Once again, HSN has found the sweet spot where crafters, bakers and gadget-lovers meet. Provo Craft will launch its new electronic cutter — specifically designed for decorating cakes, cupcakes, cookies and confections — on the network this month. Cricut Cake will be available for sale on hsn.com beginning April 12, with an official launch on HSN on April 14, 2010 at 12:01 AM (ET). Describing the new product, Nancy Caplan, svp of merchandising, employs the alliteration “decorative device,” and referring to its audience, “culinary crafters.” I like those, but let’s add “confectionary crafters,” too.
