She in now 6 years old, and loves rainbows! She saw a rainbow cake and asked to have one for her birthday, so that’s what she got.
We mixed up 2 boxed of cake mix and divided it into 6 different bowls to make the colors. I used a bit of food coloring in each bowl to made the desired colors. I used my homemade butter cream between the layers of cake and on the outside of the cake. We added rainbow sprinkles to the outside of the cake and dyed some more buttercream to make the rainbow on the top of the cake.
