Easy Rainbow Bundt Cake Recipe for Easter day 2024:- After the month of December had come to a close, my husband and I were having a conversation about the things that we want out of life. The way our lives have been going has left me with the impression that we have been stuck in a rut. As a result, we came to the conclusion that the year 2016 should be dedicated to pursuing our interests and encouraging our children to pursue their own goals. Due to the fact that travel is one of our most significant interests, we compiled a list of destinations and activities that we would like to experience during the year 2016.
We went on a trip to Tennessee around the time of Christmas, and while we were there, we were on standby. This was a really foolish thing to do during the holiday season. We were unable to board a flight that would take us back to our own country. In any case, my youngest son’s birthday is close to the first of January, and he was extremely worried that we wouldn’t be able to make it back in time for his celebration.
To make a long story short, we arrived home the night before his birthday, but I had not been able to go shopping for gifts or make any preparations for it because I had been confined to a hotel room for the whole week leading up to it.
Easy Rainbow Bundt Cake Recipe for Easter day 2024
To make him feel loved and appreciated, I called our family the night before his birthday (we have a large extended family) and invited them all over the following day for dinner and a party to celebrate his birthday. This was done in order to help him feel loved and appreciated. The problem was that I needed to unload my belongings, tidy my house, go shopping for presents, and prepare this supper. Moreover, I completely forgot about the cake the whole time.
It was almost one hour before the party when he inquired about the type of cake that he would be receiving. What the heck!!! It’s the cake! I can’t believe I forgot about the cake like that. I mean, for goodness sake, he was turning seven years old. At their parties, children aged seven absolutely require cake. I then informed him that he was free to choose whatever he desired. In any case, he had been perusing a book about cakes when he came across a rainbow cake. That is exactly what he desired to happen.

Using a butter knife, gently loosen the edges of the cake from the pan, and turn over onto a wire rack.
-
Allow to cook completely.

While cake is cooling, make raspberry glaze by mixing ingredients together with a hand mixer. Add additional milk to glaze if it is not runny enough. You want it to be thick enough that it holds shape, but runny enough that it will slowly drip off a spoon.
-
When cake is cooled, spoon it over the top of the cake. It should hold the “drip” shape, and get a little hard. Add sprinkles if desired!
