I ended up using the Magnolia bakery vanilla cupcake recipe instead of a packet cake mix. It is quite thick and not at all runny so the cupcakes ended up more patchy/marbled than layered.
Utterly delicious cupcakes. It's a great recipe.
In a layered rainbow cake I expect to see purple, blue, green, yellow, orange and red.
ETA - I saw an awesome purple cake that was layers of different shades of purple - light on the bottom and dark on the top.
A cream cheese frosting with a bit of lemon zest would be yummy.
