About FROSTED COTTON CANDY MINI CUPCAKES, FROSTED COTTON CANDY
Favorite Day Frosted Cotton Candy Mini Cupcakes from Target are bite-sized sponge cakes topped with a pastel cotton candy–flavored frosting and decorative sprinkles. The cake base uses enriched flour, sugar, eggs, and vegetable oil with natural and artificial cotton candy flavor compounds. The frosting is a buttercream-style blend with powdered sugar, shortening, and added colorants — beet powder for the pink tones and Red 3 for vivid red or coral shades. Red 3, also known as Erythrosine, is a synthetic dye the FDA has ordered removed from ingested products by January 2027.
Sprinkle decoration on the cupcake tops adds visual appeal and introduces shellac as a glazing agent on the nonpareils, which is insect-derived and non-vegan. Mica-based pearlescent pigments may also be used for shimmer effects in the decoration. Allergens across the product include wheat, milk, eggs, and soy. Per cupcake, caloric content runs approximately 90 to 120 calories given the small format size.
Favorite Day is Target's private label for indulgent and novelty baked treats. Mini cupcakes in this line are typically sold in multi-count packs — often 12 or more per tray — suited for parties, events, or snack assortments. Cotton candy flavor is particularly popular for children's celebrations and seasonal occasions. These are perishable items with a limited shelf life; follow the best-by date and refrigerate if not consumed within a day or two.
