Healthy Gender Reveal Cupcakes (Gluten-Free!)
Healthy Gender Reveal Cupcakes are soft, fluffy, and made with wholesome ingredients. Each cupcake is filled with a naturally dyed frosting for a fun surprise center that is sure to create a memorable gender reveal!
Equipment
- 1 Food Processor
- 1 Small Sharp Knife
Ingredients
- 12 Gluten-Free Vanilla Cupcakes
Naturally Dyed Pink Frosting
- 1 Cup Dairy-Free Vanilla Frosting Any vanilla frosting will work, I love Miss Jones Bakes Vanilla Frosting.
- ¼ Cup Freeze Dried Strawberries Add more or less depending on the shade of pink you want!
Naturally Dyed Blue Frosting
- 1 Cup Dairy-Free Vanilla Frosting
- ½ Teaspoon Blue Spirulina Powder Add more or less depending on the shade of blue you're looking for.
Instructions
- Start by cutting a small about 1 inch wide and 1 inch deep in the center of each cupcake. I find cutting at an angle works best so you don't have too big of a hole to fill.
- Next, use a spoon or piping bag to fill each cupcake with your desired color. Don't fill too high because you don't want the frosting spilling out the edges.
- Cut the bottom part of the cupcake that you removed so you're left with a little "cap." Place the cupcake "caps" back on the top of each one to cover up the colored frosting.
- Finish by frosting the top of each cupcake with vanilla or chocolate frosting! Enjoy!
Notes
** Note that nutrition facts will vary depending on the cupcake recipe and frosting you use!
Expert Tips
- Use a small sharp knife to cut out the center of each cupcake. Cut at an angle or cut out a small plug so you can fill with the colored frosting.
- Top the cupcakes with pink sprinkles and blue sprinkles, or funfetti sprinkles! I love Supernatural or Watkins naturally dyed sprinkles.
- For cupcake liners, I love the If You Care brand because they're made of parchment paper so they will peel off easily.
- Save time by using a boxed vanilla cupcake mix! Simple Mills makes one that is gluten-free!
