Dollhouse Bake Shoppe Cookies & Cream Cupcake Kit Review


It was my absolute pleasure to review one of Dollhouse Bake Shoppe's "from scratch" cupcake kits. If the name sounds familiar, it is because Dollhouse Bake Shoppe was a 2 time Food Network "Cupcake Wars" competitor: Winner of the season 1 series premier and runner up on the season 2 Cupcake Wars Champions episode. I was so excited to try out my kit created by a Cupcake Wars star!


I was sent the Cookies & Cream Cupcake/Cake Kit - so fitting as this is one of my favorite flavor combinations - and couldn't wait to start baking. Everything that you need to create delicious "from scratch" cupcakes is included in an adorable dollhouse carrying box: cake mix, frosting mix, mix-ins and a piping bag for professional decorating results. Detailed instructions are provided and with just a few common ingredients from your fridge you are able to create professional quality cupcakes in the comfort of your own home. 

Okay, almost everything is included. You will need to provide your own cupcake/cake pan and cupcake liners. Don't fret if you don't already own these! Dollhouse Bake Shoppe offers a variety of fun and unique baking supplies & accessories like cake pans, cupcake stands, sprinkles, edible decorations, and more, as well as their cupcake party kits, and themed favors & gifts.  


I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical of the cake mix. The batter was already pretty thin before I was instructed to add some additional boiling water. I was hesitant to add the water, but the extremely detailed instructions forewarned that the batter would be very runny so I obliged. My batter was extremely thin and I popped them into the oven thinking that there was absolutely no way that these cupcakes could turn out. 

It pays to follow instructions because Dollhouse Bake Shoppe knew exactly how these kits would turn out: perfect. Out popped one dozen absolutely gorgeous, fluffy and delicious chocolate cupcakes. 


The kit contained a vanilla frosting mix that when added to cream cheese and butter made the perfect not-too-sweet frosting for these cupcakes. A premium mix-in/topping packet of crushed Oreo cookies was also included. I chose to mix these in with my frosting for a true cookies & cream topping. The final cupcake was nothing short of spectacular. To say that they didn't last long is an understatement - everyone who tasted them agreed that they were some of the best cupcakes they have had. 

If you are looking for a quick mix that produces an impressive, professional quality cupcake, look no further than Dollhouse Bake Shoppe.
