So 2 days ago I attempted to make a tie dye cake with my kids. They had begged and begged, and truthfully I put it off. It seem like such a tedious cake to make. Finally I broke down and made it!
As you can see in this pic my purple, cwell if you can call it that) came out horrible! I guess my drops were off. I had to mix all the colors using 3 colors, red,blue, and yellow. Hey it's my first try at this! I divided six bowls of batter, each was 1/4 cup and 2 taps.
The pouring was easy I went in a sequence. Big key to this was don't touch the batter! Let it spread by its self! I started with red, then went to orange, yellow, green, blue, and finally purple. After all of it was poured I jiggled the pan a little to even it out. Looked pretty huh!
I let my kids frost it and add sprinkles. They went with an ocean theme. Bright blue with, fish sprinkles. Summer-ish right?! " just keep swimming". Ha had to throw that in!
And here it is! Not too shabby if I do say so myself.
If you want to make your own, just grab a white cake mix, food coloring, and frosting at your grocery store. Then just follow the direction s on mixing the batter. Then you can just use my steps to turn it into a tie dye cake. I'm pretty sure the food coloring will have directions on the back for a specific color.
