Rainbow Cake!

I made a rainbow cake for my brother for his birthday and it turned out pretty darn cute!
 
 
I thought you might want to make one for yourself (or someone you love) so here are the instructions:
 
Buy one white cake mix and prepare batter as instructed.  Once mixed, divide batter evenly into 6 bowls or cups.  Using food coloring, add one color per bowl and mix.
 
To make orange, mix 2 drops red and 2 drops yellow
To make green, mix 2 drops blue and 2 drops  yellow
To make purple, mix 2 dropes of blue and 2 dropes of red
 
Butter and flour your cake pans and then pour the batter in one color at a time in the middle, on top of each other. The colors will thin out in the pan as the next one is poured on top of it, like this:

 
 
 
Bake as appropriate, let cool and then frost.
Enjoy!!!!

    It took me about 10 minutes to mix all the colors and the regular time it takes to make a cake from a box. :)
