Tuesday's Tip: Cute St. Patrick's Day Cupcakes/Use Gel Food Coloring for Intensity

Rainbow Cupcakes I came across these cute Rainbow Cupscakes on Lindsey Mendenhall’s blog, The Bakery Box . Lindsey has established a little tradition of baking these delightful cupcakes for her children for St. Patrick’s Day. Every “little leprechaun” I know would certainly feel like they had found a pot of gold, if they were served one of these colorful treats. How clever to tie in the rainbow theme for this celebration! On a table filled with treats of only shades of green, these pretty, multicolored cupcakes would surely stand out! They sound yummy too! Not only are these perfect for celebrating St. Paddy’s Day, I think they’d be wonderful for birthdays and school parties! Sugaree’s , a local bakery, makes a rainbow cake, which puts me in mind of Lindsey’s cupcakes. Lindsey’s recipe would work well for this. Just divide the cake batter evenly into five bowls and add desired shade of food coloring. (You might need to use 2 boxes of cake mix to create this many layers.) Bake and ice
