Design

The artwork across the silver bars in the 1.5 oz Proof Colorized Sweet Cupcake Silver 3-Bar Set depicts three charming cupcakes. The designs look similar to vanilla, blueberry, and red velvet cupcakes, each with frosting matching the cakes color. The wrappers are left in brilliant silver, standing out against the bright frosting.

History

The earliest known reference to cupcakes appeared in Amelia Simmons 1796 cookbook, “American Cookery,” calling them “a cake to be baked in small cups.” In those early days, cupcakes were made for convenience, often simple butter cakes enhanced with dried fruits or spices. By the 1820s, cupcake became a standard term, both for their size and for recipes that used cup measurements instead of scales.
