This Rainbow Mousse Cake is seven gorgeous layers of cake and mousse in vibrant, fruity flavors. It’s a color and flavor explosion that is perfect for any party or celebration!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nothing says “party” more than an over-the-top rainbow cake. The layers! The sprinkles! The punch-you-in-the-eyeballs colors! To me, nothing feels more celebratory than a big ole dessert packed with layers of bright colors. Some of my favorite cakes I’ve made over the years have been rainbow themed<\/a> – like this surprise-inside Rainbow Cake<\/a>, this Gold-Topped Rainbow Cake<\/a>, or these super clever Buttercream Rainbows<\/a> (see them in action on these Pot of Gold Cupcakes<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today’s cake is another entry in the Rainbow Dessert Hall of Fame (and yes, I am the only member and the only inductee.) This version is a seven-layer beauty alternating layers of moist butter cake and rich mousse<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BEST part? Each colorful layer is a different fruit flavor, so this cake is bursting with bright, sweet-tart flavor. I thought about calling it a “Taste the Rainbow Mousse Cake,” but it doesn’t actually contain Skittles (plus I’m scared of getting on the wrong side of the powerful Big Candy industry) so I kept things simple. But if you love light and fluffy mousse cakes, and you enjoy playing with color and flavor, this cake’s for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
