Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Cupcakes Is Your Wildest Dream Come True
If you’re anything like us, you can’t ever decide if a sweet snack or a sour bite will fully satisfy your cravings. Luckily, Sprinkles won’t make you choose one or the other with their limited edition Flamin’ Hot Cheetos cupcake.
From March 18 through March 24, the famous bakery is offering a unique dessert experience for foodies all around. But before it gets into your hands, here’s how it’s created. First, vanilla cupcakes are cored out and filled with crushed Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, which are then topped off with a “creamy” white cheddar frosting. The final touch is a dash of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos crumbles!
“Every once in awhile, we like to put forward a product that makes you question, Should it even be a cupcake? This fit the bill,” said Charles Craig, Vice President of Sprinkles Cupcakes. “It’s a combination of savory and sweet. It allows us to exercise some fun, creative license in a manner that’s not traditionally accepted, mentally. People don’t think of it on the sweet side.”
After conducting several trials to get the perfect recipe down, Sprinkles introduced la interesante combinación to the world in July 2018 for four days. But this time around, it’ll be available for an entire week.
When asked who was behind the idea, Craig credited it as a group decision. “Flamin’ Hot Cheetos are near and dear to many of our hearts,” he said. But admitted there were mixed responses from the Sprinkles team.
Well, we already know how we feel about this sweet, savory snack — lo queremos ahora!
