Rainbow Cake
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Since the sponge cake turns out quite soft, the cake can be eaten right away. However, if you have time, you can leave it for a few hours so the sponge soaks up the cream. Decorate the cake with chocolate chips, nuts, fruits, or any sprinkles. The cream can also be colored to make the cake surface more vibrant. Serve chilled.

Step 1
First, prepare the biscuit dough. To do this, separate the egg whites from the yolks and beat the whites into a thick foam with a pinch of salt. Add butter, flour, and a little vanilla to the yolks to taste. Then add the egg whites to the dough and gently mix in with a fork or blender at low speed.

Step 2
Now, depending on the number of food coloring shades, divide the dough accordingly. I have 6 colors, so I divide the dough into 6 equal portions and color each according to the instructions on the coloring packaging. Adjust the intensity of the dough coloring to your preference.

Step 3
Now you need to bake all the cake layers. To do this, take a not too wide pan. A diameter of about 20 centimeters is suitable. Preheat the oven to 190 degrees and bake each layer for about 15-20 minutes.

Step 4
While the cake layers are baking, prepare the cream. Pour hot water (not boiling) over the gelatin. Beat the cream with powdered sugar until fluffy. Mix the dissolved gelatin with the whipped cream, add brandy — the cream is ready.

Step 5
Once the cake layers have completely cooled, you can assemble the cake. Place the first layer onto the serving dish you'll use for the cake, then layer the remaining cakes one by one, spreading cream between each layer. Optionally, reserve some cream to frost the sides of the cake.
