I first made these to surprise my daughter & they've been a huge hit ever since! We also used a white cake mix once & made red, white & blue cupcakes for The Fourth of July. You can do so many different things with this. Hope you enjoy as much as we do!

Ingredients

1 yellow cake mix
water
oil
eggs
food coloring

Steps:

1. Mix cake mix according to directions. Line cupcake pans with 24 liners.
2. Choose the number of colors you'd like to use & separate the batter into equal amounts. (4 colors, 4 bowls...etc.) Add food coloring to each bowl to create the colors for your tie dyed cupcakes.
3. Starting with the color you want on the bottom, spoon in about a tbsp of the cake batter. Repeat this step for each muffin cup. Move to the next color & repeat. Do not worry if the color doesn't go all the way across....it's cute that way.
4. Layer all colors until the batter reaches 1/2 to 3/4 full. Bake according to package directions.
5. Ice with your favorite icing (we use homemade buttercream)& decorate with sprinkles or colored sugars.
6. ***This can also be used to make a layered cake. Just pour the different colors, one at a time, into the cake pans & bake. ****

Tips:

Prepare your workspace: Cover your work surface with newspaper or plastic wrap to protect it from dye stains.
Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results. This includes using real butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.
Make sure your baking soda is fresh: Baking soda is an essential ingredient in tie-dyed cupcakes, so make sure yours is fresh and active. If you're not sure, test it by adding a small amount to a cup of vinegar. If it bubbles, it's still good to use.
Use food-safe dyes: When choosing food coloring, make sure to use food-safe dyes that are specifically designed for baking. This will ensure that your cupcakes are safe to eat.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cupcakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Use a toothpick to check for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of a cupcake. If it comes out clean, the cupcakes are done.

Conclusion:

Tie-dyed cupcakes are a fun and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily create these colorful cupcakes at home. Just be sure to follow the tips above and you'll be sure to have delicious and beautiful tie-dyed cupcakes.
