Ingredients

  • 1 box white cake mix
  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 box Jello in each color of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple)

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C).
  2. Grease and flour six 9-inch cake pans.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, egg whites, water, and vegetable oil. Mix well until it is smooth.
  4. Divide the mixture into six smaller bowls, and mix each one with a different color of Jello. Mix well to ensure that the color is evenly distributed.
  5. Pour each colored mixture into the prepared pans, one color per pan, and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing them from the pans and letting them cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. In a saucepan, mix the boiling water with each box of Jello until it dissolves.
  8. Add the cold water and stir well.
  9. Once the cakes have cooled, stack them on a cake stand or plate in rainbow order, putting whipped cream between each layer if desired.
  10. Pour the Jello mixture over the cake, making sure it covers the entire cake. You can use a spoon to help spread it evenly.
  11. Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours before serving.

Notes

  • If you prefer, you can use homemade cake batter instead of a mix.
  • Be sure to let the cake cool completely before adding the Jello mixture, or it will melt and create a messy cake.
  • You can use any flavor of Jello that you like, but using the colors of the rainbow will create the most impressive effect.
