Rainbow Cake

hey there, today was my mom's birthday and as I know she simply adores colours as much as I do that's why i brought her a bouquet of different colours of roses and you shouldn have seen the look on her face once she saw them,SPEECHLESS back to the point,I made for the first time a rainbow cake with cream cheese frosting and here are the ingredients that I used:))


             For the rainbow cake:

  • 330 grams (3 cups) all-purpose flour
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 525 grams (2 1/3 cups) sugar
  • 5 large egg whites, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups milk, room temperature
  • A few drops of blue,yellow,orange and green food coloring (you can use as much as you like:P)
For the cream cheese frosting:
PS: To frost all the cake you need a big quantity of frosting to fill the entire cake
1- 400 g ( 1 big or 2 small ones)  unsalted butter, room temperature 
2- 400 g ( two of them) philadelphia cream cheese
3- There's no limits for powder sugar if you are a desert person use as much as you think is okay and if you're not diminish the quantity it's you're choice





At the end add some coloured sprinkles to give a colourful touch on the outside


Don't you love the incredible contrast, simple and white on the outside and when you dig in you get that alternation of rainbow colours this is my favourite part!!
