Alcoholic Cupcakes: Tipsy Bakery
Do you need a liquor license to sell booze-laced cake?
That’s one of the questions local entrepreneur Frankie Murphy is wrestling with as she prepares to launch her new business Tipsy Bakery.
Murphy, 24, said she got the idea, ironically, from her mother.
“On my 21st birthday my mom made me a Jello-shot cake,” Murphy said. “That’s Jello with alcohol in it poured onto the cake. It was fantastic.”
Murphy began exploring the idea of selling high-octane cakes and cupcakes and concluded Springfield would be an ideal market for the 21-and-over treats.
She envisions her product will appeal to college students and adults who enjoy good and interesting food.
She thinks Tipsy cakes would be particularly popular at bachelorette parties.
Alcoholic cupcakes for bachelorette parties? I think we have a winning business idea.

Just how alcoholic would they be, though? Unlike the jello shot cake her mom made (I am assuming she didn’t continue cooking the cake after pouring the alcoholic jello on it), putting alcohol in the food and cooking it generally cooks the alcohol out, leaving the flavor instead. For example, beer brats.

I sell alcohol infused cupcakes (my specialty are strawberry patron) but I never thought about getting a liquor license….lol. I have 10 different flavors and I always check ID.
