I purchased these as a gift and had them shipped to CA (where I was spending xmas with my family) and they arrived in a cute little white box with a bif blue bow. Adorable. I almost didnt open the box before giving them to my friend, and I am glad I did! They were smushed! Dont get me wrong, not like they were stepped on but certainly not gift quality. Thankfully I had a few days to find another gift for my friend and I kept them for myself. As bath bombs they are GREAT! They smell nice and dissolve enough (stuff still left behind in the tub, though). I was just really disapointed when I opened the box to not find cute little cupcakes.
