3 packet cake mixes - split each cake into 2 so you have 6 bowls of mix and add colour to each one :)

And to get a more whiter cake for the color to take I used egg whites I used the vanilla cake mix Betty crocker! And also gel colors take better

My daughter just ask for one of these! B-day next week. They must be popular this year. Will be making my from scratch, 7 layers, heart shape. As requested. Why do I even ask each year!

agree with Julz about the colouring to use.the regular food liquid colouring in tiny bottles just don't cut it, the colour will come out dull :(

I want to make one too in january. I don't know how I'm going to go with making it though. $8.50 for each Gel color, makes a very expensive cake for a single use of each color. I don't otherwise color my cakes much at all.Maybe little miss could sell me her Gel colors one quarter used.
I will just make basic vanilla sponge. Easy and can make one layer at the time. Tested for the small size of my tin I just need the 1-1-1 ratio. Using gel colours and sugar flair powders for some of the brighter colours. There must be a pink one too as requested and will make sugar pink icing and fondant to decorate.

Looks greatbut think I would prefer to make one cake than all of the layers. I am going to giv it a go at xmas. only have the liquid colours thou so may not be as good as gel colours

I agree with the price of gel but if you read the recipe that i posted ( under notes) it says to add lots of colour so I am sure that the liquid works just as well just don't be shy when adding it the more the better as they say. I hope that helps
