Do you know what my favorite color in the whole entire world is? I’ll give you a hint… there is a bit of it on the blog. Did you guess? It’s ORANGE!! Orange is absolutely my favorite color! I love everything about it and I love everything that is the color orange. 

Orange gummy bears (yes I do pick out only the orange ones and give Big Bear the rest), orange skittles, orange jello, orange gobstoppers, oranges, pumpkins, candy corn… well the middle of the candy corn. I do not how ever like orange soda….well not unless it’s baked into oh let’s say Orange cupcakes!. 🙂 Then yes, yes I do like it.

These cupakes are so fluffy and turn out to be a pretty pastel/pale orange. I just love them. Plus they only require 3 ingredients. Cake Mix, Orange Soda and Egg Whites.

Now I know some people don’t like to use boxed cake mix, but I am perfectly ok with using it. If you don’t like boxed cake mix, your favorite white homemade cake mix will work 🙂

These ended up being the perfect “Orange” food for my #SundaySupper post for this week. Not only did they work out perfectly for that they also will be heading to a bake sale today. My friend Nicole is hosting a bake sale today to raise money for Alzheimer’s Awareness and I’m donating these to the bake sale.

*fingers crossed* that they do well!
Since I sending them off to a bake sale, I had to package them up. My mom and I have been packing cupcakes in little punch cups for bake sales for probably the past 6 or so years and now I see the idea all over Pinterest haha.

But it is a good way to store them and sell them. I normally include a spoon or fork in the bag, so that whoever buys it doesn’t even have to take it out of the cup to eat it.

So just slide a cupcake into a tall cellophane bag, add a fork or spoon to it, tie with ribbon 🙂

Orange Soda Pumpkin Patch Cupcakes
by Angie Barrett October-07-2012

For Cupcakes:

  • 2 boxes French Vanilla Cake Mix
  • 24 oz Orange Soda
  • 4 egg whites

For Cupcake Icing: (Or you can use store bought)

  • 1 cup butter
  • 8 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 8 oz Cream cheese
  • 4 tablespoons heavy cream

For Toppers:

  • Orange Candy Pumpkins
  • Green tinted icing
  • Orange sanding sugar (optional)
  • Green icing (green food coloring mixed with icing)

Instructions

For Cupcakes:Pre-heat oven to 325F.In a large bowl, mix together cake mix, orange soda and egg whites.Line a muffin/cupcake tin with paper liners. Fill each cupcake liner 3/4 full of batter. This batter doesn’t rise very much so you may be able to fill them a little more. Bake at 325F for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.
For Cupcake Icing:Cream butter in the bowl of a mixer. Add cream cheese and mix well. Slowly add powdered sugar while mixing. Add vanilla and heavy cream and mix until combined.For my cupcake icing, I used a piping bag, fitted with a 2D Drop Flower Decorating Tip and swirled.
For Cupcake Toppers:Make a little bit of green icing with green food coloring and some of the icing mixed together. Pipe a tiny circle of green icing onto the center of the frosted cupcake.Place candy pumpkin on the circle. Pipe green vines onto the cupcake. Sprinkle with orange sanding sugars.

    Meet Angie

    I love the Farmer’s Market and Farm to Table meals but I’m also not ashamed to use canned vegetables and baking mixes. It’s all about balance! I’m so glad y’all are here!
