The Omnomicon has a fabulous step-by-step Rainbow Cake tutorial and the colorful pictures alone are positively drool-worthy! This recipe would be so much fun for a color party, a 60′s theme party, an art-lover’s birthday, or anytime you feel like brightening up the dessert table a bit.
You could also take the same concept and apply it to just a few colors or a different type of palette - maybe various shades of green for St. Patrick’s day, red/white/blue for 4th of July, or the birthday girl’s favorite colors, whatever they may be…
This next pic is one of my favorites… artistic, colorful, & all around delicious:
The baked cake looks so great it almost seems like it would be hard to cover it with frosting, don’t you think?! The pretty colors come through again when the cake is cut and served though (see top pic, above).
For complete details, check out the full tutorial. Happy Baking!

Superb!! awesome pictures as well!
I loooooooove it! YUM! :)
I made this tonight with my mom for my birthday…. And well lets just say…… TOTAL FAIL!!! I was soooo disappointed! The cakes cracked and crumbled everywhere taking it out of the baking pans. I don’t know if whoever put the instructions on here maybe left some steps out or what… But something is NOT right.. I followed the directions perfectly.. and like i said failure. Taste good, but looks HORRIBLE. And the recipe makes way too much icing. Somebody needs to redue the recipe… Sorry, but if you can’t tell I’m a little upset… We spent hours doing this and the way it turned is sooo not like the picture. I do not recommend to anyone.
perfect for my baby’s first birthday! smashcake sheek

Lackling inspiration, I googled ‘fabulous cake’ and that is exactly what I got. THANKS SO MUCH – can’t wait to get baking!
