Tie-Dye Inspired Cupcakes (Contest too!)

Life is too short not to use food coloring in cake batter. I'd seen these crazy kaleidoscope cupcake ideas floating around online and wanted to give it a try. It took a bit longer than making normal cupcakes, but it was worth it!
Here are the supplies you need. Make sure to get primary colors AND new the new neons that McCormick Spices has out now.

You'll make the white cake batter and then sort it into bowls. Add the color to the shade you want.
Spoon into the cups. Next time I will use a toothpick to swirl the colors. I only used four colors, next time i'll go with six or even eight!

This is a great project for 4th of July!

CONTEST! Leave a comment and share your DREAM cupcake from your favorite bakery, or your favorite cupcake experience. I'll draw TWO names to win this prize pack!
