The World’s Top 10 Best Giant Cupcakes

The World’s Top 10 Best Giant Cupcakes

Giant Cupcake

As I have told you all before, once upon a time I had great plans to open up my own cupcake shop. But happily I didn’t because the World of selling cupcakes is completely saturated with people much like myself that like to cook cakes, but can’t really do it very well.  One cupcake I love the look of but have never made myself is the Giant one, so join me as I try and find out just how good people can make these mini giants…

10 – Miss Piggy says “YES!”

As a kid I loved watching the Muppets and have very fond memories of them. So it will come as no surprise that this Kermit the from big top cupcake is in my top 10. Sadly no recipe or making guide in the image link but still a fantastic design and very well made.

9 – Good Guy Colossal

Good guy indeed, this rather tasty looking big top cupcake does nothing else but look tasty and simple to replicate, sadly for us non-skilled bakers there is once again no making guide or recipe in the image link, but you can in fact buy them!!!

8 – 1UP

The nerd in me had to include this cool Super Mario inspired 1up big top cupcake, but it clearly says in the image link that this was made via a packet mix! Which for me deserves an extra nod because it shows real creativity despite a low baking skill much like my own.

7 – Love is in the air!

What a simple but also rather delightful design this giant cupcake is. With it’s basic build underneath, but great use of love heart sweets and a chocolate door used to cover it I for one loved it. Sadly, once again there is no making guide or recipe in the image link.

6 – Don’t take the Mickey!

This Minnie Mouse big top cupcake brings an instant smile to the face, and while once again there is no making guide or recipe in the image like it looks amazing!

5 – Little Read Riding hoods Party Cake

This rather scary, but highly creative giant cupcake shaped like a wolf is not only a great idea, but it also is not that hard to replicate. Which is handy because once again there is no recipe or making guide in the image link. (why would you post these sort of cakes without a recipe of making guide?!? Pure madness)

4 – I find this Despicable!

Now this is what you call a touch of genius! This Minion big top cupcake inspired from the ’Despicable me’ film is a absolute winner. I would have placed it much, much higher in this list if it came with a recipe of making guide, but sadly it doesn’t.

3 – Ice Ice Baby!

While this is not the classic style cupcake we see in all the others in this list it is one that made my mouth water the split second I saw it! It is called a “Cookie Dough Bowl” but the shape, mould and style are all giant cupcake owed! And best of all it comes with a simple to follow recipe and step by step making guide. (why can’t they all do that!?!)

2 – A Giant Mars Cupcake a day helps you work, rest and play!

While the image link doesn’t have a recipe or making guide it is one of the most amazing cupcakes I have ever seen, and just the fact that it is a giant cake makes it all the better.

1 – The Chocolate Finger Master Piece

Nothing else even comes close to just how good this is, made with chocolate malt balls, and biscuit fingers (if only I had known about this during my post “Top 10 Cakes Made With Chocolate Fingers“) it  is not only mouth watering, but also a master class on how to make giant cupcakes. Both recipe and making guide in the image link.

 Here is a Video on how to make these amazing giant cupcakes, it is a little long, but well worth watching for the laughs and advice.

Over the weeks and months of doing this blog we have all got to see some truly amazing cupcakes. From Easter ones to shoe shaped ones, they are all a showcase of the bakers skills and creativity. But some of them I would consider a little hard to make. What we really need is a cupcake that is easy, simple and fun to make, but above all tasty. Maybe this little tasty summer treat is the answer to our needs…

9 – Plain Jane

The image link doesn’t contain any recipe or making guide, but the image makes for a great example of what goes into making a plain ice cream cupcake. Just an ice-cream cone, sponge and a bit of cream topping is all that is required to make these tasty little treats.

8 – Hard top, soft bottom!

What was so impressive about this one is that unlike all the others in this list, the ice cream cone is in fact made from sponge! And what is more the ice-cream top is also made from sponge and all thanks to a special ice cream cupcake tin! Well worth checking it out I think, so get clicking on that image.

7 – The one for us all.

With a simple, but great design these are the ones that most of us will probably have a go at making. With a idiots guide to making them in the image link it would be very hard to go wrong. So if you fancy making a ice cream cone cupcake this might well worth a look

These stunning rainbow sponge cone cakes are amazing and perfect for a party treat. There is a rather good making guide and recipe in the image link, but I suspect they will still require some skills to make them. But well worth a go!

