Sprinkles' Cupcake Cups Put a Twist on the Classic Chocolate Cup

— June 26, 2024 — Lifestyle
A few months into 2024, famous cupcake bakery Sprinkles launched a line of chocolate bars based on some of its most iconic flavors and now the brand is debuting three Cupcake Cups. The Red Velvet, Birthday Cake and Double Chocolate Cupcake Cups are chocolate treats filled with frosting, making it possible for Sprinkles fans to savor beloved flavors straight from the candy aisle.

With these snacks, Sprinkles shares a taste of certified Rainforest Alliance, kosher and gluten-free chocolate, offering a different take on the classic chocolate cup. While Red Velvet and Double Chocolate are milk chocolate cups, Birthday Cake is for sweet white chocolate lovers.

The Sprinkles Cupcake Cups are coming to thousands of Target locations across the country, as well as Sprinkles bakeries and online, plus over 70 Cupcake ATMs.
