Make The Cake

Cup of Yum
1. Preheat your oven to 350 F / 180C / gas mark 4 and prepare three 8 inch cake pans by spraying them with non-stick spray an set them aside.
2. Melt 1 cup of the butter and let cool slightly.
3. Then combine the cake mix, cooled melted butter, 8 egg whites, milk and lemon juice in a large mixing bowl.
4. Divide the cake batter equally between the 3 mixing bowls and then add pink food coloring to one bowl, yellow to another and blue to the last one.
5. Transfer each color batter into a different prepared pan, and gently tap each pan to remove any air bubbles and to even out the batter.
6. Bake the cakes for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick or skewer inserted in the middle of each cake comes out clean with no liquid cake batter stuck to it. Cake crumbs on the toothpick and skewer are ok.
7. Allow the cakes to cool slightly and then transfer the cakes to a wire rack to allow them to cool completely.

Make The Frosting

1. Once the cakes are completely cooled, then make the frosting.
2. Combine the softened butter, powdered sugar, 6 tablespoons milk, yellow food coloring and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice in a large mixing bowl. Mix until well combined and smooth.

Decorate The Cake

1. Add the first cake layer on your cake plate and top with a good amount of the frosting and spread this out.
2. Top with the second cake layer and spread out more frosting and then add on the final cake layer and top with more frosting.
3. Use an offset spatula or the back of a spoon to smooth the frosting over the top of the cake and then add more to the sides and frost the cake completely.
4. Use a piping bag or ziploc bag with the corner cut off to pipe around the edges.
5. Decorate your cake with all the Easter goodies that you want.
6. Let the frosted cake chill for a bit and then slice and serve!
