Seriously. The only thing about Pinterest that I don't like, is that it makes me want to eat food. All the time. But it also inspires me to try new things.
My close friend made rainbow cupcakes, and they looked Delicious. She explained to me how she just used food coloring to dye the cakes then just poured the batter in the cupcake tin. I was astonished. HOW DID I NOT LEARN HOW TO DO THIS EARLIER? I told myself that i was going to make rainbow cupcakes. I was determined. But I needed inspiration. This is were Pinterest comes along. as I looked through all the 'pins', I had an epiphany. Why make rainbow cupcakes when you can make a cake?
That's where it all began.
after studying the recipe off Whisk Kid, I not only decided i was going to make this cake, I decided i was going to make it WELL. Determination is key.
Food coloring. Check.
I baked the red and orange batter. They looked so wonderful. I was so proud. Until the cakes decided they didn't want to be taken out of the pan. I was discouraged, but i decided i was going to make cake balls out of the crumbled batter. (It ended up in the trash, despite my plans) i had to remake the red and orange batter, and the yellow cake barely came out in one piece, but after baking and A LOT of cake, this i what i got after stacking and frosting the inside, in between each cake. Terrible. I know. 
Frosting does amazing things.
And that, my friends, is how you make a rainbow cake.
