcakes. They’re fun, festive and full of sugar. That’s why we thought they’d be the perfect subject for a Picaboo photo book. After all, have you ever met a cupcake you didn’t like? When we asked our Facebook fans to come up with a good title for a Picaboo book about cupcakes, we got some very creative responses. So many, that we got to thinking, wouldn’t a photo book based on cupcakes (or baked goods) be a fun read? With the holidays coming, sweet treats will be abundant. Take pictures and make a book of all your favorite holiday sweet treats. Or consider making a cookbook of your family’s traditional holiday foods.
To prepare yourself, take a look at this article that offers tips for taking pictures inside. Or this article that shares tricks for photographing food. And to get real inspired, take a look at this cookbook made for Grandma Billie or this Cookie of the Month Cookbook made by Shauna. Still want more? We’ve got a step-by-step guide and a video tutorial. Basically, we’ve got everything you need to make the perfect cookbook. All that’s left is a really good title.
And now…the winner of the cupcake contest is…

My sister-in-law is an amazing quilter. A book about some fantastic hand-made traditional quilts would be a cool idea for a naming contest.
And here are some other ideas:
Night photography at an amusement park
Wild, colorful mushrooms
Tulips
(How many ideas am I allowed to submit?
I love the idea of a book of patterns for crafters or a photobook of an adoption celebration. We will be throwing a party when we finalize the adoption of our daughter!
