These rainbow poke cupcakes are full of flavor (literally!). You see, since they are called poke cupcakes, you will be poking them and pouring lime gelatin over the holes, which will make them a fun green and a tasty flavor. The little ones love poking these, and it’s an easy job to let them help out in the kitchen. These make great snacks and would be perfect for any party. Enjoy…
