I came up with this idea to make rainbow cupcakes about a year ago. The only thing holding me back was finding twisty marshmallows, until now. I discovered the marshmallows selling at a local Asian market, yipeeee! So needless to say, the hardest thing about this project is finding the marshmallows. Otherwise, making the cupcakes is simple.

Frost cupcake with chocolate frosting. Dip cupcake in coconut to cover the top. You could also replace the coconut with green sprinkles if you wanted to.
Place a toothpick on each side of the marshmallow. Place toothpicks in the top of the cupcake to form a rainbow.

Oh, goodness. Do *not* let my child see that twisty marshmallowy gooiness. She'd be all over it in a second! It would never make it onto the cupcake.

ReplyDeleteOh that's such a cute idea! I LOVE it! =)
ReplyDeletekids will definitely love those cupcakes.
ReplyDeleteI saw these and immediately wanted to eat my computer screen. Maybe it's because I'm always ravenous after I've run in the morning, but the marshmallows and cupcakes look scrumptious!
ReplyDeleteThis would be a really cute idea for a birthday party. I'll have to pass this on to my brother as an idea for his twin girls ... thanks for another good idea!
