For the icing, I attempted an ombre frosting, as well as, chocolate. Here's what I did for the ombre: I put vanilla frosting and vanilla frosting I added food color to, to make it a pink-ish color, to a snack-size ziploc and lightly "squished" together. Cut a very small hole in the corner of the bag, this is now your piping bag! The icing isn't completely mixed, this causes it to create the ombre effect! The first cupcake turned out perfect!! With a cranky baby on my hip, it was a little hard for me to continue with the others, so I simply mixed the icing creating a pink. I sprinkled on some heart candies and voila, something sweet for the kids and hubby :)
