I have to admit, I actually baked this cake a couple of months ago. But, I’m just so proud of how it turned out, that I felt it necessary to share my success. I was browsing Pinterest a couple of months ago, when I was dazed and confused after getting my wisdom teeth out, and came across this delicious looking rainbow cake. Because I couldn’t go anywhere without getting sick, I decided to try to make this cake. I asked my mom to get the supplies for me, which consisted of white cake batter, food coloring, and icing. I hadn’t really prepared for it, but I ended up using five different bowls in order to separate the batter. You then fill the bottom with one color and go on to layer with whatever color you want to come next. When I got to this part it wasn’t working how I had anticipated, so I just started to spread all of the colors wherever they happened to land (hence the reason that I don’t have a perfect rainbow layer). I then put it in the oven and this masterpiece came out. One tip I would give anyone who tries this is make sure to coat your cake pan with non-stick oil (like Pam or Crisco) because I did, but not enough and my cake split in half when I took it out of the pan. Another tip is to get a cupcake tray ready too. Depending on the size of your pan, all of the batter may not fit into the cake pan, for instance this happened to me and I ended up making about a dozen rainbow cupcakes to go along with the cake (which I must say ended up looking prettier). Overall, making this cake is a lot easier than it seems. And it is a lot of fun. You can make whatever colors you want (I didn’t think of this at the time, but it would make a great graduation cake, as you could use your schools colors to fill the inside and do whatever on the outside). This is a great way to pass the time and also provides you with a very delicious treat!
