Does It Work: Big Top Cupcake

Posted: Updated:

(WMBF) – If you're on the hunt for something to wow your holiday guests with this year, one product is promising a larger-than-life cupcake will do the trick.

The Big Top Cupcake promises to transform a box of cake batter into a ginormous cupcake, but can it pass the "Does It Work?" test?

The makers of the product say bringing to life this new type of dessert takes pouring cake batter into the cupcake's base, securing the filling cap, and adding more batter into the top mold. Thirty-five minutes later, however, the cupcake wasn't ready to make its way out of the oven.

A total of 50 minutes passed before it was OK to pull the mold out of the oven. After 20 minutes of cooling time, both cakes were flipped out of the molding, causing minor damage to its shape.

The Big Top Cupcake allows its cooks to fill the center with filling – such as pudding or icing - before decorating its outside.

Overall, at a price of $19.99, the Big Top Cupcake sugars up to a passing grade for this "Does It Work?" test.
