# Wine-Infused Pink Cupcakes The Strawberry Moscato Dessert Works for People Watching Their Weight By Alyson Wyers | Published 2015-08-19 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pink-cupcakes References: [buzzfeed](http://www.buzzfeed.com/lindsayn8/21-delicious-desserts-made-better-with-booze-e258) & [eat-yourself-skinny](http://www.eat-yourself-skinny.com/2013/03/strawberry-moscato-cupcakes.html) While these pink cupcakes might look innocent and girly, in reality they are only girly. The boozy dessert contains Moscato wine, making them more appropriate for girly girls who have grown up a little bit. Made by Kelly from the blog Eat Yourself Skinny, the Strawberry Moscato Cupcakes are an alcoholic treat perfect for adult tea parties and other feminine gatherings. To recreate these cheeky pink cupcakes at home, you will need a box of your favorite [strawberry cake mix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberry-cake-mix), plain greek yogurt, eggs, sugar-free vanilla frosting (or the sugary kind if you don't care) plus [Skinnygirl Moscato wine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bartenura-lychee-moscato). For bonus points, you can color the icing pink with food coloring for a little something extra. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 67% | Activity: 5% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Moscato Desserts:** There is an opportunity for bakeries and restaurants to create more desserts infused with Moscato wine. - **Alcoholic Desserts:** There is a potential for creating more desserts that contain alcohol, targeting the adult market. - **Gourmet Cupcakes:** Creating more gourmet cupcakes can be a way for bakeries to stand out in the market. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Bakery:** Bakeries can expand their product lines to create wine-infused cupcakes and other gourmet desserts. - **Restaurant:** Restaurants can add Moscato-infused desserts to their menus as an upscale item. - **Wine Industry:** Wineries can partner with bakeries and dessert companies to create and market Moscato-infused desserts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ready-to-Pour Mango Mimosas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ready-to-serve-mimosas.md) - [Espresso Martini Cupcakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/espresso-martini-cupcake.md) - [Creamy Boozy Desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-cream-and-wine.md) - [Wine-Infused Brownie Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brownie-cookie.md) - [Juicy Watermelon Wines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/watermelon-moscato.md) - [Collaboration Gin-Inspired Cupcakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gordons-divine-duo-cupcakes.md) - [Effervescent Soft Pink Wines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cupiolo-prosecco-ros.md) - [Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Rosés](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparkling.md) - [Spiced Beer-Infused Cupcakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beerinfused-cupcake.md)
