Cupcake enthusiasts can rejoice with a delightful tip that combines the flavor of a cupcake with the substance of a cake. The concept of a "cupcake sandwich," popularized by Bon Appetit in 2012, allows you to enjoy this unique treat. Start by purchasing a cupcake (or several, especially if you’re at Costco, known for its fantastic bakery).

How to Make a Cupcake Sandwich

To create your own "cupcake sandwich," follow these simple steps:

Purchase a Cupcake: Start with a delicious cupcake from Costco or your favorite bakery. Trim the Bottom Half: Carefully cut off the bottom half of the cupcake, which is the cake portion. Assemble the Sandwich: Push down and place the trimmed cake portion on top of the cupcake's frosting. This results in a delightful cupcake sandwich, with two cake buns surrounding a layer of frosting in the center.
