Learn how to make an inside out rainbow cake using buttercream and jelly beans.
Rainbow cake recipe ingredients:
• Three 8" chocolate cakes
• Coloured buttercream (red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple)
• White Buttercream (My recipe: http://youtu.be/rjqOTM5icOE)
• Jellybeans (red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple)
• Wilton tip 2A (or any round open tip)
Procedure:
1. Bake and cool cakes. Prepare buttercreams and place each individual colour into a piping bag with a 1/4" of the tip snipped off with scissors.
2. Place bottom cake layer onto cake plate and secure with a swipe of buttercream. Using the purple buttercream first, apply a ring of buttercream around the outer edge of the cake, about 2 centimeters wide. Repeat with a second layer on top of the first layer.
3. Next, switching to blue buttercream, apply a ring of buttercream inside the purple buttercream ring, and complete one blue ring around the cake. Repeat with a second layer of blue on top of blue.
4. Repeat with green. Then repeat with yellow. Then repeat rings with orange, and finally fill the centre in with red buttercream.
5. Place second cake layer on top of the buttercream rings.
6. Repeat coloured rings on top of the second layer, just as it was done for the first-starting with purple on the outside, and working towards the centre (red). When completed, place the third layer of cake on top, ensure the cake is straight up and down, and then place in the freezer to solidify the buttercream.
7. Once the buttercream has solidified, you can cover the cake entirely with the white buttercream, using a metal cake spatula. Ensure the top and sides are smooth.
8. On the top of the cake, take the purple jelly beans and make a ring around the outer edge of the cake like what was done earlier with the purple buttercream ring. Repeat with a second ring of purple jelly beans.
9. Using the blue jellybeans, make a ring around the inside of the purple jelly beans. Repeat with a second ring of blue.
10. Repeat rings with green, then yellow, orange and finally red.
11. Using your leftover buttercream in a piping bag fitted with a 2A tip and pipe small round balls or icing next to the purple jelly beans around the top as a border.
12. Repeat the same technique for the bottom border of the cake.
13. Allow cake to thaw before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
