Step-by-Step Instructions

  2. Divide the batter into four bowls, pouring about 2 cups into each for color mixing.
  3. Add Wilton color food coloring to each batter portion and mix to achieve vibrant shades.
  4. Alternate spoonfuls of each colored batter into cupcake liners and swirl gently to create a marble effect.
