My favorite girl in the entire world is turning two, my niece Maddie James. She is spending her second birthday being spoiled by grandma in Michigan. If you couldn't tell, Kitty (my chosen auntie name) is less than thrilled to be missing out on the fun. Aunt Jamie made her the cutest cake that I just had to share with you, a Rainbow Swirl Cake. The recipe and instructions can be found here, from In Katrina's Kitchen.
What I love most about this cake is how simple it is. No complex flavors, no crazy baking techniques, just add a little food coloring and you have an instant birthday party hit! Jamie topped her cake with white frosting and multi-color nonpareil sprinkles. I can't wait to try one of my own, maybe a Halloween color scheme.
Tips from Aunt Jamie: Less is more, use neon food coloring for pink/orange/purple/green, and regular food colors for blue and yellow.
