Wine Bottle Mold For Cupcakes

How awesome are these wine inspired birthday cupcakes one of my customers made!? Brittany Vaughan created these beauties for a rememberable 60th birthday party. The theme was inspired by wine and is undeniably a party for a girly gal with pink and purple cupcakes flecked with flowers. If you would like to get the same look for your cupcakes, here are the molds you will need to purchase…..

Using Your Molds
After you have received your wine bottle mold and flowers mold, wash them in hot, soapy water and dry them with a lint free towel. When your molds are thoroughly dry, lightly dust the inside of the cavities with powered sugar or cornstarch. This step will make it easier to release your fondant or gumpaste. Next, take a small piece of your colored fondant or gum paste and push it into the cavities of your molds. For the best results, remove any excess around the edges and make sure the backs are flat. Now you can flip the mold upside down and gently push/wiggle your edible wine bottles and flowers out onto a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Set out to dry or use immediately for cupcake decorating.

You could also use the wine bottle mold with candy melts or (for the more daring) tempered chocolate. You can top cupcakes, decorate cakes or make wine bottle chocolate candies as favors. Also, if you wanted to add more detail onto the wine bottles, you can use edible markers to draw on a personalized label. Or, if you have access to an edible printer, you can design a label using Photoshop or a program similar to make printed edible paper labels.

The wine inspired party isn’t just fabulous for a milestone birthday, it would make the perfect theme for a bachelorette party or bridal shower! The uses for these molds are limitless and my customer Brittany has shown us a great way to be creative with them.

Happy Making!
