Rainbow cake

Posted on November 14, 2013 by myeye1

It was my brother’s birthday recently so his wife and my sister decided to make him a cake, but not just any cake; a rainbow cake. (and I did my bit of course – babysitting!). They took inspiration from the Hummingbord rainbow cake which looks amazing.

First they made the batter like normal (sorry not a great photo)

Then they mixed the batter with various colours of food colouring, adding more or less depending on how rich they wanted the colours to come out

Then putting them in the baking tins and spreading the batter evenly

Once cooked leave them to cool

Then the fun part-layering the different colours of the cake with icing or in this case low-fat cream cheese for the butter-cream icing holding it all together

Then just cover the whole cake in the icing and decorate as you like. All that is left is to chill and serve.

The cake is fairly easy to make, looks great and tastes delicious. For the recipe see here and you can see my sister’s write up of her baking skills here

I like how some of these sweets look like they’re locked in a glass box with some which have managed to escape!

Fiery leaves
My favourite time of the year is Autumn because the weather in London is often sunny and bright but feels cooler, and nature all around begins to change like the leaves on the trees from various greens to brilliant shades of reds, oranges and yellows. I also love Autumn because there’s less bugs around!

I love the rich colours and the traditional style of these bangles, which are typically used to add a bit of bling or sparkle to an outfit. This pair can be found here if you’d like to know more

This is my sister’s dress and string purse that she wore to her registry recently. I really like how the colours and embellishment work together

Colourful cupcakes

My sister has become quite talented at making cupcakes, all she needs is to be told what colours you want them in. These bright and colourful cupcakes were made for a henna party recently.
