What cake should I get for my child’s upcoming birthday?
A Giant Cupcake is ideal for kids' birthdays and children’s events, where guests can easily share slices. The big cupcake design is playful yet versatile, available in themes such as pastel swirls, chocolate drips, or bright rainbow toppings. It’s an easy alternative to a traditional round cake.
What is the difference between a cupcake and a giant cupcake?
A regular cupcake is a single-serve treat, while a Giant Cupcake is a full-size cake designed for group celebrations. The large cupcake includes layered cake, frosting, and decorative piping—just like individual cupcakes, but scaled up for sharing. It offers the same homemade style in a larger, sculpted format.
What flavours are available for giant cupcakes?
The Cupcake Factory’s Giant Cupcakes come in popular flavours such as vanilla, chocolate, red velvet, and marble. Each flavour is paired with smooth buttercream for a classic finish. Custom combinations are available for themed events or colour-matched designs.
