Rainbow Cupcakes!




Finally! I FINALLY have something cool to blog
about! Ok, so this week, i have made cup cakes. Here is a picture of the final result...

Pretty frickin' awesome, huh? i think so =] One of the best parts about making these, was the look on peoples' faces when they unwrapped them and saw that they were rainbow. Not to mention that they were really yummy.

Now. You may be asking yourself: "How did she accomplish such an amazing feat??"
my answer.....magic. =D
Actually, its all simply layering. And lots of patience, which i have.

First, make your batter, get your supplies ready, and have gel food coloring on hand.
Make sure you have as many containers as you do colors.

Evenly separate batter into containers and add coloring.
Layer colors in the cupcake cups (be sure to not to get too much batter on the sides of the cup),and then bake according to directions!
And then add frosting after they cool, of course.

Fin! Yummy cupcakes!

Although...one word of caution...this is a very time consuming project. I greatly discourage taking on these cupcakes if you have a deadline. Or doing them if you have a time restriction... or if you procrastinated on making them and need quite a few.

Happy baking!

Cupcake Origins

Cupcakes have been around since the early 19th century. Yes, that's right, these tasty delights have been been filling the tummys of adults and children for quite some time. Back in the day, people ate much smaller quantities than we do now, so not only was making cupcakes relatively simple to make, but also they were ideal portion sizes.

Seriously, though...

In my opinion, cupcakes are a very important to our society. Think about it, who HAS NOT ever had a cupcake before? Hmmm? Exactly. Only total losers. Just kidding, but seriously...When you go yo a party, what is almost ALWAYS there? cupcakes. You can ALWAYS count on someone bringing in cupcakes to parties and functions. What better to bring family, friends, etc, together than cupcakes? they are food for the soul and make people smile.

Why Cupcakea are Awesome...

...Need i say more?
