5 SECRETS TO GETTING DINNER ON THE TABLE...FAST!

Taste The Rainbow Cupcakes

Taste the Rainbow Cupcakes are the perfect treat any time of year but are extra fun on St. Patrick’s Day!

Taste the Rainbow Cupcakes for St. Patrick's Day from MomOnTimeout.com!  #St.Patrick'sDay #recipe #cupcakes

This weekend we decided to make some cupcakes. I just made these with what I had on hand and they turned out super cute and even better, yummy! I mean what’s better than a cupcake? A cupcake topped with candy of course!

Taste-the-rainbow-cupcakes

I used lemon cake mix but key lime or funfetti would also be perfect. I wanted to use a flavor that would go well with the skittles. I added in some lime zest and fresh lime juice to the mix and the flavor was very nice – perfect for the skittles.

I frosted the cupcakes with just a little bit of frosting so they were nice and flat. We used five different colors of cupcake liners. Too cute!

Next I let the kids help me make a variety of “rainbows” on the cupcakes and added little clouds where appropriate.
