Pleased to report that we could not taste the food coloring in our cupcakes, which were very colorful.

The one thing I did note, however, was that it was a little hard to judge how to dose out the batter evenly, and to have the correct amount in the paper at the end. Next time (everyoneloved them, so there were certainly be a next time!) I will probably put the batters in disposable pastry bags to pipe it in.

My daughter was super happy with her birthday cakes!

Thanks for the wonderful idea.

Aw, they turned out so good!
I noticed that it was rather difficult to judge just how much to put in the cups. I had a couple overflow, so I just cut the tops off and frosted the hell out of them. lol

WOW!!!! I love these cupcakes. I've never even thought about doing this.
I really want to make cupcakes, right now!

You might have answered this before, but what kind of food colouring do you use? Liquid or gel? They are just SO vibrant!

I used liquid, but you can use either. I hear that if you use gel, you don't need as much and therefore don't run the risk of tasting it (especially in the red). The gel is supposedly much brighter, too. I just used what I had. :]
