Mini Kupcake Konz & a - closed


This giveaway is now closed.

Yesterday I told you how much I love Kupcake Konz pans when I made cute Christmas Cupcake Cones.  Today, I want to share with you the cute cupcakes I made using their Mini Kupcake Konz pan.


I found the cutest little mini ice cream cones; Joy Cones' Kid Cones!  We love ice cream at our home and we all love ice cream cones.  However, using a traditional sized ice cream cone always felt like way too much ice cream to give to a child!

Anyway, the moment I saw Kid Cones, I knew those were the perfect proportion cone for a child!

And Kupcake Konz sells a mini cone pan that fits these small kid cones perfectly!

So I decided to keep things simple and use a white cake mix....what can I say, I'm a sucker for white cake mix cupcakes!


For some reason it cracked me up that the cones don't even touch the counter...but the ice cream cones stayed secure in the Kupcake Konz pan while I filled, baked, cooled and decorated the cupcakes!

I love it when a product works just as it says it is supposed to and Kupcake Konz most certainly did!


For the mini cones you will want to put your batter into the wide-mouthed squeeze bottle.  I forgot to take a photo of me using this with the mini cones, so here I am using it with the regular sized cones!  But you can use the squeeze bottle to fill any sized cone - mess free!


You will bake your cones at 350 until a toothpick comes out clean.

Then ice them after they are cool.  I used one my favorite short cuts; put icing in a ziploc bag, cut the tip off and pipe the icing on.  I love that I get a great looking cupcake without any tips to clean or expensive bags to buy.


Oh.  And I also love peppermint sprinkles.  Yum!
