I made this amazingly, easy cake for a staff meeting and not only is gorgeous on the stand, but it is yummy in the tummy! For those of you whose mouths were watering, the recipe is so simple and very fast to make. I mixed up the cake batter and baked it one day, and then the next day completed the recipe. It definitely got me in the festive mood with the bright colors. It is great for any special event you may have! Enjoy!
