Graduation cupcakes come in many varieties, from homemade to bakery-made, with elaborate or simple designs. They can be customized with graduation-themed decorations, writing, and even made to fit specific dietary needs.
There are many different types of graduation cupcakes, which include homemade and purchased. Some feature elaborate designs, while others can be quite simple. There are nearly endless types of graduation cupcakes that combine different cupcake mixes, frostings, and toppings.
Graduation cupcakes made in a bakery are a popular choice. Sometimes bakeries or other grocery stores may have prepackaged cupcakes for sale around the common graduation. This type of cupcake doesn’t involve any work on the part of the buyer because they can simply walk in and purchase any available graduation themed cupcakes. Also, they can be designed more elaborately than would be possible if made at home.
Some bakeries even allow people to order custom graduation cupcakes. One store may have certain marquee designs to choose from, while other bakeries may allow customers to make unique cupcake requests. If someone doesn’t have the skill or time to prepare elaborate homemade cupcakes for graduation, placing an order for such items may be a suitable solution.
People who make graduation cupcakes in their homes may want to decorate them using graduation images, such as diplomas or mortarboards, also known as graduation caps. Sometimes inedible graduation items, often made from plastic, are placed on top of a cupcake. Other times, the graduation items that can be consumed are formed from the icing or other sugar-based confections.
Writing on top of cupcakes is another method used to make graduation cupcakes. Sometimes, each individual cupcake will have words or letters made with frosting, spelling out the graduate’s name or offering warm wishes for the future. Writing the year or date of a graduation in frosting is also a common means of decorating cupcakes for graduation parties. Decorating each cupcake with a single letter to spell out the school’s name or offer congratulations can be a good choice.
Many things can be used to design graduation cupcakes. Candy, fruit or any sweet food or dessert item can be used to decorate the cupcakes. Using food coloring to make the frosting in school colors or the graduate’s favorite color is also a popular choice. The type of cake can also matter: Some people like to choose a dark chocolate cake to mimic black graduation dresses, while others prefer to make a family favorite and decorate with graduation-themed colors or items.
Graduation cupcakes can also be specialized for the diet of the graduate, friends or family. Vegan graduation cupcakes are common, as are sugar-free cupcakes. If the situation calls for it, even graduation cupcakes can be made gluten-free, egg-free or lactose-free.
