There is nothing more satisfying than biting into a delicious cupcake. I love a piece of cake but cupcakes are so fun, for adults and kids. Today I am bringing you a new spin on cupcakes with a cherry vanilla coke cupcake. These delicious flavors combined make this a treat you will be making again and again. You can dress these up with cute cupcake wraps. I use the Wilton covered cupcake set, that has 3 different sizes of pan to cook in and a lid to carry them all with you to a special event! Oh, and don’t forget that you get free shipping on all orders over $25 at Target.com.
