Juan's Rainbow

The story is about Juan, a French lady who awaits the return of her love who is fighting in the Second World War, far away from home. On the first day of her wait she bakes a strawberry cake for him. However he does not return that day. On the second day she bakes a pistachio cake, only to be disappointed again. She joined the cakes together with some whipped cream. Her wait continued into the third day when she made an orange cake. He still did not come. She went to bed disappointed that night. Next morning her love arrived bearing a gift of good chocolates for his lady. She combined all the cakes she baked with cream. She then melted the chocolate and poured it over the cake, and then served it to her loved one. They ate it together in celebration of his return and their never ending love.No proof about the authenticity of this tale has been found. But this is one darn good cake.

Steps

120 mins
  1. 1

    Here's the recipe I used: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/simple-white-cake/ for the simple cakes. I made changes to the quantities of this recipe as this is a layered cake.

  2. 2

    Along with the recipe in step 1, I added red food colouring and sun dried strawberries for the strawberry cake. For the pistachio cake, I added green food colouring and crushed pistachios. For the orange layer, I used orange food colouring and dried orange peels.

  3. 3

    Bake all 3 cakes and leave to cool.

  4. 4

    Layer them one on top of another and pour melted chocolate over it.

  5. 5

    Leave to cool and serve chilled.

  6. 6

    Notes:I dried the strawberries and the orange peels for 3 days in the sun. This intensifies the flavour and kicks ass when bitten into.
