Takes the Cupcake

A lot of things are more fun to eat on a stick.

Hot dogs, ice cream, even deep-fried Twinkies.

So it’s no surprise that cupcake lollipops – a signature item from Cute Cakes Hawai‘i – have been such a decadent hit.

Each mini chocolate cupcake is mounted on a stick and topped with chocolate frosting (either dark or white). They’re adorable and convenient – just one bite, and no sticky fingers.

Cute Cakes fired up the ovens in March, and they make other dainty treats too. Like the Cutie Catwalk, 10 mini cupcakes frosted to look like flowers served in a clear plastic lei container. It’s perfect for graduations, birthdays or any special occasional that calls for sugary sweetness.

All Cute Cakes (medium size as well as the minis) come in either Plain Jane Vanilla or Chocolate Diva flavors topped with vanilla, chocolate, lemon drop, strawberry and — get this! — li hing mui buttercream frosting.

Who wouldn’t want to be in this stick-y situation?
