How To Make Cupcake Cakes
cupcake cakes
You’ve seen them before… the cupcakes that are ‘somehow’ arranged
and decorated like cakes!
Some people call them pull away cakes, cupcake cakes… whatever…
they’re all the same thing ~ an arrangement of cupcakes that makes it
easy and fun for everyone.
Think about this ~ no mess, no clean up… no need for paper plates,
forks, and all that! Simply grab a cupcake and ENJOY!
No longer do you have to miss out on a greatly decorated cake, just
because you prefer cupcakes! You can have it both ways!
In this book, you’ll learn how with step by step pictures and directions
along with pictures of a few of our cupcake cakes. As an added bonus
I’ll show you how to make cupcake cakes by two different methods!
Step two:
Prepare your cake batter or if you want to ‘cheat’ use a boxed mix.
Step four:
Bake cupcakes until done
Step five:
Remove cupcakes from oven and cool on wire rack
Step eleven:
Once you have a smooth base layer, you can begin decorating.
Design it up, be creative, let the creative juices flow!!!
After putting the main design on, simply place a border around
the entire cake and you’re DONE!!
There is another method to making cupcake cakes, but it’s a bit trickier than the
previously outlined method.
This comes in handy though if you want to make a certain shape and don’t want to lay
out each and every cupcake on a cake board.
1) You simply get the shaped cake pan that you desire (above picture was done using a
heart shaped cake pan).
2) Place double lined cupcake liners in the cake pan
3) Fill each cupcake liner to the top with cake batter (this will enable to the cupcakes to
bake up and connect with each other, forming a complete layer of cake)
4) Bake cupcakes until done
5) Remove from oven and cool briefly IN the pan
6) Now comes the ‘tricky’ part. You will need TWO cake boards for this. You will place
one cake board over the top of the cake pan and carefully flip the cake pan over so it’s
now on top of the cake board. Then take the second cake board and place on the ‘top’
of the cupcake cake (which is now face down on the other board – you may also want to
place some icing on the second cake board so when you flip it all again the cupcakes
stay in place) Now, flip the cake boards and remove the top one so that the cupcakes
are face up and ready to be decorated. (some people don’t like this method because
they don’t like to take a chance with all the ‘flipping’)
7) You may also want to tie curling ribbon or string around the entire cupcake cake to
ensure the cupcakes stay together.
8) Then simply decorate as normal and enjoy.
