I remember reading a while back about someone selling individual cupcakes and packaging them in clear disposable cups. I thought it was on this board. Can anyone help?? I have searched and searched and cannot find the post. I need to know what size the cup was. If anyone has any recollection of this please let me know. Thanks a bunch!
It is the 5 oz cups. I saved the instructions for the cupcake bouquets if you need those too let me know.
Hope that helps!
Your welcome!! I found the cups but haven't tried making one yet. Good luck and be sure to post a picture of your cupcakes.
Hi!
I too am looking at different ways to package just one cupcake at a time and tried to find your original post on this but could not find it. Could you please tell me where you purchased and what exactly you found worked best for you for packaging one cupcake at a time? I read that you used a 5 ounce cup, but wasn't sure what it looked like or where you found it.
Thanks so much! ![]()
I haven't made them yet but here are the instructions I saved that I found. I wish I knew who originally posted them but I didn't save it right and can't remember. There are several posted in the gallery. I am betting it was one of those people who posted it. It may have been mbarajas2327 but I am not sure.
Creating those gorgeous cupcake bouquets
Here are the instructions on how to make the cupcake bouquets with some pictures also
Supplies:
19 cupcakes
19 5 oz. plastic cups
30 inches of cake ruffle (whatever color matches your theme)
One 10 1/2 inch plastic plate
Stapler
Icing Tip # 2D
Decorations (Theme of your choice, use cake toppers for the center and you may use cupcake picks, sugar layons, edible sprinkles, cupcake rings, etc. to decorate all 19 cupcakes.
Instructions:
First begin with stapling the 19 cups together. Get one cup as the center and staple 6 cups around that one cup, then staples the remainder 12 cups all around the 6 cups, it will then give you a shape of a bouquet. ( I attached a picture so you can see what it has to look like)
Second get your 10" plate and cut out the edges. Then staple the cake ruffle all around the plate.
Third, insert your 19 cupcakes in each cup.
Fourth, lets decorate!! You will need your icing tip 2D with your frosting ( the frosting can be anykind you want as long as its white. Example buttercream or pastry pride whip topping.
Using tip and icing decorate the cupcakes. You can color the icing with cupcake color mist or you can color the icing before you decorate with icing color die. Then put the sprinkles all around the top of icing. Then in the center put your main cake topper. Last put the rest of decorations on each cupcake like picks, rings, and sugar layons.
Last if you want to transport the cupcakes in your car, use a 14" cake box and cut the top off the box and cut a 10" circle in the center of the top you cut off. After you cut the circle out fold the sides of the top 2 times then insert the top inside your 14" box. That will keep the cupcakes from moving anywhere. Place the cupcake bouquet w/plate in your 14"box
I love the above idea! Also When I just want to give someone one cupcake I will do what I have done in my avitar (hope I spelled that right.) I fold a paper towel and then sit the cupcake in a small flower pot that I buy at Michaels and put a little ribbon with 2 sided tape around the rim of the pot. It also looks nice for a garden party.
Thank you for posting the information! I appreciate it. ![]()
