Time 35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup milk
½ cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup butter
1 cup white sugar
3 eggs, room temperature
red food coloring
blue food coloring
green food coloring
yellow food coloring

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two 12 cup muffin pans with paper baking cups. Stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until evenly blended; set aside.
  • Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the milk mixture, mixing until just incorporated.
  • Divide the cake batter into four separate bowls. Add a few drops of food coloring into one bowl of batter and stir; add more food coloring, if necessary, to reach the desired shade. Repeat with the remaining colors and bowls of batter.
  • Using a different spoon for each color batter, spoon a small spoonful of each color into the cupcake liners, until 1/2 to 3/4 full. Do not mix the batter once it is in the cupcake liner. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes clean, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Time 35m

Yield 12-16 Cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 6

19 1/2 ounces white cake mix
3 eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup water
6 ounces food coloring (Gel food coloring is best, Betty Crocker offers traditional colors as well as neon colors)
8 ounces cream cheese frosting

Steps:

  • Mix the cake batter according to package directions.
  • Evenly divide prepared batter into several different bowls. The amount of bowls will depend on the amount of colors you want for your cupcakes.
  • Add a generous amount of gel food coloring to each bowl until you have a vibrant batter.
  • I usually mix 7 bowls - red, orange, pink, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
  • Line your muffin tin with paper cups and then begin spooning the colored batter into the cups.
  • Add batter color by color, one tablespoon of red in each of the cups, then added a tablespoon of orange on top of the red, and so on until all colors were used. The colors will not "leak".
  • Fill the cups approximately 2/3 full of batter.
  • Bake as directed on the box.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool completely, and frost to your liking.
  • I used whipped cream cheese frosting to give the cupcakes a "cloud" effect.

Tips:

  • For vibrant colored cupcakes, use high-quality food coloring. Gel food coloring is more concentrated than liquid food coloring, so you'll need less of it to achieve the same color.
  • To prevent the cupcakes from sinking in the middle, make sure to preheat the oven to the correct temperature before baking.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in tough cupcakes.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only 2/3 full. This will prevent the cupcakes from overflowing while baking.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can dry out the cupcakes.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Rainbow Bright Cupcakes are a fun and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their vibrant colors and delicious taste, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit with people of all ages. Whether you're making them for a birthday party, a baby shower, or just because, these cupcakes are sure to bring a smile to your face.
