Sharing is caring!

We worked on a fun video project last month with Reynolds and Epicurious Community Table.  They reached out to us to create a fun treat using Reynolds Foil Baking Cups for the 4th of July holiday.  We had a great time putting together this baking project as well as creating this recipe for Patriotic Vanilla Confetti Cupcakes.

It's delicious! I'm made it last year for my Independence Day party and it was a hit! You've got to try these, with only two days until Independence Day, I'm making them again!
