Now that the baby is here, life is more hectic than ever. I certainly can't make mom food and kid food. So their treats are my treats and my treats are theirs. This rainbow cake is made according to package directions, exchanging egg whites for the eggs and applesauce for the oil. So, no fat. They say you eat with your eyes first. This is pretty enough to entice the kids (and me) even without the icing. You could sprinkle with powdered sugar.
I separated the batter into 3 containers and tinted each a different color. I poured one color in the bottom, and two colors over that at the same time. Use a butter knife or spatula to swirl the colors together.
I used two loaf pans for this cake mix. This helps portion control. I served one and froze the other for later. I am addicted to sweets, so when I bake something I eat it everyday until its gone. This way its gone in a day or two days instead of a week.
Here is my little helper at work :)
