Prepare cake batter according to package directions.
Fill cones ⅔ of the way full with batter and place gently in muffin tin or cake pan.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until tops are lightly golden.
Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
Add 3 drops of red and 2 drops of yellow into a small bowl or directly into frosting can and stir well, continue adding food coloring until desired shade of orange is reached.
Frost tops of cupcakes generously with a rubber spatula, smoothing upwards and gently flicking outward to create “flames”.
