What makes a gourmet cupcake gourmet?

How is it different from regular cupcakes? Is it just a marketing ploy?What makes a gourmet cupcake gourmet?
The price you pay for the word generally but not always. Sometimes the ingredients really are superior. Learn to read labels so you'll know the difference! :)
A gourmet cupcake is gourmet when the pastry chef uses ingredients usually from scratch, prepares the cupcakes in an elaborate fashion for a great presentation. Regular cupcakes are most likely created from instant cupcake mix. However, some regular cupcakes are made homemade and it is the topping that defines if it is gourmet or not, regular homemade cupcakes usually have just a frosting or some sprinkles...nothing fancy. Nothing beats a fresh delicious flavor from something that is homemade or made from scratch :) Hope we've helped!

It is just good branding, these days cup cakes are very trendy and people are putting a lot of effort in to making them. So while they are a higher quality, they aren't exactly caviar now.
For the most part yes it is a marketing ploy. But some people have famous restaurants so they say that makes it ' gourmet' and also sometimes it depends on ingredients. Ha ha i know its really weird!
Gourmet cupcakes is bake through fine dining discipline which most chef does. The display should be precise and the decorations has a purpose.
