Best 3 Rainbow Cake With Clouds Recipes

EASY SIX-LAYER RAINBOW CAKE

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 IN THE CLOUDS CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a standard Bundt pan with baking spray.
• Beat cake mix, water, eggs and oil in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes. Pour batter into pan.
• Bake 33 to 36 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack 15 minutes, remove from pan and cool completely.
• Place butter in a large mixing bowl and beat on high speed until pale, smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Gradually add in the confectioners' sugar, beating on low speed until incorporated then follow with cream, salt and vanilla and mix for one minute.
• Cut cake in half through the center to form two half circles. Place one half circle on flat surface with flat side up and frost top with buttercream. Place second cake layer on top so that the flat sides are together. Frost the arch with buttercream.
• Spread some buttercream on serving board or platter. Gently turn cake onto buttercream on board to make an arch. Frost entire cake with remaining frosting.
• Place marshmallows around the bottom of the cake to look like clouds, cutting them in different sizes if desired. Place red, orange, yellow, green and blue candies all over the cake to make a rainbow. Slice and serve!

RAINBOW CLOUD CONFETTI CAKE

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.
