AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sprinkles, the world’s first cupcake bakery, has unveiled its latest chocolate innovation: Cupcake Cups. A homage to Sprinkles’ beloved signature cupcake flavors, the Cupcake Cup is a chocolate treat filled with frosting-flavored filling in three flavors - Red Velvet, Birthday Cake and Double Chocolate - available now at all Target retail stores.
The certified Rainforest Alliance, kosher, and gluten-free chocolate from Sprinkles puts a fresh spin on the classic chocolate cup, featuring its top cupcake and frosting flavors.
