Last week I finally made a rainbow cake for a friend’s shower… I’ve seen so many around and though they’re pretty easy, hadn’t done it yet.
The verdict? Looks awesome, tastes okay. If I used Ina’s white cake recipe, which I love, it would have been much better… but because I was on a time crunch I used cake mixes. So really, it was a colorful boxed cake ;)
The layers are so thin they cook really quickly. Here’s what I used:
- 2 white cake mixes
- Homemade lemon cream cheese frosting
- Wilton dying gels coloring
Separate the batter. Dye it. Bake two layers at a time for 15-18 minutes each.
Perfect for a party or shower.
Did you use 2 c. of Sprite instead of the eggs/oil/water? It makes the cake taste a lot better! (: I looks yummy. (:
