Product Information

As the name suggests, this rainbow cake is a super fun and colorful dessert that’s guaranteed to brighten up your day. Color your fondant. After mixing 1 recipe of buttercream frosting and making 1 recipe of marshmallow fondant, split the fondant batch to add colors. Wrap the fondant tightly and securely until (and between)ready to use. Clean the cake pans and repeat the baking and cooling process with the remaining three cake layers.

Make the frosting. In a large mixing bowl, beat the shortening and butter on medium speed with an electric mixer until it’s light yellow. Gradually beat in the powdered sugar on low speed, then add the vanilla. Using the gel food colors, tint the batter in one bowl blue, one bowl red, one bowl green, one bowl yellow, one bowl orange (by using red and yellow), and one bowl purple (by using blue and red). For this cake, I did make probably the biggest one tier cake ever. It’s about 8-9” in height, and uses so many ingredients. Because it is a six layer cake I decided to make it in two batches. So three layers at a time, so therefore you still only need three tins! Place the first layer of cake on a cake plate or cardboard cake circle, then top it with about 1 cup of frosting and spread into an even layer.

Ingredients

Add the butter, vegetable oil and sugar to a large mixer bowl and beat together until light in color and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Do not skimp on the creaming time. You should be able to see the change in the color and texture of the mixture. Divide the batter. Divide the batter equally among 6 small bowls, giving each bowl around 1 1/3 cups of batter. For the best color, try clear vanilla extract! It can be found in the party and cake supplies sections at WalMart, Hobby Lobby, or Michael's crafts. Refrigerate three colors of batter until ready to bake. Pour the remaining three colors of batter into the prepared cake pans.

Once things are creamed, add your eggs and vanilla extract. Finally, add your dry ingredients and buttermilk by alternating adding them to the batter. Be sure not to over mix the batter. It can over develop the gluten in the flour and you end up with a tough cake. No fun!
