That is a really cute set but I am not so sure about the markers.  They don't wipe off the cupcakes very easily and definitely did NOT wash off my couch and walls!  Make sure you give them to an older child or always use them with your supervision!  The set is really cute even without the markers, though.  My son likes to switch out the frosting and "blow out" the candles.  The liners are flimsy, paper liners but you can replace them with real ones from the store or silicone ones to make them last longer.
