Rapunzel Cake Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 box vanilla cake mix (or your favorite vanilla cake recipe)
  • Food coloring (yellow and brown)
  • Frosting (homemade or store-bought)
  • Decorations (such as edible flowers and candy)

Instructions:

  1. Bake the cake according to the instructions on the box (or recipe). Divide the batter evenly among three 8-inch round cake pans.
  2. Once the cakes are baked and cooled, use a sharp knife to level off the tops to create a flat surface.
  3. Place the first layer of cake on a cake stand or serving plate. Spread a layer of frosting on top.
  4. Add the second layer of cake on top of the frosting and add another layer of frosting.
  5. Place the third layer of cake on top and frost the cake with a thin layer of frosting (this is the crumb coat). Place the cake in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour to firm up the crumb coat.
  6. While the cake is chilling, divide the remaining frosting into two bowls. Add a few drops of yellow food coloring to one bowl and mix until the frosting is pale. Add a few drops of brown food coloring to the other bowl and mix until the frosting is light brown.
  7. Once the cake has chilled, please remove it from the refrigerator and finish frosting the cake with the pale yellow frosting. Use a spatula to create texture on the frosting to resemble Rapunzel’s long, flowing hair.
  8. Use the light brown frosting to pipe on details such as Rapunzel’s eyebrows, nose, and mouth.
  9. Decorate the cake with edible flowers and candy to complete the Rapunzel theme.
  10. Serve and enjoy!
