Elsa - 🌈 Neon Rainbow Layer Cake 🌈 Ingredients For the Cake (6 Layers, Rainbow Colors) 3 œ cups all-purpose flour 2 œ tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda œ tsp salt 1 œ cups unsalted butter (softened) 2 œ cups sugar 6 large egg whites 1 tbsp vanilla extract 2 cups buttermilk (room temp) Gel food colors (neon shades): purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, pink/red For the Buttercream Frosting 2 cups unsalted butter (room temp) 6 cups powdered sugar œ cup heavy cream 2 tsp vanilla extract Pinch of salt Gel food colors: neon purple, neon orange, neon yellow, neon green, neon pink Decorations Rainbow candy sprinkles or mini chocolate candy drops (bright colors) Instructions 1. Prepare Cake Batter Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line six 8-inch round cake pans (or bake in batches).  Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in one bowl.  In another bowl, beat butter + sugar until fluffy.  Add egg whites gradually, then vanilla.  Alternate adding dry ingredients and buttermilk until smooth.  2. Color the Layers  Divide batter evenly into 6 bowls.  Add gel colors: Purple, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, Red/Pink. Use neon gel food coloring (liquid won’t give this effect).  Pour each colored batter into its own pan.  3. Bake  Bake each layer for 18–22 minutes (until a toothpick comes out clean).  Let cool completely before stacking.  4. Make Neon Buttercream  Beat butter until creamy.  Gradually add powdered sugar, salt, and vanilla.  Add heavy cream until fluffy.  Divide into bowls, tint each with neon gel colors (purple, orange, pink, yellow, etc.).  5. Assemble the Cake  Place purple layer at bottom, then blue, green, yellow, orange, red/pink.  Spread a thin layer of plain or tinted frosting between each layer.  Cover the cake in a smooth layer of neon purple buttercream (like in your photo).  6. Decorate  Pipe neon swirls on top using multiple colors in the same piping bag (striping effect).  Drizzle or streak orange and purple buttercream on sides for that psychedelic look.  Add rainbow candy sprinkles or chocolate drops. | Facebook
