Minions/ Despicable Me Theme Rainbow Birthday Cake 小黄人彩虹生日蛋糕制作过程

Happy 8th Birthday to my baby Louis!

This year, the boy didn't want to have birthday party with friends, he wanted a quiet and simple celebration at home. I have made 2 birthday cakes for him, one for Lunar birthday and one on the actual day.


This was the Minions Birthday Swiss Roll that I made for his Lunar birthday.

The cake on the actual day, it's definitely a complicated and more time consuming compared to the swiss roll. He wished to have a Minions theme rainbow birthday cake.

Rainbow cake is time consuming because each layer is one cake. Theoretically I have to bake 7 cakes to achieve the 7 rainbow colours. However, accident always happened when I am short of time. Yes, I accidentally broke 3 cakes and no, I'm not going to tell you the details, so don't ask. :D 

To achieve the beautiful 7 colours rainbow cake, I have baked 10 cakes using my limited cake tin and limited oven space. I have baked 4 rounds to complete the baking.

In the past, I only make fondant cake for his birthday. This year, I used fresh cream frosting and fondant figurines. Does it looks plain to you? Well actually, there's no need much exterior decoration on a rainbow cake because the surprise is inside the cake. 

I want it to be simple and nice, just 3 Minions with a Felonious Gru shadow, a plain white frosting rainbow cake with the birthday boy's name on top. I am glad that it turned out fabulously beautiful...
