Ingredients

- Prepare cake mix according to box directions and divide evenly into separate bowls. Add a different food color to each bowl and stir each one to fully incorporate the food color into the batter.
- Begin filling the liners by layering a spoonful of each color on top of each other until the liner is ⅔ full.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cupcake comes out clean. Let cool completely before icing.
