We are going to bake a rainbow cake!
Can you teach us how to bake one??
Of course! But keep in mind, this is only our second attempt!
For the cake we are going to bake, you will need the following:
Step 1)Ā Put the sugar and butter into a bowl and mix together until smooth.
Step 2)Ā Mix the eggs and the vanilla extract into the mixture until combined.

After seeing Wizard Howl cracking eggs with one hand in Howlās Moving Castle,Ā I just had to practice it!
Step 3)Ā MixĀ the flour into the mixture until combined. Then separate the mixture equally into six different bowls. After this, put food colouring into it. You donāt need too much of it! (We used about half a teaspoon of each colour) Then stir the colours into the mixture.
Step 4) Grease up some sandwich tins (we used 20cm/8 inch ones) and put one of the coloured mixtures into it. We used two sandwich tins at a time because we could only fit two tins onto a single tray in the oven. You donāt want to put the tins onto different trays because they will cook at different speeds. Then put the tins with the mixture into the middle of the oven at 160Ā°C or 320Ā°F for 15 minutes, swapping each colour out until you have them all done.
Step 5) Once they come out of the oven, youāll have cakes that look like the photo below! Donāt be worried if your cake looks a bit discoloured, itās normal as the cake baked while touching the metal tin. We used a bowl as a template to cut around the cake to make it a bit smaller and to show off the vibrant colour!
Step 6) Now lets make the icing! Mix 350g (1.5 cups) of butter, 700g (5.5 cups) of icing sugar, and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract together with an electric whisk until nice and smooth. Be careful, icing sugar can be messy!
Step 7) After the cakes have cooled off, place the first cake layer down (purple) and cover the top with icing. Next place the Ā blue cake layer on top and again cover the top with icing. Repeat this step for all the colours, next placing green, yellow, orange, and then red. Finish this step by covering the whole cake with icing.

We are almost done! Stay tuned for the big reveal!
