Tie Dye Cup Cakes!


White Cake

To make these tie dye cupcakes, I used white cake batter and to color the batter I separated the batter into Dixie cups and mixed in food coloring until I got the colors I wanted.


Once I had mixed all the colors of dough I had wanted I poured in color by color in spots of the cup cake liner until it was 2/3 full. You can pour colors on top of each other to get a tie dye effect when you cut into the cupcake or cake.


The color of the batter does not fade much, so if you want a very vibrant color cupcakes don't worry if you start out with that color you will end up with that color! 


For the frosting I used a simple butter cream and to show off the top color of the dough I just made fun faces on top, but you could also do a traditional cupcake look to and the fun will begin once you bite into the cupcake!
