You won’t need candles to bring the romance to your Valentine’s dinner, just serve Pink Champagne Cupcakes with Pink Champagne Buttercream with a glass of Brut Pink Champagne, of course.

Pink Champagne Cupcakes with Pink Champagne Buttercream

As a kid, Valentines Day was always one of my favorite holidays at school. It started with picking out the ideal box of Valentines and then anguishing over which one was perfect, but not too perfect, to give to that special boy. I guess these days it’s not that different because each year I plan long and hard for that perfect dessert for Vince. This year it’s Pink Champagne Cupcakes with Pink Champagne Buttercream Frosting.

These cupcakes are now my new “go-to” dessert for special occasions. And yes, I cheated and used a boxed mix. But I always add to the box mix so it’s semi-homemade. When I use a box mix, I always add an extra egg and sometimes substitute the oil for room temperature butter. My other trick is to substitute the water with milk. But in this case, I used pink champagne instead of the water. But my Pink Champagne Buttercream Frosting is all homemade. And it’s all delicious with a hint of bubbly champagne flavor.

Pro Tips:

  1. Use room temperature Champagne.
  2. Use an ice cream scoop to fill the cupcake liners so all of your cupcakes are the same size.
  3. Fill the cupcake liners halfway.
  4. Test doneness using a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the cupcakes are done.
  5. Make the cupcakes a day before you frost them to ensure they are fully cooled.
