The Original Crumbs Bakeshop offers cupcakes in a variety of sizes to suit different occasions, and the new Crumbs Colossal Cupcake weighs in at 60 ounces so that it's large enough to serve an entire party. This soon-to-be-viral dessert is available in two premium flavors, Vanilla Birthday Cake and Cookies & Cream. While the Vanilla Birthday Cupcake features a piñata-style sprinkle surprise filled on the inside, the Crumbs Colossal Cupcake in Cookies & Cream tucks cookies and cream-infused buttercream filling into a rich chocolate cake.
Created for festive celebrations, holidays, office parties and beyond, the Crumbs Colossal Cupcake is a statement-making alternative to traditional sheet cakes or layer cakes that deliver the fresh, comforting taste of a homemade treat.
