Rainbow Cupcakes!

Today we made rainbow cupcakes for my Mom’s birthday. We make a lot of rainbows and talk about light dividing into colors. It was fun to reinforce the rainbow principle in such a sugary way. And slightly magical to mix 6 different colors of icing.

I usually make my own cake, but today I used a box and our own icing. It’s stupid simple- a stick of butter, 8 oz package of cream cheese, a cup of powdered sugar, and a few drops of vanilla. Because cupcakes are truly all about the toppings.

R-O-Y-G-B-V and Happy Birthday to Mom, and to our common-law-brother-in-law, Corey Long!
