NEW & NOTEWORTHY

· Cupcake chic, Part I: Leave it to a mom to come up with a gizmo for toting cupcakes. The Cupcake Courier, designed by Jennifer Gunn of Altadena, Calif., is a five-piece molded plastic carrier. It has three stackable trays with 36 compartments, a detachable base and a roomy cover with handle; fully assembled, it is about the size of a portable sewing machine cas e. The unit can be used as a cake carrier. $32.99; to order online, go to http://www.cupcakecourier.com.

· Cupcake chic, Part II: Wilton's Silly-Feet! silicone baking cups are reusable and come in a four-piece multicolored set, $9.99, available at Michaels craft stores or online at http://www.michaels.com.

· Cupcake chic, Part III: Wilton's striped paper baking cups have designer style; standard (75-pack, $1.99) and mini (100-pack, $1.99) sizes, also available at Michaels.

· Look no further to find modernistic serving bowls for a cosmic salad or Space Age stew. By Vollrath, these sleek beauties are double-wall insulated and made with heavy-gauge stainless steel. The intended advantage: Foods maintain their optimal temperature longer. The 1-quart angled bowl is $30; the 1.9-quart, $48. Both may be ordered from La Cuisine, 323 Cameron St., Alexandria; 703-836-4435, http://www.lacuisineus.com.
