Ideas for mini cupcakes
Mini cupcakes are ideal finger food desserts. For a wedding or christening, choose white, gold or light pink; for a children's party, cheerful colours like orange, yellow and green. The skull cases suit a Halloween party, ice crystals and red-green the Christmas season and hearts Valentine's Day. Chocolates, small brownie cubes or chocolate confectionery also look especially pretty in mini cases and are easy to pick up from the buffet.
How to make perfect mini cupcakes
- Bake in a tray: use a suitable mini muffin tray, for example in stainless steel, place the paper cases in it, fill in the batter and pop it in the oven. Thanks to the tray, your mini muffins keep a nice round shape while baking.
- Fill only two thirds: the batter rises nicely without overflowing, and there is room left for the frosting.
- Shorten the baking time: mini cupcakes bake faster than large ones. Do the skewer test after about ten minutes.
- Choose a small nozzle: a small star nozzle is ideal for decorating, so the topping does not end up bigger than the cupcake.
What to look for when buying
Think about how many guests you expect: packs range from 12 to 200 cases. Bulk packs of 200 are worthwhile for drinks parties, company events or if you bake regularly; smaller packs of, for example, 12, 20, 35 or 36 are good for trying out colours for a particular theme. Also check the diameter so that the cases fit exactly into the cavities of your mini muffin tray. For a coordinated look, combine cases from one colour family, for example white with gold or pink with light pink.
