So..not exactly 'cake' related...but I am planning my daughters birthday party...it will be candy themed..but for the actually food, I'm thinking it would be fun to make real savory food look like candy/desserts.... I have found a few recipes online (pulled pork cupcakes/pizza cupcakes/sauage rolls-to look like cinnamon rolls) I was wondering if anyone has done anything like this...I"m hoping i can premake these the day ahead...and thenjust reheat in oven for the day of the party (all recipes i've came across say serve immediantly).

But if anyone has anything thoughts/already tried recipes that are great/ please let me know!! Thanks

My last cupcake,and the first in my gallery, is a savory cupcake. It's a meatball with marinara sauce mix so it's more like a meatloaf in each. I made it the mix "wetter" with the tomato sauce so it wouldn't be all dried out during it's cooking. For the frosting I used mashed potatoes tinted pink!

You could also make individual macaroni and cheese in cupcake tins - no liner . I haven't done this but I would definitely make for even an adult party! Just don't overcook so it stays moist!

I think it's. Very fun idea! Good luck!

I have used my muffin and mini muffin pans for savory dishes many times.

For variety, think of all savory things that can go in a piecrust.
