Rainbow Cupcakes

Rainbow cupcakes you say? What in the world are those? Cupcakes with rainbow sprinkles? Maybe...


Let's take another look...


Yes, but there's more.


Ahhhh...now you see!



And SO yummy!

These cupcakes have my Grandmother's recipe for Sticky Frosting (at least that's what we call it in my family) on top. It's oh so sweet. Here's the recipe:

Grandma's Sticky Frosting
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1 egg white
1/2 cup less 1 TBSP boiling water

Measure out the first four ingredients into a mixing bowl. Add the boiling water. Mix on high speed until stiff peaks form.

Cupcakes


Some cupcakes I made for a baby shower. They are actually a very light pastel blue, but I'm still learning how to use my camera, so the lighting is all wrong. Dark chocolate cupcakes with vanilla butter cream- YUM!
