The rainbow party was a success! We had so much fun getting ready for it and the kids all seemed to have a great time. We made these super easy and cute hanging rainbows (made with paper plates!).
The cake… was amazing. It was totally gone by the end of the party, a sure sign of a good cake!
The best part of this party was seeing my sweet little girl this happy.
We ‘ll so lucky to have her in our lives.

oh, this post makes me sniff with nostalgia. I can’t believe how fast they’re growing up. And that cake! my goodness. You may have just inspired me to make one. If I can get off my butt and get motivated, that is!

hi sweet lady! hope you are feeling well. 🙂
p.s the cake is pretty easy… we took a wee shortcut and used a cake mix… more fluffy too. i used 2 boxes of cake mix and divided it by six. i also used half whipped cream and half icing, otherwise it’s rather a crazy amount of icing!

Hey! I am thinking that I will make this cake – so did you just add the food gel colouring to a regular white cake mix (in 6 parts?) and which parts are whipped cream and which parts icing – i like that idea A LOT. so much icing!
and, how many people would you say this cake feeds? I may have to make 2!!!
Thanks Lori, for your thoughts. I am well but have just been feeling kind of introverted and quiet. But I’ve been starting to get worried emails and people asking me if I need them to pray for me so i better get on blogging again!!

i used 2 cake mixes and divided it by 6, and i used the gel food colour (you only need a tiny tiny bit!).
for the icing…. it’s pretty much half whipped cream, half icing.
we fed 8 six year olds, 3 two year olds, one teenager and 7 adults with our cake! there was 1 piece left that went to the neighbours! it’s pretty big.
glad to hear you are well and only feeling introverted. i was getting worried about you too, missing your lovely posts. 🙂
