# Directions:
01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line cupcake trays and baking sheets with liners or parchment paper as needed.
02 - Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Alternately add the dry ingredients and milk to the butter mixture, mixing until smooth. Divide batter evenly into four bowls and tint each with a different food coloring. Layer colored batters into cupcake liners. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely.
03 - Beat butter until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing thoroughly. Stir in milk and vanilla extract; beat until fluffy. Divide frosting into separate bowls and tint with food coloring to match cupcake colors. Fill a piping bag with colors side by side and pipe a multicolored swirl onto cooled cupcakes. Garnish with edible glitter and unicorn-themed sprinkles.
04 - Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually add superfine sugar while continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Divide meringue into portions and tint with food coloring. Using a piping bag fitted with a star tip, pipe small kisses onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake at 200°F for one hour or until dry. Cool completely.
05 - Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla extract. Gradually add flour, mixing to form dough. Roll dough to a 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into unicorn and star shapes using cookie cutters. Bake at 350°F for 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool, then decorate with pastel royal icing and edible gold dust.
06 - Arrange cupcakes, meringue kisses, and sugar cookies on tiered stands. Scatter rainbow marshmallows, pastel candies, edible stars, and pearls around the display. Add mini unicorn cake toppers for a magical finish.
