It was topped with white chocolate frosting and white chocolate dipped strawberries......
Which were glittery (obvs).....
And inside were 5 layers of pink cake. The effect was really cool and I have to say it went down really well. The reaction when I cut it made several people come running to see what had happened and someone said they thought a man must have popped up from the middle of it!!
As you can imagine, there wasn't much left!!!

ETA I started with a normal batch of cake mix, then added a little pink colouring, then filled a tin, then added a little more pink, filled another tin...and so on. I used paste colour, the kind you use to colour fondant icing, the liquid stuff you get in the supermarket is too natural these days and doesn't give a strong enough colour!
ETA (again) Emma, I tried to leave you a comment but couldn't! I got the paste colour from eBay but you can get it in the cake shop in Kingswood although last time I went the colours were a little thin on the ground! Good luck with your attempt xx

Oooh, making one of these is on my 25 before 25 list - what did you use to do the different colours? It looks absolutely perfect!
Im attempting a rainbow version of this cake this week! Where did you get the paste stuff from?
*drool* .... sorry, did somebody say something..?
This is awesome. I have been eyeing these up for a while, but the pink is more grown up than the rainbow coloured. Well done! I don't know if I'd have the patience for it!
Wow. Have made one of these before but just couldn't get the colours vibrant enough.
**off to search for fondant colourings**
That's amazing! Think I might have to make one for Evie's birthday :D
