Those colors!

the unicorn trend ever die? We hope not. It might sound dumb, but we've
become suckers for the color explosions that are unicorn foods (check
out our cheesecake).
And no, I'm not some food coloring junkie (although sometimes it seems
like I might be). Rather, at this dreary, beginning-of-spring moment, a
little color never hurt nobody. I hate the month of March more than
most, and this pink-teal-purple cake made my day a little better.
I'll admit we've taken the Unicorn trend to some extremes — unicorn toast, really? — I can't help it! It's eye candy in the most amazing way. This poke cake
is no exception. This an example of a recipe I dreamed up because I
liked the title and then immediately thought "But wait, what the hell is
it?!" After much discussion, I settled on making a boxed vanilla cake
batter and dying it a few different colors: pink, green, and purple.
Then I almost swirled them, but instead, I layered them on top of each
other (this is SO easy!).

The only frosting that seemed to complete this
look was pink. Princess pink, really. It's a marshmallow frosting that's
perfectly fluffy and (believe it or not) just-enough sweet. Then I
decorated the s*it out of it with sprinkles — because what's a unicorn
recipe without sprinkles?! Not real ;)
