Sweetheart Cupcakes
The sweetheart bodice gets its name because the top of the neckline is shaped like the top of a heart.
Recipe Summary Sweetheart Cupcakes
Instead of just plain white cupcakes, I took it a step further and made them special. You can change the colors for any holiday. Shades of green for St. Patrick's Day, pastel colors for Easter, red white and blue for the 4th of July. You get the picture.Ingredients | Printable Sweetheart Bodice Pattern Free1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix1 ¼ cups water⅓ cup vegetable oil3 egg whites8 drops red food coloring2 drops raspberry candy oilDirectionsPreheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
