I have the world's biggest sweet tooth. I am a big sucker for anything sugary and fattening... cupcakes, pastries, cakes, candy... I love it all.
A few days ago, I decided to make some rainbow cupcakes that I had seen on a few blogs last summer. It was a baking project that combined my two favorite things... sugar and cuteness.
I enlisted some help from Betty and my favorite kitchen assistant.
After mixing the cake mix, I divided the batter into 6 bowls and colored it with food coloring gel. Then I put a little batter of each color into the cupcake liners and popped them in the oven.
While the cupcakes were cooling, I mixed up the frosting using my other kitchen assistant. I sure love that mixer.
The frosting tester made sure it tasted good. He gave it two thumbs up.
We {by "we" I mean G.I. Joe and I} tried to be fancy and use this decorating tool to frost the cupcakes. It quickly became clear that we need a little work in the cupcake decorating department.
However, after seeing this smile, I think the cupcakes turned out A-ok!
I have been married to the Army since 2004 and we have two wonderful kiddos. I am a teacher and a little bit impulsive. I have no problem striking up a conversation with a complete stranger, but I need a little work in the culinary, driving, and time-management departments.
