Multi Flavoured Rainbow Cake

I rrrrreally like it with cream cheese frosting though.

Multi flavoured rainbow cake.

It s simple tender delicious and pairs up with pretty much any frosting flavor under the sun. Spread with frosting to within 1 4 inch of edge. Reline and grease the pans and bake the final three layers. Pour half into separate bowl.

Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 5 minutes then turn out onto a wire rack. Carefully remove the aluminum wrapped cardboard from the cake pan and flip the cake out onto a cake stand. Prepare cake batter from 1 pkg. You just need to set aside some time to bake three sets of sponges then decorate your showstopper and i ve made sure there s plenty of icing so no danger of running short before the end.

I wanted my layers to be full size 9 inch layer cakes and not thin. Cake mix as directed on package. Cover bottoms with parchment. It s kind of a cross between a white cake and a hummingbird cake in flavor.

On serving plate place purple cake layer. Allow the cake layers to cool completely. Step by step i own three 8 cake tins so i did three layers of the cake at a time i started by creaming the butter and sugar together with the lemon zest. Allow the cake to cool for up to 2 hours.

It s one of my go to cake flavors whenever i m making something for a crowd. Spread light coat of frosting on top and side of cake to seal in crumbs then frost with remaining frosting. A rainbow cake has long been one of my favourites for a special occasion it looks so impressive yet it s a relatively simple process. Cover the cake with chocolate buttercream taking care to keep track of what layer is where.

Bake cake for 25 to 30 minutes until layers are fragrant and spring back when touched. Then i added the eggs and self raising flour and split the mixture between three bowls. One cake mix makes only 2 full sized layers. Repeat with blue green yellow orange and red cake layers.

It took a small box of each flavor of gelatin in the double recipe so no measuring needed. Trim rounded tops off cakes to level if needed.
