To make the royal icing thinner, keep adding water to the icing until the icing doesn&#8217;t leave a ribbon on top of itself when you drip some onto itself. \u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>Candy canes- it took me an hour running around my town trying to find every colour of candy cane that could possibly be found. \u00a0Tough job, I know. \u00a0But, since the Christmas season is in full swing, it was super busy everywhere I went. \u00a0Well, as busy as a town with 20 000 people can ever be. \u00a0I had the most luck at the local Dollar stores. \u00a0Who would have thought? \u00a0I found the giant and mini rainbow candy canes there, the solid coloured ones at the grocery stores, and the mish mashed striped ones at WalMart, etc.\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/DSC_0319site.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-7351\" title=\"Rainbow Drip Candy Cane Cake\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/DSC_0319site.jpg\" alt=\"Rainbow Drip Candy Cane Cake\" width=\"599\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/DSC_0319site.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/DSC_0319site-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 599px) 100vw, 599px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Rainbow Drip Candy Cane Cake<\/strong><\/span> <br \/>Ingredients:<\/div>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\" https:\/\/youtu.be\/XaNELscDtms\" target=\"_blank\">Vanilla Cake batter<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/RnxHBne-uVo\" target=\"_blank\">Royal Icing<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/rjqOTM5icOE\" target=\"_blank\">Vanilla Buttercream <\/a><\/li>\n<li>Candy canes, and candy sticks of all sizes, shapes and colours<\/li>\n<li>Clear and light blue rock candy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Procedure:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<ol>\n<li>Preheat oven to 350F.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Prepare cake batter and divide equally into 7 different bowls.\u00a0 Colour the batter red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and white.\u00a0 Fill piping bags with cake batter.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Grease two 8&#8243; cake pans, and squeeze cake batter from piping bags randomly into the cake pans in equal quantities.<\/li>\n<li>Tap pan gently on counter to eliminate any air bubbles.\u00a0 Place in preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.\u00a0 Set on a cooling rack to cool completely before icing.<\/li>\n<li>Level and stack cake layers and cover cake in buttercream.<\/li>\n<li>Prepare royal icing as according to recipe and colour 7 equal portions in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and leave one amount white.\u00a0 Starting in the center, squeeze royal icing out over the top of the cake in all of the colours until it meets the edges and starts to drip over the edges of the cake. Be careful not to put too much on the top of the cake as that will cause a big mess and not a &#8220;drip&#8221; look.<\/li>\n<li>Place rock candy along the edge of the cake while the icing is still soft.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Working quickly before icing hardens, place largest candy canes and candy sticks closest to the center of the cake, and work outwards towards the edge with the smaller ones.\u00a0 Place as many candy canes and sticks on the cake that can fit.<\/li>\n<li>Cake is best served the same day.\u00a0 Keep any unused portions in a sealed container in the fridge.\u00a0 It is best consumed within 2-3 days.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/DSC_0256site2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone
