Candy Corn Cupcakes

A Halloween party at work means I got to bake last night. It's been a while.

I didn't do anything too exciting (as I was also carving pumpkins last night).

I just did a basic white cake, with a little vanilla and almond extract. I hadn't used this recipe before and it looks like they ended up rising more than I thought they would, next time with this recipe I'll probably just fill the cups half full.

I had some fun with the frosting though and made them look as much like a candy corn as I could. I've started using gel dies and I'm loving them. You get great colors and it doesn't change the consistency of your frosting.

I haven't actually tasted them yet (bad baker!), so hopefully they are a yummy treat!
