How to make it:
1. First, top a cooled cupcake with grass-green frosting.
2. For the rainbow, use a large, heavy knife (parents only) to cut a long, narrow strips from each of several flavors of Airheads candies (this is sticky stuff, so work on waxed paper). Lay the strips side by side, press them together, then cut the ribbon of strips in half to make two rainbows.
3. Curve each one into an arch and trim the ends as shown. Set one rainbow upright on the cupcake and add a pot’s worth of gold coins at one end. If necessary, place a gold coin behind the rainbow for support.
