Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    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.
  • tip 2
    You can find edible pink pearls and decorative cupcake liners at craft stores in the cake decorating department or at baking specialty stores.
  • tip 3
    Sprinkle garnishes on cupcakes just before serving to maximize sparkle and keep them from absorbing moisture and melting into frosting.
