and the rainbow cake idea wasn’t originally mine as i’m sure most of you know. it’s made its way around the web cause it’s AMAZING. mine turned out nothing close to as cool as the original but it was fun nevertheless. next time (like there’ll be one)? i need more icing between the layers. but, in an attempt for less sugar-invasion, i didn’t use much. oh well. after a few slices were dealt, i threw the rest of it away too. something that colorful cannot be good for you. but it was fun to serve and surprise lindsey with.
Brooke says

WHAT?! The cake looks AMAZING. Sweet photos & sweet decor. Happy Birthday, Lindsey!
{lovely little things} says
Great job on the cake, looks like a fun birthday for her! Love the rainbow candles too, nice touch!
Rita says
Ummm…did you really throw the rest away? And did Lindsey cry? That is hilarious. Also, I think yours is prettier than the original…I like it without as much frosting. Way to go, momma!
Jenni Austria Germany says
all this amish talk is really cracking me up.
the cinnamon post says
Lindsey is clearly my kindred spirit. I made that same cake for my nine year old last summer and she has asked for it again this year. I love the surprise of it but yes, it is rather disgusting to eat.
bridget says
you should all know that i did indeed throw it away but lindsey didn't mind. it wasn't accompanied by tears and begging.
Megan says
oh gosh..the pilgrim stuff seriously makes me crack up. Hilarious. Well done mom!
kels says
please tell Lindsey that, growing up, i wanted to be amish too!! i still may secretly dream of that wonderful, simple life.
happy birthday to her!! what a great party with great memories. you go, mama!
Tucker says
lindsey is the cooooolest. i hope i get a girl just like her. with amish aspirations, and all.
lady lee says
You're such a good Mommy! That rainbow cake is awesome. I love that she wants to be a pioneer 🙂
Poo says
The cake looks yummy!! Once again, happy birthday Lindsey! 🙂
Elizabeth {e tells tales} says
Yay for girls…I thought about that the other day. How you and L will be the only two, even with baby on the way. There's always next time! 🙂
Miss L says
What a beautiful birthday girl, birthday cake, and birthday post! 🙂 I hope she enjoyed her day!

This post is like a rainbow – not just the cake, obvi, but all of it. I love it! Also, I feel like this cake should win an award for "most blogged about dessert craze" – it deserves it.
Rachael says
Awesome cake!! Good job! I would have no idea how to get each layer a different color! Unless you had to cook each layer separate then put it all together…Either way, a great cake.
I'm glad your daughter had a great birthday!! She seems really sweet.
Brandi says
Oh I'd love to see pics of Lindsey churning butter! How cute is she?! LOL!
My analytical mind is just too much sometimes because instead of initially thinking what a cute cake my first thought was "how was that made. That couldn't have been easy" Lol!
Alex says
Love how colorful the party was! The cake looks great, too. I keep giggling about how she has Amish aspirations!
Courtney Baker says
The cake looks fabulous Bridg!! And so does your kitchen, might I add. Oh, and Lindsey too. Happy Birthday Lindsey 🙂
Raven says
So I totally thought you made that cake, but it's presence is enough, I'm sure! The decorations and everything looked great! Such a cool mom, you 🙂
Tatiana says
I just stumbled on your blog, and love it! Happy birthday to your beautiful girly! All the decorations are adorable!
Jenni @ Story of My Life says
I totally wanted to be a pilgrim and churn my own butter, too. I'm fairly sure that's normal.
Awesome pics. I want that cake in my mouth.
Roxanne says
I once churned butter at an American Girl event and it was really hard, but so tasty! So glad Lindsey enjoyed her celebration!
Brittany H. says
Woo hoo! I love rainbow cakes! (Yours turned out beautiful). Happy birthday to your little one!

I bet that took more than a few hours huh? I think the pictures alone make it worth it…so lovely to look at (and I bet it tasted yummy too)! I love the picture of the stacked bowls!
Alena says
Awww…I hope she had a wonderful birthday. Looked like a very festive celebration and your cake looks AHMAZING. Wish I had the urge to try something that complicated!
Morgan and Lua says
Happy Birthday Lindsey!! (a little late)
That cake is amazing. I bet she loved it and it tasted delicious. You always bake the best things. When our friendships becomes an in real life one(and post pregnancy) can we have baking Sundays where we bake, watch movies, and drink wine all day?
My birthday is April 21st, ehem ehem.
Bron says
Aww, great cake and loving the paperchains too.
Happy 9th Birthday Lindsey!
I appreciate the butter thing. Gotta love kids and their randomness 🙂
SarahAnn says
That cake is incredible–bravo!
So glad that Morgan "introduced" us via Twitter today. It's always nice to commiserate over pregnancy brain. 🙂
e.day says
many things come to mind when i read this post. but most importantly, i used to (still want) to live like a pioneer. and it completely comes from little house on the prairie. sit back and read how that lady describes food for a solid five pages and you will want nothing more than to put on your bonnet and churn some butter for the rest of your days.
lindsey is one smart cookie.
Madison says
RAINBOW CAKE IS MY FAVORITE THING IN THE WORLD. And you say it's been "Making it's way around the web," but I literally grew up with it, and every bday cake I've ever had has been rainbow!
I'm a newbie, and your blog is one of my favorites, so check me out!!!

Happy Birthday to Lindsay. It looks like a blast and that cake is amazing. What a great mom you are.
worldinapapercup says
The rainbow cake is more work (and alot of messy bowls) but so worth it! Yours turned out so cute!
P.S. I think you must be the most adorable pregnant lady ever! Love your blog:)
Sarah says
What a gorgeous cake and even more gorgeous note! Happy birthday Lindsey! Hope the whole family had a wonderful day! 😀
