Rainbow Cake: the ultimate Spectacle



This was a multipart Cake. SO i started off by making the batter which consisted of.
  • 1 c sugar
  • 1/2 c butter (melted)
i beat that all together and i added
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1/2 of a vanilla bean
Beat that all together than sift in
  • 3/2 c all-purpose flour
  • 7/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup of milk
Than beat the egg whites in another bowl and fold into the above batter.

Now this is where it gets fun, but hectic. Divide the batter into 5-10 bowls, depending on how many colors you want to make. we made 6, purple/blue/green/yellow/orange /Red
with food coloring

Than we layered them one color at a tip into pans. We did them in opposite ways, which made a cool effect. We than
  • baked in oven at 350 F for 25ish min
Hopefully they look something like this



Finally i made the icing. I mixed
  • 1/2 c of butter (melted)
  • 1/4 c of milk
  • 3/2 c of icing sugar
  • 1/2 vanilla bean
Beat that together than put into fridge. (Add more icing sugar if you want it thicker.)

Once cakes are cool, coat with Icing and than
  • sprinkle m&ms on top
  • design candy
  • make even more delicious?
So yea, basically the final product is something like htis.
