Photo of the Day: 28-Layer Rainbow Cake

[Photograph: Darius A Monsef IV]
We've seen rainbow cakes before, but not one quite like this epic 28-layer cake. Darius says his mom and girlfriend made it for him for his 28th birthday. That's love.

That's a pretty cool cake.
I also misread the thread title, and wondered why it took 28 days to make a cake...

All I can see is more food coloring than I would ever use. That's a lot of patience and time right there.

Wow! Gorgeous!
@gingercookie -- probably didn't take her 28 days to bake the cake, but close enough...

To me, this is nothing short of stunning. I love it. It must have been a real labour of love.

Really lovely. I wonder how many food colorings/dyes they used. And how big the layer is? looks almost like a little tart pan?

wow! that's magical. I've also wanted to make a rainbow cake, but this goes beyond rainbow...it's more of a paint palette.

wow..if I got that cake, I would be in heaven. So much time and effort and love into making that thing.

if it hasn't been said often enough...its beautiful!
the process of making the correct colours and their hues must have been a fun project.
I don't like cake much,
but I'm tempted by this one :)

It's like cake on acid!
Hm. But did it taste any good? Did it taste like rainbows and sunshine?
