Right so this one's basically happiness in cake form. I'm not even joking. You put this in front of someone and their face just changes. Like instant mood boost. Doesn't matter if they're five or fifty-five. Something about those colours just makes people smile. This one started because of a little girl's birthday actually. Mum messaged me and said her daughter wanted a "rainbow cake with all the colours" for her party. I said yeah course I can do that. Spent ages getting the layers just right. Six different colours. Six different bowls. Six different times in and out of the oven. Took forever but honestly? When I cut into it and saw all those colours stacked up? Worth every second. The birthday girl cried apparently. Happy tears. Said it was the best cake ever. So yeah. It's been on the menu ever since. Here's what you're getting. Vanilla sponge. Same recipe throughout. Nice and light. Fluffy. Real vanilla because it's the base for everything. Then we split it and colour each layer. Red. Orange. Yellow. Green. Blue. Purple. In that order usually. Like a proper rainbow. Between the layers? Vanilla buttercream. Simple. Lets the colours do the talking. Then on top we go all out. Smooth vanilla buttercream all over. Then a rainbow of sprinkles. Sometimes little stars. Sometimes rainbow chips. Depends what I've got. Then a cloud of white buttercream at one end. Looks like the rainbow's coming out of a cloud. Kids absolutely love that bit. Who's buying these slices? Kids obviously. Goes without saying. Grown ups having a nostalgia moment. Birthday people who want something fun. Honestly? People having a rubbish day who need cheering up. Works every time. Party planners ordering for events. Me when I need a reminder that cake should be fun sometimes. If you're in Bromley pop in and grab one. They're usually about but weekends go fast. Kids parties everywhere. If you want to guarantee one maybe message ahead and I'll stick it behind the counter with your name on it. Or order online for collection or local delivery. Whatever works. One thing I should mention. The colours might blend a little bit where they meet. That's normal. It's not gonna be perfect sharp lines like a machine did it. It's made by hand. By me. So there might be a tiny bit of mixing where the layers touch. Adds to the charm honestly. Also if you want specific colours? Let me know. Some people want pastel rainbow. Some want bright and bold. Some want the colours in a different order. Just ask. I'll sort it. Right. That's the rainbow slice done. Happiness in cake form. Like I said.
