Filled cupcakes offer a plethora of flavor combinations and options. For
decades, cupcake corers have been used AFTER the cupcake is baked. Although
the norm, this method comes with it’s challenges:
Messy — Removing the center of a baked cupcake can easily tear the cake
Time consuming — Each cupcake must be individually cored, filled, and
reassembled Wasteful — The removed cake centers are typically discarded
Inconsistent results — Variations in pressure and angle lead to uneven
cavities
Using a piping bag to fill is another common method. Simply insert a piping
tip into the baked cupcake to inject a smooth filling. Although faster than
coring, it has its own limitations:
Minimal filling — The piping tip can only push in a small amount of filling
Unpredictable distribution — There’s no way to know where the filling ends
up inside the cupcake No defined cavity — Without a structured space,
fillings can settle unevenly or disappear into the cake. The solution is
the patented Cupcake Cork. It has been designed to create an indentation in
the center of a cupcake DURING the baking process, which allows for
effortless filling insertion. Efficiency: Say goodbye to the hassle of
using separate pans or manually removing cake centers The distribution of
the batter bakes the cupcakes in less time Works for all filling types
(creme, fruit, candy, cookie dough, etc.)
Cost savings: No more wasted cake after baking Use less batter for the same
size cupcake The Cupcake Cork makes the cupcakes look larger than they are
Consistency: Eliminate the guesswork of how much filling there is for each
cupcake Convenience: Streamline the baking process An inexpensive option to
add to existing cupcake pans
Versatility: Available in (2) sizes cupcake pans size Jumbo Standard
