Get ready to SING! We are delighted to partner with Universal Pictures Home Entertainment to celebrate the the SING Special Edition Blu-ray and DVD release! Our family loves a movie that inspires you to reach for your dreams and this heartwarming film with great music and a fantastic cast does just that! So often we get stuck and don’t take chances. This movie is a great reminder to take a few chances and to put yourself out there. Great things can happen!
Our movie night couldn’t be complete with yummy treats and of course themed food! What better way to encourage some singing than microphone cupcakes! The best part they are super easy to make!
How to make microphone cupcakes
Mix up one boxed cake mix according to package directions. Place ice cream cones into a muffin pan. Fill each cone with the cake batter. Leave at least an inch of space at the top.
Bake according to package directions for cupcakes. Watch closely. We used the jumbo ice cream cones so they took a few minutes extra to bake.
Decorate the cupcakes with white frosting, licorice and sparkly silver coarse sugar.
First make a hole near the bottom of the cone with a sharp tool. An ice pick or meat fork works great. This makes a place to slip in the “cord.”
Peel the licorice into individual cords and feed one piece into the hole.
Frost the cupcakes with the white frosting. Be generous making the tops look like the top of a microphone.
Place the sparkly silver coarse sugar in a small bowl. Dip the frosted part into the sugar until completely coated.
Tadah…. microphone cupcakes!
Pick up your copy of SING Special Edition is now available on Blu-ray & DVD. You get over 60-minutes of bonus content and three all-new entertaining mini movies featuring the cast from SING as well as an exclusive Tori Kelly music video and a variety of musical extras. So fun!
You won’t be disappointed! SING features more than 65 hit songs including ‘Faith,’ a brand new song by the legendary Stevie Wonder (featuring Ariana Grande), marking his first song for a major film release in 25 years. SING was a Golden Globe nominee for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song. We loved SING stars Academy Award® winner Matthew McConaughey as Buster Moon, Academy Award® winner Reese Witherspoon as Rosita. Scarlett Johansson was great as Ash, a punk rock porcupine with a beautiful voice behind her prickly exterior. So many of our faves in this movine including Taron Egerton, Seth MacFarlane, John C. Reilly, Tori Kelly.
SING is definitely the musical comedy event of the year!
How did you store these? Can they be place in cellophane bags?
Nina, I don’t remember now. I know it made 12 and I think a few more. It didn’t take too much more for the cones. If you fill too high they overflow. I would say you could probably get 18. Sorry I should have counted.
How many did these make? 24 or 12? Do you need to add more batter to fill the cones than you would a cupcake liner? Thank you!
