Expert Tips

Champagne is a sparkling wine, and while many expensive champagnes are available, this is one time you might choose less expensive champagne. Have the champagne at room temperature when preparing the cake.

For pink decorator sugar crystals, edible pink pearls and decorative cupcake liners, check out fancyflours.com.

Sprinkle garnishes on cupcakes just before serving to maximize sparkle and keep them from absorbing moisture and melting into frosting.

Is there another way to create the bubbles w/o alcohol? Do sparkling cider drinks work?

These were very moist and tasty, but I wasn't sold on the frosting. It tasted like a sweet stick of butter to me (the frosting tasted better after frosting the cupcakes and having them in the fridge a couple of hours). Next time I make these, I will only use half the amount of butter. Otherwise, the champagne flavor was very delicate.

These cupcakes were moist and delicious, with a hint of champagne to boot! I took these to work as an "end-of-the-school-year" treat for the teachers. A coworker told me she thought they were from a professional bakery. I will definitely make these again.
