Fanta Cupcakes in a Jar
The Fanta cupcakes in a jar made with white cake mix, yoghurt and Fanta. Using ready made frosting and mason jars as the vessel for the cakes. This is an easy sweet treat that all the family can help to make. And perfect for gift giving.
Ingredients
- 1 package of white cake mix
- 1/2 cup of oil
- 1/2 cup of Greek yoghurt
- 1 cup of Fanta
- 2 cups of orange color frosting ready made
- 3 cups of vanilla flavored frosting ready made
- 1/4 cup of colored sprinkles
- 6 small 8oz mason jars with lids
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl add the white cake mix, then add the oil, the yoghurt and finally the Fanta. Combine with a whisk and place the batter inside a decorating plastic bag.
- Place the mason jars in a deep baking pan and start piping the batter halfway. Do that to the six jars. Then add enough water to the baking pan. It is required to cook the cupcake jars in a water bath to prevent cracking.
- Bake the cupcakes inside the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-45 minutes. These cupcakes take longer to cook vs cooking on a traditional cupcake baking pan.
- When the cupcakes are ready take out of the oven and let them get cold before decorating. You might opt to bake the day before to allow enough time for the cupcakes to get cold.
- Use ready made frosting and add to a decorating bag. Pipe first the orange color and then the vanilla. Decorate with colorful sprinkles, stickers and and add a dessert spoon using some ribbon to attach it.
Notes
These Fanta cupcakes are great for gift giving and for handmade baskets.
The mason jar preserves the cake and allows for easy packaging and transportation.
The jar can be used again for other purposes too.
