Today is my mom’s better and what better way to celebrate than with Funfetti Cupcakes. The plain cake with splotches of rainbow throughout the cake is the perfect cake for both the young and the young at heart. It’s also super easy to make!
Just take your favourite plain cake recipe. My go-to is the sour cream cake, which I make quite often. Then add some rainbow sprinkles which is the key to making this colourful cake. You have to make sure that you use the long sprinkles and not the round nonpareils which won’t melt and give you the same effect.
I topped these cupcakes with my favourite buttercream and it was a hit.
Happy Birthday Mom! We love you!
