Rainbow Cake With Food Coloring. Rainbow cakes are all the rage right now. Yes, the rainbow, especially when we consider Chef Lisa's Rainbow Layer Cake, four sweet layers of brightly colored cake coated in a creamy vanilla icing and decorated with Skittles.
But in the back of my mind I couldn't help but think of the negative discussion and controversy surrounding artificial food coloring. There's no need to use a scientific color order - create a rainbow using any color order you'd like. I used gel food coloring to color both my cake layers and my frosting in this rainbow cake recipe.
Be sure to conserve enough frosting to finish by frosting the entire cake, rather than using most of it up between layers.
These Rainbow Cupcakes are made with a simple boxed white cake mix, colored, and layered to make a rainbow, with whipped cream cheese frosting on top!
Wouldn't you feel special if someone made this for you? If you're hoping to avoid using food colouring when creating your rainbow cake you may have to try using different, powdered or natural coloured liquid instead. ⬇ Download rainbow cake - stock illustration and vectors in the best photography agency ✔ reasonable prices ✔ millions of high quality and royalty-free stock photos and images.
