As impressive as it is to serve someone a sandwich or toast made with Rainbow Bread, I love the vividness of the colors in this psychedelic cake even more. I guess you just dump as much food coloring as possible into cake batter and gently swirl it around so it all won’t blend together? Without question, I am soon going to tackle this experiment!
Oh this cake is simply gorgeous! I remember wearing tie-dyed t-shirts that looked like this back in the late 1960’s. Remember what the doormouse said – “Feed Your Head!”
My edumacated guess is that one would make separate batches of the colors and pour them in on top of each other because there seem to be entire “bodies” of certain colors. I would think that swirling food color would be more …swirly (to use the scientific term)
I wish I was there in person to watch the test-kitchen creation from you two ladies! :-) One of my friends Googled and found some YouTube tutorials on how to make one. Now all you hafta do is one-up those for a spectacular cake, worthy of Doug Henning (or something like that)

I TOTALLY want to make this! It’s way, way, way better than the Rainbow Bread I bought a couple of weeks ago. You can see stunning shots of that in these two posts of mine:

Yes, the feeding of the head is the most important meal!

I also want to make clown meat.
Way to go Razzzie!

I think we should experiment on a psychedellic “swirling” cake together.
