Rainbow Birthday Cake




Courtesy of The Hungry Huntley's

1 yellow cake mix (follow directions on package)
Food coloring (I used the type for frosting so it didn't add more liquid to batter)
1 pkg skittles (for the rainbow)
1 cup miniature marshmallows (for the clouds)

If you use 6" cake pans and a muffin tin you will only need 1 cake mix.

Seperate batter into bowls for the desired amount of colors and color each bowl with the color to the depth you desire with food coloring

Pour into greased 6" cake pans. Decrease cooking time to aproximately 10 minutes.

When each layer is cooled frost them and stack in your desired order. Freeze after all stacked which will make frosting the outside much easier.

Place the skittles in a rainbow pattern on top of cake and use remaining ones around the top edge of the cake. Marshmallows are placed at the bottom of the rainbow and on the cupcakes.
