Time 3h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 ⅓ cups milk
1 cup white sugar
5 large egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
food coloring in 6 rainbow colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet)
2 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
⅓ cup confectioners' sugar
2 (8 ounce) containers mascarpone cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease six 9-inch round cake pans and dust with flour.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
  • Beat 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter, milk, sugar, egg whites, and vanilla extract in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Stir in flour mixture and mix until just combined.
  • Divide cake batter evenly between 6 bowls. Mix in different food coloring to each bowl, creating 6 different colored batters. Start with just 1 to 2 drops of food coloring in each bowl, then mix; you can always add more.
  • Bake each cake in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Stir together confectioners' sugar and mascarpone cheese in a separate bowl, then fold gently into the whipped cream until smooth.
  • Spread frosting on each layer of cooled cake, placing one on top of the other. Cover the top and sides with the remaining frosting. Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.

RAINBOW CLOUD CONFETTI CAKE

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 10 1/2 by 15 1/2 by1-inch sheet cake made with basic white cake in a buttered pan lined with parchment paper.
2 recipes Vanilla Buttercream divided into 5 bowls and colored red, orange, yellow, blue and green.
1 recipe Strawberry Coulis in a squeeze bottle, recipe follows
3 cups whipped cream
Confetti sprinkles
1 pint strawberries, cleaned and hulled
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Remove the cake from the pan and leave it on the parchment paper. Using the colored buttercream, spread stripes of the frosting lengthwise on the cake. Using parchment to lift and push forward, roll the cake lengthwise as tightly as possible. Once the cake is rolled, place on a large platter, seam side down. Shortly before serving, frost the cake with the whipped cream. Spread the whipped cream on generously and create swirls using a palette knife. To make the cloud-like swirls, lightly drag the palette knife through the whipped cream and gently pull up to make peaks. Decorate the platter outside of the cake with strawberry coulis and sprinkle the whole thing with confetti sprinkles. As the cake is sliced, a "rainbow" of frosting will be revealed on the inside.
  • Combine the strawberries, water, sugar and lemon juice in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved and the strawberries are quite soft. Puree the mixture in a blender. Strain through a fine strainer and cool.

Tips:

  • Prepare Ingredients and Equipment: Before starting, ensure all ingredients are measured accurately and at room temperature. Preheat the oven as directed in the recipe.
  • Use Quality Ingredients: Fresh and high-quality ingredients contribute to the best tasting cake. Use unsalted butter for better control over the saltiness.
  • Follow the Recipe Carefully: Baking is a precise process, so follow the recipe instructions carefully. Don't skip steps or substitute ingredients without understanding their impact.
  • Mix Properly: Don't overmix the batter, as this can result in a dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake Accurately: Bake the cake for the exact time specified in the recipe. Overbaking can dry out the cake, while underbaking can leave it raw.
  • Cool Completely: Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or decorating. This helps the cake set properly and makes it easier to handle.
  • Store Properly: Store the frosted cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Conclusion:

The Rainbow Cake with Clouds recipe is a delightful and visually stunning dessert that is sure to impress your friends and family. By following the tips provided, you can create a moist, colorful cake with fluffy, cloud-like frosting that will be a hit at any celebration.
