Instructions:
1. Use one cake mix to make the red cake
batter. (You'll probably need the whole
bottle of red food dye to get the right
color.) This should yield two red cakes.
Split the other cake mix in half and mix
one half normally (without food dye) and
the other half with blue food dye.
2. Bake the cakes
3. Slice both red cakes horizontally through
the middle to create four red layers.
4. Slice the white cake in half just like the
red cake.
• One bottle of red food dye and one bottle
of blue food dye.
• 8" or 9" cake pans, depending on how
much cake you're going to get out of the
cake mix you bought.
• A 4" cookie tin top (or anything that can
cut an even 4" circle out of cake).
5. Place a small dollop of frosting on the
platform where you're going to put the
cake so the cake doesn't move around
while you're assembling it. Once you've
done that, add one of the red layers.
6. Frost the red layer, being sure to remove
any stray crumbs beforehand.
