The actual reveal is the best part of any Gender Reveal Party. Parents have come up with so many creative ways of telling guests what gender their new little one will be. One simple and cute way to do the reveal is with cupcakes! The secret is that these cupcakes have a special surprise inside! Read on to learn how to make them yourself.
- White cupcakes
- White frosting
- Pink and blue food coloring
- Sparkling Powder Blue Chocolate Candy
- Light Pink Chocolate Candy
- Knife or Cupcake Corer
Bake cupcakes using a recipe or cake mix. Once cupcakes have cooled, using a knife or a cupcake corer (pictured below) create a hole in the center of the cupcake. Don't make the hole poke through the cupcake, just about half way.
Fill the cupcake holes with candy. I'm making these cupcakes for a boy baby, so I used blue coated chocolate candies.
Split white frosting into two bowls. Mix pink and blue food coloring into each bowl.
Using a piping bag or frosting gun and a flower tip, pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes. Make half of the blue and half of them pink.
