Karen and Alan tends Bar at food network CANDY event

Mini Cupcake Cocktails

We have been in love with our cupcake cocktails ever since we designed them to our news newsletter (if you do not know whether what is newsletter please go sign to the next question www.hellocupcakebook.com where you will also find directions in order to make these little potions).


When the remote control functionality of food network's wine and Food Festival and Jelly Belly came to us and asked if we would be interested in participating in this event at this year's Festival SWEETS tr?de we Cupcake Cocktails would be perfect. Then we found out we need to earn 1000 of the event, when we invented the Mini Cupcake Cocktail.


This small drink is now not a full cupcake like our Cupcake Cocktail full size. You need to actually use the cupcake. It can also be done with frozen pound cake (Sara Lee). But we are of rightholders against cupcake. In order to make the Mini Cocktail, we filled the bottom of a mini Martini glass with about 10 of any single favor by Jelly Belly Cocktail classics jelly beans. So we added a 3/8 inch slices of cupcake cut into 1 1/2 inch circle on top of the beans. Next we topped cupcake slices with frosting tinted in vibrant cocktail colors to match beans and garnished with additional beans of the same taste and a cocktail fork. What a fun small dessert. It is precisely the right part, when you know you want tasting other desserts, easy to carry around an event or a party, and just as easy to eat while you mixed with cocktail fork is part of the design.


This event was amazing. It was who's who in food and restaurants in New York City. Jean George, Tom Colicchio, Francois Payard, Daniel Boulud, Stanford Tavern and Clinton Street baking to mention just a few of the more than 50 participants. Food Network's Guy Fieri Sandra Lee was there, as well as and cake Nobel prizes as Ben Israel. Once we got to meet Ace cakes Duff Goldman!


We did this fantastic Mini Cupcake Cocktail Tower for the table.
There is a little light in the tower for the effect dramatic lighting.


Of course, the further we not everywhere without maize COB Cupcakes!

But underneath is the fun part.It is where we hide our slices of cupcake and even more Jelly Belly beans.
We used the Peach Bellini and pomegranate Cosmo and frosting in matching shades of yellow, and pink.

It had iridescent frosting and striking the city scenes in a spiral around the design of the cake. Gorgeous!

Lighting Mini Cupcake Cocktail Tower was Tammie's inspiration.
Thank Tammie and thanks to the Jelly Belly for inviting us.
We love your prayers!


What a fantastic event. We were charmed everyone we met and had a fabulous time. We believe our Mini Cupcake Cocktails was a big hit with the crowd. We recommend this small dessert for any fun party or event.
