Now you can create versatile cupcakes easily in your own home with the Chicago Metallic Cupcake Plunger. First, the plunger allows you to core the cupcake by centering the tool in the cupcake and pushing down on its ruffled edge. Through twisting and pulling upward, you have removed the core, which can be used later as a topper or as a "cupcake bite". Finally, push the plunger down over your desired solid filling (ice cream or thick buttercream works great!), pull upward to fill the plunger and push down again over your cored cupcake to fill the pastry. The Cupcake Plunger has two levels marked on its body - one for standard cupcake filling and one for jumbo cupcake filling - so you can accurately choose the desired amount of coring and filling every time. Top rack dishwasher safe. Core measures 1 1/2" in diameter and 2 1/2" high. Entire corer with plunger measures 6" H.

received one for Christmas, finally got to try it out. works great, the only complaint is often the core does not come out but a knife blade pulls it out easily (maybe because I freeze my cupcakes before coring/decorating). Have not used it for re-filling as most of my fillings are pudding or cream and a pastry bag or squeeze bottle does the trick for that quite well.

I loved this little tool. It worked exactly as on the package and made it possible to get uniform holes in cupcakes for fillings. Also the part that I removed was easy to replace and gave height to my finished work.

I'm really not sure why people are rating it so low, I think it works as advertised. The hole diameter was perfect for the standard size cupcakes I made. I didn't use it to fill so i'm not sure how well that part works which is why I only gave it 4 stars. After filling it most of the way I replaced the middle to get a better cake to icing ratio. I would definitely recommend this product to everyone looking for a fast easy way to make filled cupcakes.

This worked like a charm! I used it for the first time tonight to make my apple pie cupcakes. It took a little getting used to but there were no real problems!

It Worked Just Fine

I'm not sure why this product received such low reviews because it worked just fine for me. I think you need to actually read the directions in order to get the desired results. I made standard size cupcakes, and it punched an adequate (not too big) hole in the cupcake.

The thing is that I didn't use it to put the filling in. I filled the hole about 3/4 full of filling, and then plugged the cupcake piece that I initially took out back into the cupcake. This way, the cupcake wasn't all filling and icing.

I used it for muffins to put the butter on the inside and recap it and it worked great!
As the instructions say, you don't just push it all the way though, there are marks on it for different sizes.
I had no problems getting out the amount I wanted to remove.

Great product!

Great idea but Terrible product

This product is not worth the money. The hole it creates is too big for even a jumbo cupcake. When all is said and done you wind up eating icing with a little bit of cupcake. It is also not that easy to use. The cake gets stuck in the plunger and then tiny crumbs get everywhere.

High hopes, but very disappointed

I bought this product hoping to make some cupcakes for my daughters' b-day party. The idea of making my own "filled" cupcakes was great since the store bought ones are so expensive. In any case, to my surprise, it didn work. The diameter was too big and the cutter went all the way through the cupcake. So, a lot of cake was wasted and you really had to becareful or else you would cut all the way through the cupcake. Good idea. Bad product.
