Rainbow Dessert Recipes
Beautiful layered kid-friendly recipes that will impress your guests!
- Rainbow Poptarts
- These poptarts are filled with a fresh, rainbow fruit filling, baked until golden brown, then topped with a drizzle of sweet, rainbow icing.
- Rainbow Popsicles
- Rainbow popsicles are pretty easy to make, but they take time since each layer needs to freeze before you add the next one. This basic recipe is also a great jumping off point for your own custom-color and flavor combinations.
- Rainbow Rice Krispy Treats
- I combined two different recipes that I found online for these delicious little treats - one was for rainbow rice krispies and the other was for rosemary rice krispies. I wanted to try both, but I didn't feel like buying double the ingredients. Since the food coloring doesn't really alter the taste at all.I thought making them together would be okay.
- Rainbow Rice Krispy Treats
- I'd seen other versions of rainbow rice krispies squares, but all the different colours were usually mixed together. I wanted to do something different, by creating super thin layers of each colour stuck on top of each other. And the best part, hiding it under a layer of regular old plain rice krispies so if you looked from the top (see above photo), you'd be none the wiser.
- Rainbow Cake In A Jar
- In this simple recipe, a basic white cake is turned into a slew of bright colors, baked to perfection, then topped with a creamy white frosting.
- Sparkly Rainbow Marshmallow Kabobs
- These came about mostly my accident. I was trying something else that didn't work and ended up with these rays of sunshine.

- (Double) Rainbow Malt Cake
- I think this may be my favourite cake of all time. I will use any excuse to whip up a fun cake, and a friend leaving my work was definitely a very good reason.

Layered Rainbow Jello Recipes
An impressive display of wiggly, jiggly fun!
- Layered Rainbow Jello Recipe
- This recipe makes a really awesome layered jello dessert. Each color is divided by a white layer made with sweetened condensed milk.
- Jell-Oh! - Rainbow Jello Recipe
- Part kitsch and part chemistry, it is the ultimate food you're allowed to play with. And, holy moly, people are doing some amazing stuff with gelatin. Which brings us to rainbow Jell-O. Let's face it, you don't need to be CIA (no, the other one) trained to make Jell-O; but there are a couple of ways to go about making rainbow gelatin. Because Jell-O is semi-transparent, you could just layer red, green and blue gelatin to make a rainbow (science!). I wanted each color to be really distinct (also, bright and vivid), so I chose to use six different colors/flavors and add opaque layers.
- Rainbow Jello Shots
- We are happy to present our nod to sunny days, good times and the old school Jell-o shot, Rainbow Jello Shooter. I love the "rainbow" gelatin technique - borrowed from the popular recipe for kids' finger gelatin.
- Rainbow Cherry Jigglers
- When serving jelly shots at mixed gatherings, I like to also provide some kid-friendly non-alcoholic options. Often its simply multicolored layered jigglers, or a juice-based gelatin molded into a fun shape. I recently ran across these adorable Roland brand rainbow-hued, flavored maraschino cherries and couldn't wait to work them into our bag of party tricks!

- Skittles Vodka Tutorial
- Infusing vodka with Skittles is a very popular trend right now. There are a couple of different ways to do it. My way involves separating all the Skittles into their separate flavors and making five different bottles of Skittles vodka.
- The Double Rainbow Cocktail
- Make rainbow ice by adding food coloring to an ice cube tray, filling with water and freezing.
