Rainbow Cupcakes

Both my children love baking. So in every school term break, we make it a point to spare a day for baking. Actually, I am not a big fan of baking. I find it quite a hassle in fact to measure each ingredirnt accurately and using all thosr eqipments and clearing it later on. But its one of those things for me you have to do if you are a 'Mum'!!
     This half term, we baked Rainbow cupcakes. My children absolutely enjoyed making them Another funny incident that occurred that day is, I forgot to buy the whipping cream needed for icing . So I sent my son to buy some and he came home with a pack of single cream. While I was wondering how to decorate the cupcakes with the single cream, the clarification that he gave made me laugh. He thought that his calorie conscious Mum would not approve if he buys full fat double cream loaded with calories😀😀
   So eventhough we could not decorate our cupcakes to perfection, we had loads of fun, which is more important, isn't it??
     I have followed the recipe from one of the food magazines and haven't made any changes to the original recipe.
