Top Tip
Place the liquorice rainbows into the extra icing whilst slightly still wet so they stick. You may need to hold them in place for a few minutes.
How to Make
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Beat the butter and sugar together with an electric whisk or wooden spoon.
- Put the rest of the cake ingredients into the bowl and then mix with an electric whisk until smooth.
- Spoon into cupcake cases on a cupcake tin and bake for 15 minutes.
- Mix together the icing sugar and water together. Then add in a small amount of blue food colouring to get a light blue colour.
- Next wait for the icing to set. Then make some more icing and use a bit more icing sugar to make this batch thicker.
- Spoon some of the white icing onto each side of the cupcake and then cut off some rainbow liquorice and stick each end in the white icing, so it forms a curve and looks like a rainbow.
