Cupcakes the Hot New Bakery Product Could be Displayed in Many Varying Ways
By now I'm sure that you're aware: Cupcakes are the newest hot thing within the bakery business. Cake Decorating companies have seen improved sales of cupcake display type products. Cupcakes are perfect to sell during this economy, because the shopper does not need to buy a big cake, they can buy just a few cupcakes and save money. The cake itself in the cupcake is pretty much the same type batter as you would find in a regular birthday cake.
The "cupcake pick" has been around for a good time. It originally started from the small paper U.S. flag which was attached to the tip of the toothpick. The designs sure have changed but the concept will be same. Cupcake picks manufactured of plastic now, as opposed to wood and paper. They've been approved by the FDA to have contact with food, and are visibly marked if they do not pass the choke test. Normally, children under three shouldn't handle these items as they pose a choking hazard. As an alternative to picks, bakeries can choose cupcake rings. The rings are placed on the top, and acts as a present once the cupcake has been eaten.
Manufacturers have developed cupcake display stands. A few of these stands can hold up to 84 cupcakes at a time. The stands differ in price from $15 each to hundred of dollars each. They are manufactured from cardboard, wood, and plastic. One of the best selling stands is known as the Treat Tree™ and is manufactured by Bakery Crafts®. With the Treat Tree™ you can create thousands of themes and add a fresh flair to any function. The stand is simple to assemble, produced from food grade polystyrene, and are disposable. I like the unit because it is also grease and moisture resistant plus very lightweight. One more good thing about cupcake stands is that, not just do they hold cupcakes, they can be used to carry other small items for example petit fours, hors d' oeuvres', or other specialty cakes. Treat Trees™ are sold at stores that sellCake Decorating Supplies.
Cupcake candles are just making their appearance in our market. They're 3 1/4" in height and are created specifically to sit on the cupcake. The two varieties of candles that I've seen so far are present shaped candles and candles that look just like a cupcake! Various small Edible Image® are being developed for cupcakes. Edible Image® is an edible product similar to a decal, made from starches that peel off a backing sheet and applied to a baked item's icing. The picture on the Edible Image® melds into the icing for an incredible expert look.
Packaging for cupcakes has changed as well. I've seen tiny boxes which will hold a particular cupcake, double boxes, and clear clamshell packaging. A neat item which has been developed by Bakery Crafts® is something called Treat Wraps™. They're just different designed wraps that fit around the cupcake liner. The Treat Wraps™ add style and class to cupcakes, are reversible, and low priced. For extra details please visit our on line store.
