Rainbow cakes are the newest pie maker creation to trend amongst keen home cooks – and by all accounts they’re quick and easy to make.

Kmart mum Chloe Terzic made a Monster High-themed rainbow cake for her daughter’s birthday in the family-sized pie maker, causing a stir on social media.

Chloe told Better Homes and Gardens that she used two Woolworths Vanilla Cake mixes ($1.85 each) to make the multi-layered cake, following the instructions on the packet.

She then used one measuring cup to separate the cake mix into six bowls, before adding food colour gel to each individual bowl.

She used spray oil in the pie maker before cooking each layer for five minutes, then allowing all six layers to cool.
