I searched the Internet for inspo for my 6 year old’s birthday and there wasn’t much available! So here is my contribution if you’re also planning a party or event with this theme!

I enjoy making my kids’ cakes every year, and this year my 6 year old asked for a rainbow cake . I knew that icing an actual rainbow would be a high level effort and difficulty (especially with whipped cream since kids don’t eat sugar so traditional buttercream or fondant isn’t an option!)

So I came up with the idea of doing a cloud cake, and used toppers to bring across the rainbows and more colour. Easy, cute and perfect to meet all her rainbow requirements!

How I made the cake:

1. I baked the cake (low sugar version thats why it doesn’t rise so high) in a rectangle pan, and using a template from baking paper, I cut out a cloud shape.
2. I covered the cake in unsweetened cream, using back of a spoon to make a neat pattern for the fluffy clouds.
3. I made the cloud’s eyes and smile from blue paper, with a backing of cut out cardboard from a box so it does not get soaked into the cake.
4. I placed rainbow and unicorn toppers I bought online from Trendyol, sprinkled glitter over and the cake is ready!

The rest of the theme came together with rainbow/cloud plates and serviettes.

We took the cake to school, and all the kids enjoyed it so much (most came back for seconds!) so overall it was a success Alhamdulillah!

Did you ever make a cloud rainbow themed party? What elements did you include?
