How else can you decorate St. Patrick's Day cupcakes?<\/h3>
To mix up your St. Patrick's Day cupcake decorating, try piping on some clouds (or making clouds out of marshmallows) and attaching them together with a strip of colorful candy to make a rainbow, like in our tie-dyed cupcakes recipe<\/a>. You can also buy shamrock-shaped sprinkles, or create a pot of gold using chocolates and edible glitter. \r\n

What other cupcakes can you make for St. Patrick's Day?<\/h3><\/div>
Whip up a tray of creme de menthe cupcakes<\/a> for St. Patrick's Day, or try these Irish cream cupcakes<\/a>. You can add a bit of green food coloring to keep with the St. Patrick's Day theme. Or, make our easy chocolate cupcakes <\/a>and add Guinness to the batter. For more inspiration, check out these St. Patrick's Day desserts<\/a>. \r\n

How do you make fluffy cupcakes? <\/h3><\/div>
Avoid common cake mistakes<\/a> and ensure your cupcakes turn out moist and fluffy every time by making sure your oven temperature is correct and you aren\u2019t overbaking the cupcakes. An oven that\u2019s too hot and a batter that\u2019s exposed to heat too long leads to a dried-out dessert. If your cupcakes come out too dry even with the right baking time and temperature, you may be adding too many dry ingredients. Experiment with adding less of the dry ingredients or increasing the amount of liquid ingredients in your batter.
