garnish with sugar sprinkles, shaking on the colors in three separate strips. Add
chocolate coins and gold dragées, if desired. The cupcakes are ready to serve.
(Remove the dragées before serving the cupcakes.) Store these cupcakes, in a
cake saver or under a glass dome, at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the
refrigerator for up to 1 week. Or freeze them, wrapped in aluminum foil or in a
cake saver, for up to 6 months. Thaw the cupcakes overnight in the refrigerator
before serving.

occasion for which you might want to decorate with two or three colors.
They might be your school colors, or the colors of the season, or just the
favorite colors of the birthday boy or girl. But the gold coins and dragées
turn these cupcakes into an instant party.
