Rainbow cake w/ cream cheese frosting ♥




Curious about how to bake a Rainbow cake?
I shall teach you how I did this in a few simple steps ♥

NOTE: I'm NOT a professional baker or what, in fact it's my first time baking a whole cake (seriously no joke) So it might NOT be the correct/exact way of doing this... BUT I'm just here to share the whole process of how I did it :)

 SO ARE YOU READY?! :D
Before we start off with anything, here's a list of ingredients you should have.


 As for my cake mix, I used this!

You can find it anywhere la hahaha~

So before you start mixing anything...

REMEMBER TO PRE-HEAT YOUR OVEN!!!
Set it at 170-180 degrees Celsius

 







I added quite a lot of food colouring! Well, it's up to your own preference :) If you want your cake to have the pastel feel, then just drip a little will do! For me, I dripped it little by little to get the colors I wanted (but end up dripping ALOT la hahahaha)


I bought my mega cute silicon cake moulds from DAISO!!! It's so damn worth it & GOOD/EASY TO USE <3 <3 <3 There are many different sizes! FYI: I bought the 15cm mould :)Anyway bake it for about 20-30 mins till the top part turns a little brown!

While it's baking... you can start preparing the cream cheese frosting :)

Okay this part is... VERY SIMPLE. Just dump the cream cheese, icing sugar (sifted), butter,  vanilla OR buttermilk essence into the bowl & mix it well with an electronic mixer *preferred method* BUT if you don't have an electronic mixer, you just need to beat it till it's really smooth & creamy (walao i swear it's MEGA tiring lor, better to have a mixer seriously!!!)

If the cake is still not done yet, you can leave the frosting in the fridge first :)



Don't forget to start from the bottom layer first yo! OH AND, let it cool down first before you start spreading the cream cheese frosting on it!!! (if not it'll melt or idkwhat will happen lol!)






Not enough frosting because I only used a pack of cream cheese and I also know i can't spread the frosting nicely -_- super-no-skill hahahaha~


WHEE~ IT'S A RAINBOW! ^^
HEHEHE

Alright! That's the end of my erm-kinda-simple tutorial hahaha! I hope it's useful, I'm seriously not an expert at baking, I just bake for the fun & joy of it hehe :)

Good luck at baking your rainbow cake too! :D Do leave a comment or show me pictures of the rainbow cakes you ppl baked k! I'd love to see it!!! ♥♥♥
