These Sprinkle Cone Funfetti Cupcakes are a party in every bite. With soft, sprinkle-filled cake, double swirls of frosting, and the cutest mini waffle cone toppers, they’re made to bring the fun. Perfect for birthdays, bake sales, or anytime you need a reason to celebrate!
Do I need to use the exact Funfetti Celebrations mix?
Not at all—any funfetti cake mix will do. If yours doesn’t include sprinkles, just add your own for that signature pop of color.
Can I make the frosting ahead of time?
Yes. Prepare it up to two days in advance, store it in the fridge, and bring it to room temperature before piping. Re-whip for the fluffiest texture.
Will the mini cones get soggy on top?
Nope! These come pre-filled and stay crisp. Since you’re not adding frosting inside, they hold up beautifully even when added early.

Can I make these cupcakes a day in advance?
Yes—bake and decorate them the day before. Just store them in a cupcake container or cake box at room temperature.
What frosting tips should I use for piping?
Use a round tip for the white swirl and a large star tip for the pink swirl to create a clean, layered look.
Do I need gel food coloring?
Gel food coloring is best for vibrant color without making the frosting too thin. A little goes a long way.
Can I skip the almond extract?
Definitely. It adds that bakery-style touch, but vanilla alone still gives delicious results.
Bake a batch of these Sprinkle Cone Funfetti Cupcakes for a friend’s birthday and drop them off as a surprise! Add a small gift—like a cute mug, face mask, or confetti popper—and tie it all together with a ribbon for an instant party-in-a-box. It’s a sweet way to say “I’m thinking of you” with sprinkles, frosting, and fun.
Buttery, sweet sugar cookie cups filled with vanilla buttercream and rainbow sprinkles!
