Ingredients:

Directions:
Directions:
Step One -Pre-heat the oven as indicated by your cake mix. Grease the sides of a 8" or 9" round pan, and line the bottom with parchment paper.

Step 2 - Make the cake mix as indicated on the box.

Step 3-Once the batter is mixed, separate into 6 bowls, about 1 1/2 cup of batter per bowl. Add food color gel to each of the bowls to get your desired colors.(red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple) Unlike food coloring, you don't need to use a ton of the food gels to color the batter.

Step 4-Using a measuring cup, add the colored batter to each of the pans. I measured 3/4 cup of each of the colors putting it on top of the other. In one pan I placed the colors in a red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple order, and then I did the opposite in the other pan (purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red; placing one color on top of the other in concentric circles.)

Step 5- Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes. Make sure the knife comes out clean. One of my cakes needed an additional 4 minutes.

Step 6 - Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then remove from pans and con't
