A few weeks ago, my husband got me a Tie-Dye Cake Mix from Duff Goldman. I read really good reviews about it, and since I always use Betty Crocker mixes, I was pretty excited to try a new mix. I decided to make Tie-Dye cupcakes! The colorants included inside the Mix are incredible… I even had a few drops left so I used them for the frosting :) Also, it was tons of fun to mix the colorant in different bowls, kinda like playing scientist! :P

Buttercream frosting

- 1 cup of butter (softened)

- 3-4 cups confectioner’s sugar

- 10 drops of butter-vanilla

Add confectioner’s sugar, 1/2 a cup at a time. After each cup has been incorporated, mix for about 15 seconds! Add the vanilla-butter and mix till the texture is as desired. You can add more sugar or butter, if the flavor or texture is not as desired. Put everything inside a pipping bag (or ziploc bag!) and let it rest in the fridge for a few minutes :)

    I love cupcakes. reallly love cupcakes! And yours looks so yummy but I prefer just one color, I think colorants are unhealthy.. but maybe I’m wrong. You did a great job :D
