Remy Roo and Mommy Too

I participated in this months Scrapbooking with Liz template challenge at The LilyPad and I had fun! I haven't digi scrapped in a long time and I am definitely rusty, but maybe participating in challenges will make me scrapbook more!

Here is what he did used.

1 box of vanilla cake mix (made to box specifications)
1 tub of vanilla frosting
12 cupcake liners
1 box of food coloring-He used neon and basic colors
Frosting piping tool


First, he preheated the oven and lined his cupcake pan.

Then, he made the cake mix. After it was made, he divided the mix up into 6 different bowls. He added food coloring to each bowl to make red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple batter.

To make the rainbow effect in each cupcake, he layered the purple first and spread it evenly in the bottom of each cupcake liner, tapping the pan to remove bubbles.  He then layered each color evenly on top of each other in a backwards rainbow order. He was able to make 12 cupcakes.

Bake according to the instructions on the box.

While the cupcakes were baking he started to create his amazing neon frosting. To do this, he divided the frosting into 4 different bowls and added neon food coloring to get pink, purple, blue and green frosting. He then took each color and put it into a plastic bag and then piped it into our plastic cake piping tool thing. I honestly had no idea we had the thing.

Imagine a plastic version of this.

I am sure it was purchased in a diluted Ashley way in which I was sure I was going to use it and make greatness. Trust me when I bake it is never greatness. I only make cookies to eat the dough. Andy is the baker, and he is awesome at it.

After he piped each color into the plastic circle tube in four separate areas, and the cupcakes were done and cooled, he used the nifty star tip to pipe the neat frosting on top of the cupcakes.
