Cupcake Bites
Cupcake bites are super cute mini cupcakes wrapped in chocolate that you can serve at birthday parties, baby showers, bridal showers and other celebrations.
Cupcake bites have become a very popular party treat. These adorable cupcakes are simple to make and will look lovely displayed on your party table in a stand, vase or in a custom made centerpiece. You can also send these cupcake bites home as party favors by wrapping them in FDA approved bags and attaching colorful curling ribbon.
There are three fun ways to make these cupcake bites. You can use a candy mold, flower cutter or the My Little Cupcake Mold. You have the option of creating these bites on a stick as a cake pop or without a stick.

How To Make Cupcake Bites Using a Candy Mold

- Crumble the cake into a fine consistency and place in a large bowl
- Add frosting into the bowl with the cake mix and blend (use about 1/2 container store bought frosting or 1/3 cup homemade)
- Roll cake into balls, set onto wax paper and chill in the refrigerator for a few hours
- Fill the cavaties in the candy mold with melted chocolate about 1/3 full
- Place the cake balls into the mold pushing down gently until the chocolate comes up around the edges

No Bake Cupcake Bites
Using the My Little Cupcake Mold
The My Little Cupcake Mold can also be used to create cupcake bites pop. These cupcake bites require no baking.
All you need is the mold, a package of oreo cookies, cream cheese, chocolate melts, lollipop sticks and sprinkles.
Basically, you grind the oreo cookies in a food processor and then mix the cookie crumbs with cream cheese. Form your cake balls and then place them into the My Little Cupcake Mold. Close the mold and remove any excess cake. Pop the cupcake bite out of the mold, dip in melted chocolate and insert a lollipop stick. Then, dip the other side of the cupcake in chocolate and add your spinkles and other decorations.
