I've made cakes in oven proof coffee cups, but u have to make sure they say oven safe! I bought a white set (with a 20 percent coupon) at bed bath beyond - a full size cup set and espresso set. Not a mug but a nice shaped cup. It's more batter for the full size cup than a cupcake so you have to watch the oven for doneness. And I use vegetable spray inside the cup. No problem. Ive used chocolate cake, tried it frosted and unfrosted with a white frosting ring around the top. I haven't posted any pix but Ive also used a piece of a chocolate covered preztel for a handle! I'm still fine tuning this idea but for me coffee and cake in the same package is perfect!
This website has some ideas for cakes in jars, but I would think you could just do the same in cups. hth

Thank you theresaf! That's what I'm after. Can you post a pic or two whenever you get a chance? I thought I had read that it could be done in a cup like a coffee cup. The woman then sold the cake and mug or cup for X amount. I thought it was an unusual but cute idea.
You could try 5 Minute mug cake.
Done in the microwave...
I've baked cake in small canning jars. When I bake them I put the jars in a 10x13 pan with about and inch of water in the bottom. Never had a problem with breaking. I have instructions and pictures on my blog if you want to take a look.
Now that sounds like an interesting idea- I'll check out your blog and get back to you. 
Thank you!
Misty, I've uploaded my coffee cup pix here . This is actually the best photo I have. http://cakecentral.com/gallery/2158574
If this link doesn't work, just look at the latest photo (so far) in my gallery. Let me know if you try it too! Theresa
I make cupcakes and then put them in cute teacups and decorate them. I'll try to attach a picture but I am not sure if it will attach since I have been having problems uploading pictures on here for a while. If it doesn't attach, look in my photos. They are in there. Or actually... here is the link to them:

I LOVE the heart with chocolate and the coffee cake!!
Thanks Misty! It is soo nice to hear/read!! The heart is cake covered to look like a candy box ( I got the idea from a Bakerella blog and went from there!) as a little something for my husband. I made a smaller candy box for my niece too. I definitely want to do the coffee cup again but I haven't had the chance because of new ideas I have. I did make a large coffee cup cake for my dad for Father's Day but that wasn't an individual serving!! For that one I used a flavored pudding to look like coffee in the cup! I would use that idea in an individual serving too. Please post what you try!
