I made chocolate cupcakes for a friend's b-day. This is the first time I've made a chocolate cake, can you believe that? Anyway, I bought the cute Wilton Snappy Stripes pink liners to jazz up the cupcakes because I couldn't think of anything cute to do on top of the cupcakes. I was not in a creative mood. Point of the story, after I baked the cake and it got really dark and chocolate-y, you couldn't even tell that the liners were colored! So disappointed...but lesson learned.

Sorry that you wasted your money I bet they were very tasty...I love chocolate

I ususally bake chocolate cupcakes in two liners. That way you still get to see the colour of the liner.

That happened to me so I switched to using gold or silver foil liners when doing choc cupcakes.

Thanks for the double liner and gold/silver foil tips! I could get myself into all sorts of trouble buying cute cupcake liners!

The EXACT same thing happened to me last week and I was soooo disappointed. I love the stripey liners and wish we could get the matching boxes here. I tried doubling the liners but the second one (outside one) just fell off.
