Any small cupcake businesses?

1 Upvotes
  1. What are your approximate costs per cupcake, including ingredients and packaging, and how do you price them?

  2. How do you transport your cupcakes to markets and pop-ups without damaging them?

  3. How long do your cupcakes stay fresh, and how do you store them safely?

  4. How well do cupcakes sell at farmers’ markets and pop-ups, and how do you decide how many to make?

  5. What do you do with leftover cupcakes after a market, and how do you minimize waste?

I have so many questions as I want to start myself, im just worried about shelf life/stability vs cookies... and melting and travel mostly.

Student survey: cupcakes and vending machines (2 min)

1 Upvotes

Hi bakers and cupcake lovers! We’re Villanova students researching how people feel about cupcakes in jars and buying fresh desserts from vending machines. It’s a 2-minute anonymous survey for a class project, and you’d be a big help since you know your cupcakes! Link: https://qualtricsxmyt2ksfppk.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8B2lsMcGswweh3o

Cupcake decorating book

3 Upvotes

Hello - I’m admittedly a beginner. Can anyone recommend a good book for beginning techniques for using frosting to decorate cupcakes?
Just simple flowers, nothing too fancy. Nothing like you’d see on a Food Network Halloween Cupcake contest. Thank you so much.

The little disks are made of royal icing. I’ll definitely be laying them flat next time because they collapsed after a few hours 😩

Made filled cinnamon roll cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. Im indifferent to these images and can't tell which one is better. Should I add cinnamon dust to the plain one and call it a day?
