Now the question is: Do you tell guests there is a gumball inside or let them find out for themselves? Personally, I would leave it a mystery knowing that my friends would probably split the cupcake in half anyways to see if they can find the surprise.
Cake of the Week: Gumballs and Rock Candy
I love this week’s Cake of the Week. They are actually cupcakes and boy do they scream pink cuteness! These Bubble Gumball Surprise Cupcakes are topped with strawberry swiss meringue buttercream and a sprinkling of pink rock candy crystals. A Little Zaftig – you now officially get an ‘A’ in my book. What a great combo and to add a surprise? Even better!
This cupcake sparks a party idea too! Wouldn’t this be great for a gender reveal party? Changing the color of the frosting and rock candy to a gender neutral color is simple. All you would have to do is pop in a gumball that is either pink or blue that will reveal the gender of the baby when this little yummy is being enjoyed. Fantastic idea and cupcake! I am marking it down in my party ideas notebook.
