You won’t believe how easy it is to transform a 9×13 sheet cake into this delightful Rainbow Unicorn Cake with a colorful candy clay (modeling chocolate) mane and tail. When you cut into the cake you’ll reveal a swirl of rainbow coloring hiding inside.
Unicorn Cake
Did you, your mom, or grandmother ever bake a birthday cake from the Baker’s Coconut Cut-Up Cake recipe booklet? Mine did! Back in the 1960’s and early 70’s those cakes were all the rage. You simply baked one 9X13 sheet cake or 2 square or round cakes then cut them into simple shapes before assembling them to look like a lion, butterfly, duck, giraffe, dog, etc.
I am so excited to share this idea to make a simple Rainbow Unicorn Cake.
Cut-apart cakes are easy to frost and decorate and looked so cute. These simple cakes were popular years before shaped cake pans were available and the designs were easy enough for any home cook to recreate.
