Pot of Gold Cupcakes
We have two ideas for this fun cupcake.
Easiest:
Frost cupcakes with golden yellow frosting. then insert a few pieces
of gold wrapped chocolate coins into the top.
More difficult:
Frost the cupcakes with green or white frosting. Use scissors to cut strips
of fruit licorice in rainbow colors; red, orange, yellow, green, blue,
purple.
Place
the licorice strips on top of the cupcake in a rainbow shape.
Then add one
or two gold chocolate coins at the end of the rainbow.
Tip: You may not be able to fit all of your rainbow colors, four will
do.
