Ready to Bake Pillsbury Gingerbread Stuffed Cupcake Kit?

From cute gingerbread men to the iconic gingerbread house, the holiday treats fill the dessert table. The new Gingerbread Stuffed Cupcake Kit delights with a twist on the classic flavor.

First, the baking kit is easy to follow. Whether it is a first time baker or a person who often makes recipes from scratch, this kit makes the whole process easy.

In particular, the cream cheese flavored frosting bakes in the middle of the cupcake. No one has to scoop, pipe, or otherwise fill the center. It is as simple as pour and bake.

One baked, the spicy, cozy cupcake breaks open to reveal the tangy, sweet center. It is the surprise and delight that has people craving another bite.

The reason why this idea works is the contrasting flavors. First, gingerbread and cream cheese balance each other. Also, the combination is familiar, yet presented in a new way. People appreciate the sense memory yet satisfy their craving for innovation. It is a smart move for Pillsbury.

Pillsbury Drops Another Gingerbread Holiday Treat

For people who love this gingerbread, there is a new Gingerbread Frosting. Sold in a 16 oz tub, the frosting has those warm spices with a hint of sweetness.

Thinking about this flavored frosting, it is a great choice for a variety of desserts. Whether it is icing a soft cookie, a chocolate cupcake, or even a brownie, there are plenty of uses.

Additionally, the Gingerbread Frosting would be great for cocktails. Using the frosting to rim an espresso martini would bring some seasonality. It would work with a spiced apple margarita, or even a simple spiked coffee. Also, it could be a fun way to add some gingerbread notes to a hot chocolate.

Both the Pillsbury Gingerbread Stuffed Cupcake Kit and Gingerbread Frosting hit Walmart stores soon. Other select retailers will offer the seasonal baking items as well.
