I tried this out last night! It came out SO CUTE, until the top layer slid off & onto the kitchen floor. I didn’t hear it happen, but the dogs did and had wolfed down about 1/2 the top layer by the time I caught them. The bottom 1/2 was delicious. : )

Adorable! So brilliant “admitting” that the Easter Bunny made it for them!

I’ve made it twice. Once the diet version, once just using cake mix & coloring. Both times it was a huge success. In fact my aunt asked me to make her one for her birthday.

The diet cake is a little bland, but if you’re dieting & wanting cake, it’s fabulous.

Following normal cake directions, it tastes like cake. You really can’t tell the difference.

I used the gel food coloring and the colors are so vibrant.

Yikes. Looks like a lot of work! Mom always made “rainbow jello cakes” for birthdays. You basically just poke holes in a vanilla cake, pour different colored unset Jello on top and then top with Cool Whip.

While it looks amazing, I wonder how it tastes? I can usually taste food coloring in cakes, and can’t enjoy the popular “red velvet” cake for that reason…
