Taste the Rainbow - a photo on Flickriver

Taste the Rainbow

This is the cake my wife made for my daughters birthday.
My wife made two cakes a chocolate one for her birthday party with her friends and this one for home with just us.
As my daughter has coeliac disease both cakes were gluten free.
This cake was made up of six diffferent sponge layers with each one coloured different.
Inbetween the layers was jam and butter cream :)
You couldn't see the colours until the cake was cut as it was covered with a layer of marzipan and then white icing.
My daughter loves animals so my wife made paw prints around the edge of the cake and a cat sitting on the top.
This cake was ginormous and very very tasty you wouldn't believe it was gluten free.

I placed down a sheet of white poster paper onto the floor then placed the plate and cake onto the paper.
My camera was on my tripod and my tripod has a fancy feature which means you can extend the column horizontly and face the camera downwards, this placed the camera right above the plate.
To the left and right side of the plate I had a Jessops 360 AFD on stands and with see through white umbrellas pointing down towards the cake
