How many mini cupcakes per cake mix? ›

Mini cupcakes are fun and easy to make. One box of Betty Crocker cake mix will make about 60 mini cupcakes. Fill the cupcake pan about 1/2 to 2/3 full. Easiest way - fill a food storage bag with the batter, clip a corner and squeeze batter into cups.

Lunchbox cakes are a style of mini cake. The individual cake layers range in diameter from 3-4 inches (7.5-10 cm), though I have seen some that are larger. My lunchbox cakes contain two or three layers, which ends up being 4-5 inches (10-13 cm) wide after it's frosted.

The recommended amount of batter to fill a mini cupcake liner is 1 tablespoon. And as is the case with a regular cupcake, the liner should be filled ⅔ of the way full to avoid flat tops.

Give yourself an hour between the time your cupcakes come out of the oven and the time you need to frost them. Even if they feel cool on the top, they could still be retaining heat on the inside. Any residual heat in the cupcake can cause your perfectly piped frosting to melt.

2 minis in 1 cupcake. I use the slightly larger 1 1/2 x 1 mini liners. They do not fit in the regular pans in the store. The 'regular' mini has a diameter of 1 1/4 inches.

Take the cookie scoop and release the batter into the cupcake liner. We use a medium scoop and fill 2/3 full. Enjoy watching your cupcakes bake perfectly!

Named for having little to no frosting, naked cakes have been a popular choice for years! These elegant cakes with a slightly rustic feel are suitable for any special occasion.

Petit fours are delicate little cakes that originated in France. Their name translates to “small oven” in English as petit fours were baked with the residual heat of brick ovens used for breadmaking in the past. The bakers would use the lower heat to make pastries, and thus their name was coined.

We recommend one standard-sized cupcake per guest. If you prefer minis, we suggest two to three minis per guest.

Most cupcakes bake well between 325°F and 375°F. Conveniently, these are the same temperatures that cakes are usually baked at too. You can probably use the temperature the cake recipe calls for, or you can adjust it if you're looking for specific results.
