Ingredients

Unicorn Rainbow Icing

2 cups
Mirage Margarine, room temperature
1 tbsp
vanilla extract
4 cups
icing sugar, sifted
2 tbsp
35% cream

Directions

In a large bowl, cream the Mirage Margarine on high speed with an electric mixer for 3 minutes, until smooth and fluffy.

Add the vanilla extract. Mix on low speed until the extract is just combined.

Add 1 cup of the icing sugar to the creamed Mirage Margarine, and mix on low speed just until incorporated.

Continue adding the icing sugar 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add cream and mix well.

Divide mixture into 3 (or up to 5 depending on how many colours you want to use) and respectively add a few of your favourite rainbow colours. We used fuschia, violet, turquoise, and yellow.

Divide between three small zippable freezer bags and distribute to a point in the bag. Carefully cut tips of bags and put into an extra large zippable freezer bag.

Chef’s Notes:

  • At most bulk food stores you can find edible sparkly sprinkles which will look extra “magical” on your cupcakes.
