Best 8 Rainbow Cupcake Cones Recipes

RAINBOW CUPCAKES

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.

ROSE CUPCAKE CONES

Steps:

• For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the flour, cornstarch, salt and baking powder in a medium bowl. Set the dry mixture aside.
• In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the egg whites, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the oil, vanilla extract, rosewater and food coloring.
• With the mixer running on low speed, add the dry mixture and the milk to the wet mixture in two or three alternating batches and mix until just barely combined. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the sprinkles until they're evenly distributed.
• Arrange the ice cream cones in a 9-by-13-inch pan. Add the batter to a large piping bag and snip a hole at the tip about 1-inch wide (or use a 1-inch tip). Fill the ice cream cones to the inner line of each cone. Bake for 20 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then transfer the cupcakes to a wire rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
• For the frosting: Meanwhile, in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until smooth, then gradually beat in the powdered sugar. Add the milk, rosewater, vanilla extract and salt and beat to combine.
• For the assembly: Decorate the cupcakes with the frosting of your choice. Or, if you made a double batch of frosting to have enough for the roses, separate the frosting, adding dye if you choose, and place into piping bags fitted with a rose petal tip and a leaf tip. Directly onto the center of the cupcake, pipe one small arch shape with the rose petal tip, then another halfway overlapping the previous petal, continuing until your flower is complete. Using the piping bag with the leaf tip, add leaves. You can also form any other decorations your heart desires (for example, using a star tip for adornments). Add the sprinkles.

RAINBOW SHOTS OR SNOW CONES

Steps:

• Line six or seven shot glasses on a work surface or a big bowl of crushed ice (if making a snow cone). This can get messy.
• Add the grenadine to a cocktail shaker. Add enough crushed ice to the ice until the shaker is three-quarters full. Slowly pour the pineapple juice over the back of a spoon or ice scoop into the shaker. Then add the gin and a splash of curacao. This will create layers. Strain the liquid into the shot glasses. If making ice cones, pour over the crushed ice, making sure there is enough space for all of the colors.

ALLERGYFRIENDLY RAINBOW CUPCAKE CONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350o F. Meanwhile, prepare the cake batter according to instructions or use your own recipe.
• Divide the batter into four bowls. Add a few drops of any food colors you like, a different color in each bowl, and mix.
• Take a muffin tray and put a cone in each muffin holder.
• Now take a colored batter and fill each of the cones with a teaspoon of the batter. Repeat with each color until all the cones are filled.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the toothpick when inserted into the center comes out clean.

RAINBOW CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and fill a cupcake tray with 10 cases.
• Beat the butter, vanilla and caster sugar together with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy. Gradually whisk in the eggs, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition.
• Mix in the flour and a pinch of salt until just combined. Divide into five bowls and colour each a different shade with a drop of food colouring. We chose red, yellow, green, blue and purple.
• Starting with the end of the rainbow (in our case purple), evenly spread 1 tsp of the mixture into each cupcake case using a piping bag or the back of a teaspoon. Top with 1 tsp of the next colour and spread - be careful not to mix the colours together whilst bringing the mix all the way to the edge of the case. Repeat until all the colours are used up and you're left with an even layer of red on the top.
• Bake for 15 mins, until a skewer inserted into the middle of each cake comes out clean. Leave to cool completely on a wire rack.
• To make the buttercream, beat the butter until very soft. Add the icing sugar, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt and whisk together until smooth (start off slowly to avoid an icing sugar cloud). Beat in the milk until combined.
• Pipe the buttercream on top of the cupcakes using a circular nozzle, or spread on with a palette knife. Top with sprinkles, if you like.
