Unicorn (Rainbow) Cupcakes

Yesterday was kind of a miserable day so I got to thinking what could make it better? Cupcakes of course. It was a REALLY bad day though and not just any cupcake would do so we made 'unicorn' cupcakes! I suppose you would call them rainbow, but I prefer the monicure unicorn cupcakes. They where loads of fun and turned out great, even if my hands are multi-colored and it made a lot of dishes. I wish I had taken step by step shots for these, next time I make them I certainly will!

Steps:

• Mix cake batter, divide into 6 bowls
• Dye bowls one of each: Purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red (or pink)
• Layer each cupcake with a small spoonful of these colors in the above order (purple on bottom) They make BIG cupcakes with all those layers!
• Bake and enjoy!

Tips:

• I love the wilton gel colors for dying the mix, it makes for really vibrant colors
• Use a very light colored batter. A true white batter or mix works well and is what I used here vs. the typical yellow.
