Why are there
so many
songs...

By Wild Orchid Baking Co

...about rainbows?

And what's on the other side?

Rainbows are visions,
but only illusions,

and rainbows have nothing
to hide.

So we've been told and some choose to believe it.

I know they're wrong, wait and see.

Made my day.

Love the 70s themed one! That makes me want to put on bellbottoms and get a Farrah do!

Love Kermit, too. Never understood the lyric "so many songs about rainbows" though. Other than "Somewhere over the Rainbow" and "Rainbow Connection" there really aren't that many songs about rainbows other than just mentioning them in passing.

Beautiful! Shouldn't this be "The Rainbow Confection"? ;D

Thanks for the earworm (and the tear in my eye.) *sniff*

<3 Kermie!!

As a kid, I was totally addicted to everything rainbow. This just gave me a burst of happy after a long day. So gorgeous!!! :D

[Sandy Bratzel]

How perfectly sweet and lovely was that alicorn and her foal??? Delightful work!

[Robin]

Wow! This post just made me smile - especially when I got to the last cake! I heart Kermit!

[MelindaB]

I will echo everyone else and say that this was the best post ever. I love rainbows--I am always compelled to arrange things in rainbow order: Skittles, M&Ms, you name it."Rainbow Connection" is one of my favorite songs, whether sung by Kermit, or on the CD The Green Album with Weezer singing the song.

My heart (and my eyes) turned into a big puddle while reading this post.

Cake Wrecks is now 20% cooler!

I love it! Love the Kermie at the end especially!

The cakes are gorgeous! I tried and failed to find the recipes for easy cakes (what I think I can do). I have tried to explain to local bakeries (and big grocery chains) what I want, but it was a no go. How hard is it to get a rainbow ice cream cake? I live in the French part of Canada. I was asked to explain what I want in French. I went in for a cake and left with a geography lesson (this is QC speak french).

I just found this site and it's out of sight!!! I hope I can't find anything, because it's almost 2:30am - tired. If you don't post recipes, what can I do?

I know I saw this the first time it was posted (Hello. I read every single post you folks put out there no matter what) but this time it hit me right in the feels.

Thanks.
