Bite-Sized Creme Brulee Cakes

This 'Cupcake Project' Recipe is a Multi-Layered Delight

— August 31, 2012 — Lifestyle
For those looking for an interesting dessert alternative to serve, the 'Cupcake Project' creme brulee cupcakes are what you have been searching for. With an array of tastes and textures, this recipe will keep your taste buds on their toes.

The top of the Cupcake Project cupcakes features a crunchy layer of caramelized sugar. Below this crunchy cavity-inducing topping is a blanket of sweet butter cream and a light-as-air cake batter base.

Creme brulee has escaped the boundaries of white ceramic dishes and been integrated into the world of glorious cupcakes. The cupcakes and the creme brulee are made separately, and are later combined to construct the finished product. With so many flavors of creme brulee currently available, bakers can add festive flavor to a recipe already jam-packed with deliciousness.
Trend Themes
1. Creme Brulee Cupcakes - The merging of creme brulee with cupcakes presents opportunities for innovative and exciting variations and presentations, including incorporating different flavors or using alternative bases.
2. Multi-textured Desserts - The combination of layers and textures in the creme brulee cupcakes demonstrates the potential for desserts that provide multiple sensory experiences and can be leveraged in other desserts like trifles, pudding and cakes.
3. Separately Prepared Dessert Components - The separate preparation of the creme brulee element and the cupcake base opens up possibilities for new hybrid desserts as well as the convenient use of pre-made components in assembly.
Industry Implications
1. Bakery - Bakeries can creatively enhance their offerings with creme brulee cupcakes, making available unique and mouth-watering creations.
2. Catering - Creme brulee cupcakes provide an opportunity for caterers to incorporate an elegant and sophisticated dessert without the need for fine china and utensils.
3. Home Cooking Appliances - Home cooking appliances can be designed and marketed more effectively to create desserts that emulate or convey the distinctly pleasing visually appealing experience of the creme brulee cupcakes.
