Rainbow Cake

I've seen these wonderful (real) cakes on Martha Stewart and on Flickr. If they can bake it, I can make it! : ) I was pretty giddy about my idea. I popped out of bed on early Saturday morning and got straight to work. Each slice is an extremely large/tall piece of cake. But they are so much fun! They are available in my shop.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

April 15, 2009 by vanjeffery

I don’t normally make birthday cakes for myself.  It always seemed kind of silly really.  But this year, the kids are on school holidays, and well, we needed an activity.
Someone posted a link to a Omnomicon on one of the forums I’m on, about how to make a Rainbow Cake.  LOVE the look of this cake. I’m not normally into such bright colours, but this is just too cool.
So I bought some cake mix and pulled out the gel dyes.
A good blogger would have taken more pictures, but oh well.
These are how the cakes looked while cooling.  I was a bit distraught at the browning of the violet colour, but it was still workable. And no, mine are the full fat, full calorie version.
