A Dessert with History
Inspired by the famous Boston Cream Pie — which is actually a cake, not a pie — this cupcake version offers a modern twist on a beloved American dessert. By turning it into cupcakes, you get more cream in every bite and a dessert that’s easy to serve and share.
Baking Made Simple
While these cupcakes have multiple components, each step is straightforward. You can even break the process up over time — bake the cupcakes one day, prepare the pastry cream the next, and finish with the ganache when you’re ready to serve.
The result is well worth the effort: a dessert that feels luxurious, comforting, and timeless.
Final Thoughts
Boston Cream Cupcakes are proof that classic desserts don’t need much reinventing — just a fresh format. Whether you’re baking for guests or treating yourself, these cupcakes deliver bakery-quality flavor with homemade charm.
Once you try them, don’t be surprised if they become a permanent favorite in your recipe rotation.
