You are either game, or a really good baker! I did this cake for my dd's first birthday, and it almost got the better of me! It took me 13 hours to get one perfect bottom, and one near perfect top.
So I would prob say try the marble first, and see how you go with that, and then maybe do rainbow icing. I iced the top, and then for the bottom, I made a chocolate mould out of the cake tin for it to sit in, and it looked fabulous, even of I do say so myself ;P
Good luck, and I'm sure your DD will love whatever you make for her x
That will look just gorgeous! Are you going to coat it in choc, or make a mould? I found an awesome blog site with directions for a mould which is what I used. Was super easy, and saved fiddling with icing the bottom etc.
The directions are here if you are interested. I just used chocolate melts, and it worked a treat!
Pink and purple will look really pretty. If you have the skills though, give the rainbow a go! What have you got to lose??? And you get to munch on the trial cake
Rainbow cake is baking right now, so I'll see how it goes.
I was just going to flip the bottom, pour the white chocolate, set, then pipe the dots...hmm might have to think about it now looking at that site. thanks
I've made them before, both ways (bake separate layers and bake in one pan) I just wanted nice clean layers but because of the shape it wasn't going to be possible. It will still be rainbowish though
I searched online about cooking from frozen and it was split 50/50 so figured I better not chance it, thats a lot of cake to through out if it went wrong!
