Rainbow Cake

A friend on our BBM stated : " If I didn't know better I would say this is art on Canvas "

How happy that makes us only we know !!
Its been a design we've been wanting to do since someone posted a Rainbow Cupcake on our wall and well one day when we saw it at the amazinng Izzy's Cakes we decided , let's do it.

Its fairly easy so if any of you out there want to do it , here's how :

Start with a plain vanilla cake recipe that you like. Now this you can do 2 ways :
1. Make all 7 cakes together which means you've to have a commercial oven and 7 molds of the same size.
2. Make each one individually and repeat the process 7 times.

Once you've decided the method here goes :
1. Colour the cakes the various rainbow colours. Remember VIBGYOR ( Violent, Indigo , Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange and Red - Embarrassing to say but we missed one !!! Can you guess which one ? )
2. Bake them one by one or all together but make sure the colours are deep enough so that they show nicely.
3. Stack them one on top of the other as given below with your choice of icing in between ( Whipped Cream or Butter Cream). The cream in between will make them stick to each other.

We missed one colour !! Guess which one??


4. Put an outside layer of icing , again the same as what you filled inside and decorate it with sprinkles.
Voila!! Cake with Sprinkles


The inside of the cake

If you are the adventurous types you can also experiment with flavours. But make sure they all compliment each other so it could be Vanilla- Lemon Alternate or Vanilla- Butterscotch. You could also have different flavours in each cake but then those would have to be eaten seperately ( And might not be that great an idea:)) 

Do let us know how it went and if you need any help , feel free to message us:)
