A jumbo cupcake is a novelty cake shaped like an oversized version of the classic treat. Standing tall at around 25cm, it’s layered with fluffy sponge and buttercream, then decorated to suit your theme.

- Cover the base with buttercream or fondant.
- Pipe colourful swirls of icing on top.
- Add toppers like Peppa Pig figurines, flowers, or clouds to finish the look.
While it’s fun to try, getting the tall shape and neat finish can be tricky, which is why many parents prefer ordering a professional cake like the Peppa Pig Giant Cupcake that’s already styled and ready for the party.
