Aprons are useful tools to have in the kitchen. I say tools because they can do quite a lot: protect your clothes, give you a place to wipe your hands or hang a dishtowel, and even provide you with pockets to hold extra spices, spoons and spatulas that you just don’t have room for. And if the apron is cute and fun to wear, that is even better. Flirty Aprons is a company that specializes in cute and – of course – flirty aprons. They have some great patterns to choose from, all with wide fabric belts that tie into a big bow and a beautiful ruffled trim. I recently got to test out one of their most delightful designs: the Frosted Cupcake apron. The apron is made from soft cotton and has a nice strong feel to it. I like the pockets and I love the cut, because these aprons were designed to be flattering. For instance, the ruffle stopped right at my waist, so there was no bunching of extra fabric, and the wide tie makes your waist look slim, not shapeless. And the adorable cupcakes are a nice finishing touch to the whole thing.
This week, I’m giving away the Frosted Cupcake apron pictured above! To enter the giveaway, just leave a comment at the bottom of this post with your favorite frosting flavor - in honor of the frosted cupcakes on the apron. The winner will be chosen randomly on Thursday, January 28th at midnight. Don’t forget to leave your e-mail address when you comment so that I can contact you if you are the winner.
If you don’t win the giveaway, check out some of their other aprons as a gift for yourself or as a fantastic Valentine’s Day gift. Flirty Aprons makes mens and kids aprons, as well. I really like the Cherry Blossom Apron, too, and will be adding that to my own wish list!
Update: This contest is closed. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Butter cream. Or cream cheese. Frankly, you put enough sugar and fat in it and I’ll eat just about anything.
So cute! I love the butter cream frosting myself.
Vanilla swiss buttercream (what can I say…I’m a purist)…unless it’s chocolate cake because we all no that a chocolate cake just isn’t quite right without a dense chocolate frosting!
I love this apron! I’ve been on the search for a cute one. My favorite frosting has got to be a maple cream cheese frosting- so delicious.
my favorite frosting: your buttermilk chocolate frosting. It’s become my standard go-to frosting and I use it on anything chocolate. My relatives are all “believers” in it too.
Cream cheese is my favorite frosting =)
I heart cream cheese frosting on almost any cake flavor. Yummy! Thanks for the giveaway!
Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate. The darker, the better.
Chocolate on anything, but yellow or peanut butter cupcakes are divine. 
My favorite is a vanilla Swiss Meringue buttercream. Yummy! Thanks for the giveaway…that apron is super cute. Would look great with my new cupcake cookbook and bookmark
.
Peanut Butter frosting! On chocolate cupcakes…yum! =)
My favorite is limeade cream cheese frosting.
Adorable!!! Blows my cow print apron out of the water!!
My fav frosting has to be butter pecan!!! whoa momma!
My favorite frosting is mocha french buttercream! alexpearson20@gmail.com
I’ve needed an apron forever. I love the cupcake theme on this one!
Love it!
My favorite EVER frosting is Chocolate Satin Frosting – my grandma has a recipe from yesteryear and it just blows them all out of the water.
Cute apron! I like good old chocolate frosting – not too sweet though, the chocolate flavor needs to come through.
I love the apron! My favorite is cream cheese frosting on a carrot cake cupcake.
That apron is SO precious!
Mmm, gotta love swiss meringue any day.
Love cream cheese frosting. These are very cute aprons!
Cream cheese icing is my favorite, homemade of course.
Love the apron! And my favorite frosting? Definetly cream cheese – perfect on anything!
Salted Carmel Buttercream – perfect on a chocolatey cupcake.
Great apron! My favorite is cream cheese frosting – preferably on a red velvet cupcake
I have two of my mom’s aprons from the 50′s!
I really enjoy a peppermint, chocolate frosting.
Pretty apron! Favorite frosting depends upon its base, but the ideal match for me is simple: milk chocolate frosting on yellow cupcakes (maybe with a bit of toasted coconut for an extra special treat).
That is by far the cutest apron I have ever seen and how perfectly fitting for this blog.
My favourite frosting is vanilla.
it’s probably after midnite where you live, but it’s just 3:35 here in hawaii. even if i don’t win the cupcake apron, i love it. i have a collection on vintage and new aprons that i wear when i cook and entertain.
aloha
oh! my fave frosting is chocolate peanut butter! sorry, read too fast.
Strawberry is my alltime favorite but it doesn’t work on all cupcakes of course. An apron is like a million other things I want but dont *need* so it’s not in the budget. Would be fun to win it though. Fingers crossed.
My favorite is definitely Italian meringue
My mom’s almond buttercream! Yum!
definitely fudge mocha frosting !
homemade of course
Beautiful
I have to second the cream cheese frosting myself. Although my waistline probably does not agree.
Cream cheese frosting with pineapple flavour is my favourite.
who DOESN’T like cream cheese frosting? YUM.
Cream cheese generally. Dark Chocolate for the specials.
The sour cream frosting with pecans that top my favorite carrot cake…nothing better.
I’m going to be typical and say cream cheese.
I love plain old fashioned buttercream frosting with sprinkles. Because sprinkles make everything better.
My sister-in-law’s Key Lime frosting is to die for! Wish I had the recipe! This apron would be a hit at the nationwide week long Bake for Hope bake sale benefitting Susan G Koman For the Cure Foundation! Go check out the site! Show off your baking for a good cause!
Such a tough decision! It’s a tie between cream cheese and a good vanilla frosting with specks of vanilla bean.
I love passion fruit buttercream!
Just one flavor! Well, I think it’s a tie between cream cheese and chocolate buttercream. Thanks for the opportunity to win that cuuuuute apron!
I love, love, love the apron! My fave would have to be german chocolate frosting…gooey, nutty yummmmm:)

I’m at a toss between chocolate ganache and cream cheese frosting, depends what the cake is
My favorite frosting by far is cream cheese.
I love Whipped Cream frostings that are light and fabulous!!!

cute apron! My favorite frosting is probably classic chocolate… possibly with a hazelnut twist (think Nutella!)
Chantilly cream!!! It’s yummy and light!
I love cupcakes and frostings of almost all flavors… yummy!
