I went a little overboard creating a fun confetti-ish cake for a student teacher and deemed the result 'Clown Vomit Cake.' Despite its nickname, it's a popular request now with my colleagues! Frost with your favorite frosting and top with colored sugar.

Ingredients:


  • 3 egg whites
  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix
  • 1 1/3 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • red paste food coloring
  • orange paste food coloring
  • yellow paste food coloring
  • green paste food coloring
  • blue paste food coloring
  • purple paste food coloring

Directions:


  • 1   Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.
  • 2   Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until frothy, about 1 minute. Add the cake mix, water, and canola oil; continue beating for 2 minutes on medium speed.
  • 3   Divide the cake batter into six separate bowls. Use a toothpick to scoop a dab of food coloring into one bowl of batter and stir; add more food coloring, if necessary, to reach the desired shade. Repeat with the remaining colors and bowls of batter.
  • 4   Scoop spoonfuls of batter into the prepared pans, alternating the colors. Use a toothpick to gently swirl the colors for a marbled effect.
  • 5   Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes clean, about 30-35 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
