Frosting...isn't that the best part of a cupcake? The latest trend to hit bakeries is frosting shots. Instead of the calorie content of a whole cupcake you can satisfy your sweet craving with a shot of frosting. The delectable shots are presented in paper cups or shot glasses and cost about 75 cents to $1.50 each. Can I please have three...or would that defeat the purpose?
I think it's a great idea for a sweet snack, and a fun way for bakeries to try out new frosting flavors. What do you think - will you be serving frosting shots at your next party?

yes please. two blue, one yellow and well, lets make it three pinks.
When making any kind of cake I usually always make too much frosting on purpose, just so I can eat it afterwards!
Yummy post.
as long as it's real butter-cream and not some ghastly margering or lard-based icing... and i'd rather not have something so neon that it's going to stain my lips!
disgusting
Man frosting is GOOD! How can you be disgusted?
Well, I have to say that the cake part is actually my favorite part! I like very little frosting, but the idea is fun and I'm sure there will be lots of fans out there for this one.
Yummmm! Frosting is the best part. I wonder if you can upgrade from a shot size to a full cup though?!
Umm, best idea ever??? I think so.
I'll take three please. In pink.
i'll take one of each please! what a fantastic idea :)
oh boy....this is dangerous! yum!
My name is Stephanie, and I am a frosting addict.
I am hoping/fearing that a bakery like this will move within a 50 mile radius of my home.
Now, you must excuse me, I have to go make some frosting!
oh my goodness! this looks positively addictive! & so pretty in all those colours!
well, when i was a kid, my mom would buy the icing in a can. i would eat some with a spoon and that wasn't nearly as good as what you've go there. i love icing and my dentist loves the boat i probably bought for him from all the cavities. love those icing shots. happy weekend!
Have FUN on your trip! Great bag! And please sir... may I have a frosting shot! I NEED a pick me up... that frosting just might do it!
im getting a sugar rush just looking at them!
Yes, it looks good, but where's the chocolate? I always eat the frosting out of those little Duncan Hines tubs. Give me one of those shots and I'll be a happy woman!
well, too much sugar for me, but i really like the picture, ha ha! :-)
YUM! The frosting is my favorite part, I usually eat all the frosting and then throw away the cake.
Holy crap, I've been talking about this for years! I eat cupcakes upside down to save the best part for last. Hands down the best idea since sliced bread and movable type.
I love it! I regularly eat cupcakes with my two little boys, and my youngest and I always eat off the frosting and ditch the cupcake. Great solution - frosting shots.
What a great idea, try out new frosting's yet not wasting anything = )
Frosting shots? Seriously? Wow! I'll be on the look-out for those being served at my local bakery!
That's a good idea for my warming party!!! Many thanks!

I have heard about this but dont think that I could do it! I dont like a lot of frosting, too sweet!
I'll take a double! I love all the colors! How much fun is this?!
OK, call me weird...but I don't like frosting! Cake, yes. And a TINY bit of frosting, sure. But too much actually makes me a little queasy.
With that said...I know there are a lot of frosting fanatics and this seems like a fun and unique idea! And...I love how pretty they look!
My mouth is watering!
YUM! YUM! i'm making mini cupcakes right now. i may have to skip the cake and go directly for the frosting... as long as it's buttercream, that is :)
Sheer genius!! My kids only eat the frosting anyway ;-)
i'm a carb girl...give me that chocolate cake:)
