| A pot of gold at the end of a rainbow cupcake:) |
For St Patty's Day I wanted to make a pot of gold for my son's class so I looked on familyfun.com to help me with an idea. I decided to make rainbow cupcakes and then I just put plain white icing on top with yellow sugar and a chocolate coin = a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow:) I made one boxed cake and measured it into 6 bowls. After that I added red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet food colouring gel into each bowl giving you 6 colours of the rainbow. I lined the cupcake pan with cupcake liners and I added a spoon of each colour one at a time to the linings. I added purple first so that I had the purple on the bottom. With one cake box I got 12 cupcakes. This process is labour intensive but not difficult and it is so beautiful once they are complete. After they were cooked and cooled I added the white icing, yellow sugar and chocolate coin. A great rainbow St Patrick's treat.