The World’s Top 10 Best Cupcakes Made With Cadburys Creme Eggs

The World’s Top 10 Best Cupcakes Made With Cadburys Creme Eggs.

Cadbury Creme Egg cupcakes

“I am so sorry!” I had to say that before anyone kicks off about being on a diet or how their keyboards have broken because of drool between the keys. It is Easter time after all and while it may well be a religious celebration it is also about the day when the kids (and the kids inside us adults) get to eat our own body weight in chocolate. So it is time for those on a diet or own a “non drool proof” keyboard to stop reading this post and close the browser, but for the rest of us let the madness commence…

10 – Fun Size Or No Size! (source)
The fact that they are “mini” Cadbury Creme Eggs means that they are half the size, half the calories, and therefore can eat twice as many of these cupcakes!!! While I can not comfit the nutritional values of these cupcakes I am sure that is how it would work. So why are you still reading? Click on the (source) link and get making! (then send them to me)

Hi-Hat Creme Egg Cupcakes

9 – Top hat and tails. (source)

This is what is called a Hi-Hat Cupcake. The top is in fact a marshmallow frosting “hat” but the cupcake also contains a whole Chocolate creme egg under its hat! Sadly no recipe or making guide in the source link but still amazing none the less!

8 – Taking off our rose-tinted glasses. (source)

These amazing Cupcakes are just what I love. They are messy, not the best looking but you just know they will taste so amazing your whole family will be fighting over them! It is all very well having a great image of a cupcake but most of us will never end up with anything that looks like it should so these look more than prefect. A full guide and recipe is available via the (source) link.

7 – In, out, shake it all about! (source)

Simple, tasty and amazing to look at, this rather mouth-watering cake is enough to send anyone into a sugar coma, but isn’t that part of what makes these so cool!?! Anyway, sadly there is no making guide or recipe in the source link, but if you take a look at number 4′s (source) link it will give you a rough guide

6 – Keeping a lid on things (source)

What I loved about these ones is that the buttercreme is made using the insides of a Cadbury’s Crème Egg scooped out! Even that sounds amazing to top it off let alone using the now empty creme egg as a hard chocolate lid! Want to make your own? Well get clicking on that (source) link and you will find a great guide and recipe!

5 – Stuck in the middle with you. (source)

Here is a strange one for you, these cupcake don’t actually contain any Cadburys Creme Eggs, but are inspired by them! I decided to include them for a couple of reason, they are from a cool WordPress Blogger “Sweet Cherrie Pie“, they look amazing and in the (source) link it has a good guide and recipe. But also while they don’t contain any real creme eggs it would not exist without them, so for that reason it makes my top 10 list.

4 – The sexy Red Head! (source)

Oh my! While this one is much the same as number 6 the pink icing top makes it stand out just that bit better. Not only is it from a fellow WordPress blogger “The Blissful Bakker” but if you click on the (source) link it will not only take you to a great guide and recipe to making these, but also a rough guide to making much the same thing we saw in number 7!

These rather colourful cupcakes are the work of a fellow wordpress blogger “Hilary Makes” and are definitely one of the best visually. They are very colourful, tasty looking and come with a rather nice guide to make them in the (source) link.

Bacon & Egg Cupcakes

1 – Everything tastes better with bacon! …doesn’t it?!? (source)

How dirty could a cupcake be? What about one made with Real Bacon , a Cadbury’s creme egg & some peanut butter? Well that ladies and cupcake munchers is EXACTLY what you are looking at. Don’t think about it just click on the (source) link, make some, then tell me what they taste like, because I am just not brave enough to try them.

>>>>>>>BONUS SECTION <<<<<<<<

Did you enjoy number 3?!? Well the other day after I had already wrote this blog post I decided to pay a visit to the shop that sells them! Did they have cupcakes? Oh yes! And Sweets, and “Mud Pie” Milkshakes! The shop owner was amazing and if you are ever in Bristol, UK why not pop in and grab a cupcake because I can tell you that after having one I know that making it number 3 in this top 10 is very justified indeed.

WHY NOT ORDER SOME YOURSELF!!! (UK ONLY)
