Quick question, I am correct in thinking that cupcakes can be used in future Mod challenges, if we don't need to use them for this 7% challenge?

Emailed Puzzle #53 for Cerulean (AKA "Hobbit Blue")
A third puzzle for a “bouncing” delight,
Spot the differences by moonlight.
It might be a little trouble,
Worth it though, for a book to count double.
PUZZLE #54 - Spot the Difference: “Hunting by Moonlight”Please DO NOT post solution here. Mail to ratminichallenges@gmail.com with Puzzle # in subject line. Be sure to tell me what Team you are assigned, though I have most of you memorized!
For this puzzle there are at least eight (8) differences between the side-by-side pictures. They can be very, very subtle differences, such as high-light and shadow.
Third in series.

Hooray for another word search (pastry related, no less!) and another Spot the Difference! Those Spot the Difference pictures you're using are so pretty.

Look at all the "buddy reads" we're doing,
And there are several more brewing.
It is neat to check out the covers,
And talk about what one discovers.
PUZZLE #55: Jigsaw puzzle "June Buddy Reads" - here. Select "50 Piece Tri-Clip." Okay to post in thread.
Today on the Cupcake Spreadsheet I'll be a bit mute.
I'm going out to pick some fresh fruit.
Later tonight, when I get back.
I promise your updates I'll attack.
A “bouncing” cupcake puzzle, a fourth.
And your book total goes north.
A “chunkster” counts twice as much,
Which is really a nice touch.

You'll start off with "elope,"
and end in the city of sin.
No need for a priest or pope,
We're sure a cupcake you'll win!
