We made this jumbo cupcake cake with the tie dye technique below using a Big Top silicone mold. It uses 2 cake boxes and you just have to "saw off" the top once baked to make it flat. Take it out of the mold and put together using frosting. We frosted the whole thing, used rainbow sprinkles and with food coloring made polka dots then dragged them into swirls with a toothpick.
Make vanilla cupcake batter and separate into different bowls. Dye the batter with food coloring. We used gel food coloring to get brighter, darker colors.
Pour spoonfuls of each color in different amounts - do not mix. Let the batter settle on it's own.
Bake following box directions, frost, sprinkle and voila!
