I made a rainbow cake using a simple version of this technique. It was very easy and turned out great.

This is a fabulous idea and I can't wait to try it! Has anyone done this using a box mix, either plain or doctored? I'm thinking that making up one vanilla cake mix and one of chocolate, you could use the same technique for putting the batter in the pan(s) and get the effect.

Oh that's easy! Just get yellow cake batter and chocolate cake batter, and fill the bottom with a thin layer of yellow, then put "blops" of chocolate, cover with yellow, more chocolate blops in different places, etc. etc. until the pan is full. Just don't marble! icon_biggrin.gif

I used a box mix for my rainbow cake. Just make the colors you want in equal amounts and pour in the first batter, pour the second one on top of that, etc.

i made a zebra cake in march for my daughter. i added cocoa powder to half of my cake batter and drop the batter by 1/4 cupfuls into the pan, alternating colors, and kind of "popping" the bottom of the pan after each addition to keep it spreading out evenly. it turned out so cool! kind of a variation on marble cake. hth!
