Now divide the batter into 5 or 6 equal parts.

Add one color in each bowl.if you don't have all the colors you can mix 2 colors to make a different color.Here are few combinations. Red ,Blue,Yellow are primary colors. Orange = (Red + yellow).Purple = (Red + Blue).Green = (Blue + Yellow).

what we have done with this cake is the flower design using FONDANT. Though it was my first attempt of working with fondant, i soon realized this it is very easy and as simple as playing with play dough.
