After covering the cake I decided it needed a little added touch so I made a quick fondant bow to go around it too. I think it just makes it look a little bit more interesting.
Cutting this cake was the most nerve wracking thing I have ever done. All I could think was if this cake doesn't look good inside I am going to be devastated. But the collective gasp from my niece's friends as I cut out the first slice made it all worthwhile. I love how this cake turned out! It has got to be one of my cake making highlights.
The other great thing about making a rainbow cake is how pretty the whole process looks. Heres a few pics I shared on instagram that you may have missed.
I really hope I get another chance to make a rainbow cake because they are so much fun! Or maybe next time I will do an ombre one. That would be fun too!
It looks amazing. I love the fondant bow and I can see why everyone gasped when you cut into it.
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE it
ReplyDeleteKat, you are too awesome! This looks absolutely rockstar and that bow is the perfect finish!
ReplyDeleteKat I'm so impressed! This is amazing!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, you are so, so clever Kat! And so talented, honestly! This cake is divine-looking and I love the pretty colours before and after! It looks like it tasted delicious too!
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Will you make me one? ;)
ReplyDeleteamazing! silly question but how did you get the sprinkles on to the side of the cake so easy evenly?
ReplyDeleteThat is not a silly question at all! What I did was "glue" the cake to my cake board with a bit of icing. This allowed me to be able to tilt the cake board without the cake falling off. This way I could tilt the cake to the side and sprinkle the sides. I just took my time and went slow then went back over the spots that look a little bare. One tip would be to put the cake into a large container before doing the sprinkles otherwise you will end up with sprinkles all over the kitchen!

ReplyDeleteWOW! This is so much fun! I want to make one like this! Really great job.
ReplyDeleteKat this is awesome! You did a wonderful job. I have made both a rainbow cake and an ombre. I have the same silly question as Tamsin above. I would love to know the trick for gettig the perfect sprinkle covering.
