Kermit the Frog Giant Cupcake
As a kid, I loved watching the Muppets and have very fond memories of them. So it will come as no surprise that this Kermit the from big top cupcake is in my top 10. Sadly no recipe or making guide in the link but still a fantastic design and very well made.
Vanilla With Rainbow Sprinkles Giant Cupcake
Good guy indeed, this rather tasty looking big top cupcake does nothing else but look tasty and simple to replicate, sadly for us non-skilled bakers there is once again no making guide or recipe in the link, but you can, in fact, buy them!!!
Super Mario Mushroom Giant Cupcake
The nerd in me had to include this cool Super Mario inspired 1up big top cupcake, but it clearly says in the link that this was made via a packet mix! Which for me deserves an extra nod because it shows real creativity despite a low baking skill much like my own.
Conversation Hearts Giant Cupcake
What a simple but also rather delightful design this giant cupcake is. With its basic build underneath, but great use of love heart sweets and a chocolate door used to cover it I for one loved it.
Minnie Mouse Giant Cupcake
This Minnie Mouse big top cupcake brings an instant smile to the face, and while once again there is no making guide or recipe in the link it looks amazing!
Big Bad Wolf Giant Cupcake
This rather scary, but highly creative giant cupcake shaped like a wolf is not only a great idea, but it also is not that hard to replicate. Which is handy because once again there is no recipe or making guide in the link. (why would you post these sort of cakes without a recipe or making guide?!? Pure madness)
Minion Giant Cupcake
Now, this is what you call a touch of genius! This Minion big top cupcake inspired from the ‘Despicable me’ film is an absolute winner. I would have placed it much, much higher on this list if it came with a recipe or making guide, but sadly it doesn’t.
Cookie Dough Giant Cupcake
While this is not the classic style cupcake we see in all the others in this list it is one that made my mouth water the split second I saw it! It is called a “Cookie Dough Bowl” but the shape, mould and style are all giant cupcake owed! And best of all it comes with a simple to follow recipe and step by step making guide. (why can’t they all do that!?!)
Mars Bar Giant Cupcake
While the link doesn’t have a recipe or making guide it is one of the most amazing cupcakes I have ever seen, and just the fact that it is a giant cake makes it all the better.
Sweets and Cream Giant Cupcake
Nothing else even comes close to just how good this is made with chocolate malt balls, and biscuit fingers (if only I had known about this during my post “Top 10 Cakes Made With Chocolate Fingers”) it is not only mouth-watering but also a master class on how to make giant cupcakes.
As we’ve explored, giant cupcakes offer a unique and delightful twist on a beloved classic. Whether you choose a whimsical theme or an elegant design, each of these ten ideas brings something special to the table, making your celebration even more memorable.
