When is National Cupcake Day?
National Cupcake Day is celebrated every year on Dec. 15, and in 2022, it’s on a Thursday. Before the word “cupcake” was coined, cupcakes were called the 1-2-3-4 cakes since they only contained four ingredients: one cup of butter, two cups of sugar, three cups of flour, and four eggs.
Baked by Melissa: BOGO 50% on holiday gift boxes on Cupcake Day.
When you order a 25-count Christmas or Holiday Gift Box from Baked by Melissa, you can order another one for 50% off. Originally, two Holiday Gift Boxes would cost you $94, but with this discount, you’ll get 50 cupcakes for $70.50.
Sprinkles: Get a free red velvet cupcake from Dec. 12 – 18 with promo code.
When you enter the code FREERV on checkout orders of $15 or more at Sprinkles, you’ll get a free red velvet cupcake (normally costing $5) added to your order. This code will last from Dec. 12 – 18, so you’ll be able to get your cupcake freebie on National Cupcake Day. This only works with online orders and cannot be combined with an existing deal.
You can also get free customization (priced at $10) on a dozen cupcakes with the code FREECUSTOM on checkout.
