About a month ago I caught my first glimpse of a new product from Duncan Hines. Frosting Creations. Customizable frosting. 12 flavors including cotton candy and bubble gum. Pure genius.
I could not wait to get my hands on this, so when I was contacted by All You Magazine to find out if I would like to try Frosting Creations, share it with my readers and hold a Frosting Creations Giveaway, it took about a millisecond to say “YES!”. Here’s a little more about Frosting Creations from Duncan Hines…
Duncan Hines unveils Frosting Creations™, a ground-breaking proprietary frosting system that transforms desserts into flavorful and colorful works of art. By simply pouring one of 12 Frosting Creations flavor combination mixes into a specially formulated frosting starter, bakers can stir up endless dessert possibilities, from Mint Chocolate Cake Cones to White Chocolate Raspberry Red Velvet Cake.
The new Duncan Hines Frosting Creations flavors are created in two simple steps:
- Step One: Grab a can of starter frosting
- Step Two: Pour in one of 12 flavor mixes and stir up an amazing new frosting flavor
“From Cotton Candy Cake Pops and Caramel Toffee Brownie Gems to Champagne Strawberry Shortcake Squares and Cinnamon Apple Cupcakes, Duncan Hines is giving bakers the tools they need to make professional looking and tasting desserts with the ease of ready-made products,” said Joe DiPaolo, corporate pastry chef for Duncan Hines. “The 12 new whimsical Duncan Hines Frosting Creations flavors unlock dessert possibilities for all occasions that are as endless as the imagination.”
The possibilities are endless!!! And the recipe ideas over at Duncan Hines are amazing. Some of my favorites include…
Seriously, how great are these ideas and flavors??? I was so excited to get my package from All You that contained everything I needed to whip up some of my own creations. In addition to the items I used to make Chocolate Marshmallow S’mores Cupcakes, I also received the following…
So much fun, and I can’t wait to give three of you your own Frosting Creations Kits from All You Magazine! Okay, so back to what I made. I decided to try out the Chocolate Marshmallow Frosting Creations flavor and make S’mores Cupcakes.
First I made my cupcakes using a Duncan Hines Devil’s Food cake mix. Then it was time to have some fun with the frosting creations…
It couldn’t be simpler, you just add your Frosting Creations Flavor Mix to your Frosting Creations Frosting Starter and stir…
Super yummy. I tested it. Of course. To see more about how it works, check out this video.
Then just frost and decorate (I used chocolate sprinkles and graham cracker crumbs).

I would love to try this to make a fun birthday cake for my little one! I’m sure she would pick the cotton candy flavor!
I would make some type of cupcakes for my son’s birthday party.
I have had the mint chocolate and made mint chocolate chip cupcakes and they turned out pretty good. The frosting is rather running so adding some powdered sugar might help. I also had the caramel and i was not a fan of that flavor. It tasted very chalky. I also have the orange but i have not used that one yet. Over all i think it is a good idea for folks who don’t tend to decorate but you can taste that it is canned frosting. Maybe it is just me but i’m a huge fan of homemade frosting!!
I would create adorable cupcakes for Easter, and later this summer, a homemade birthday cake for my son’s sixth birthday!
Chocolate cupcakes with Cherry Vanilla frosting!
I shared the giveaway on Facebook (there wasn’t an option to enter this URL within the Rafflecopter widget).

I am a HUGE frosting person… in fact, I could eat a cupcake/cake without the cake part!! So, I am a little skeptical about these… but I am always willing to try! I love the idea of having such convenience to make an original creation if you don’t have much time.
Very interesting! Sounds fun!

I found these in my local Kroger after reading your post and HAD to try them! Luckily, I was actually looking for frosting and mix to make orange creamsicle cupcakes and I saw they have an orange creme powder, so I picked it up. It was absolutely delicious on my orange creamsicle cupcakes! Just enough orange creaminess to taste but not overwhelming. Awesome!
I want them all, I need them all. lol The possibilities are endless!

Going to use Cotton Candy and either Cherry Vanilla or the Strawberry Shortcake (not sure of their official names since the DH site is down).
Can’t wait to try the cotton candy!!
I’d made thin mint inspired cupcakes with the mint. Yum!

I would love to try this. Baking is one of my favorite things to do, and it would be fun to experiment!
I want to try this for my daughters 10th birthday Friday! Where can I find this product?? I can’t seem to find it in any if the stores around where I live!
honestly folks this was just awful. i was panning a birthday party and made 3 different flavors. even the kids only ate a bite or two. after the party i had to go around collecting the partially eaten cupcakes. many people ate the bottoms and left the frosted tops. this was way too sweet beyond regular canned frosting with a weird chemical aftertaste. chocolate marshmallow was the least offensive and cotton candy was plain horrible!
je voudrais savoir si je peu trouvé c’est sachets dans un site ou on peu commandé de france merci
