There are lots of healthier ways to go about making this, but I didn't feel like it.
My 4 year old has been suffering the longest, so I thought this would make her happy. It did.
I let her do most of it. It is fun for the kids if nothing else.Oh, and I am not a baker as you Baker Betty's will see. So don't laugh.
How we made it: (added 3 more pics)
White cake mix
food coloring (they say the gel kind works better, but we used the regular)
6 bowls
icing
1. Make cake batter (I just followed the box directions)
2. divide into 6 bowls ( or however many colors you want)
3. add food coloring (we didn't follow a set amount, just added until we liked the color)
4.pour the first color into the center of the pan slowly (I started with red- I did then in the order of the rainbow-also, if you are making 2 layers , just use half of the colored mix per pan)
5. pour the next color (orange) into the center of the first- SLOWLY
6. repeat with all colors - I "shimmied" the pan slightly to get the batter to spread after I added each color
7. bake, cool, apply icing as normal
