Cake push ups
Who doesn’t love a convenient cake derivative — a form of the dessert requiring no utensils or cleanup? Enter cupcake push-ups, by neighborhood residents Meghan Adams and Kristen Adams Scott, founders of The Hospitality Sweet, a baking business the sisters started from home after becoming moms. The five-bite treats function like the old orange ice cream push-ups, but with cake, icing and various fillings as the contents. Contents include margarita cake layered with tequila lime buttercream, pumpkin roulade with sweetened mascarpone and crystalized ginger and s’mores with toasted marshmallow, to name a few. And, as with all items on the sisters’ menu, the packaging is so aesthetically enjoyable, you almost hate to dig into them. Almost. Get in your order for these crowd pleasers and learn more about the sisters other offerings at thehospitalitysweet.com.
