    cakeMix - CupCake Cake

    Things You'll Need:
    2 boxes moist butter cake mix
    1 1/2 tsp. of marshmallow flavoring
    4 containers of white butter cream frosting
    6 tsp. of marshmallow frosting
    Food coloring
    Plastic sandwich bags

    Step 1:
    Using the directions that are on the cake boxes make two round cakes.

    Step 2:
    Follow the directions on the box mix to make as many cupcakes as you desire.

    Step 3:
    Cool the cakes and cupcakes completely before you begin to assemble your cake.

    Step 4:
    Use 1/2 cup of butter cream frosting to sandwich round cakes together.
    Flatten the top layer, then cover the top and the sides with the remaining butter cream frosting.

    Step 5:
    Put the cake in the refrigerator and let it chill for 1 to 2 hours.

    Step 6:
    Take the remaining 2 pints of butter cream frosting and put it into four different bowls.
    Add a teaspoon and a half of marshmallow flavoring to each of the frosting bowls.
    Add different food colorings into each of the frosting bowls.

    Step 7:
    Pour the different colored frosting into four small sandwich bags with about 1/2 cup of each color.
    Use scissors and cut a small slit on one side of the bottom of each bag and lightly pipe varying sizes
    of dots on the layer cake.

    Step 8:
    Frost the cupcakes with the remaining colored butter cream frosting.

    Step 9:
    Stack the frosted cupcakes in a three-level pyramid on top of the cake to begin the layers of the cupcake cake.

    Step 10:
    Continue to build the pyramid by adding seven cupcakes to the bottom layer, three to the middle layer
    and one cupcake on top.
