Rainbow Cake (Chef Noraini)

Hello everyone...
Here's hoping and wishing that everyone is in their best of health. I am still recovering from my ear infection. It's just not comfortable not being able to hear properly with both ears but on top of that, syukur alhamdulillah I can still hear....

Had not been experimenting much in the kitchen lately after the hectic weekend I had, preparing the goodies for Fatin's Cafe. At the same time, fulfilling the orders made beforehand and also one adhoc order that came in at 11am and safely delivered by 4pm.

Made this cake for Watie's adhoc order. Did not have the chance to see the sliced piece as I have to pass a whole cake to Watie. If you wish to see the texture, you can take a peek here. Thanks to Ummi for sharing this recipe with us. According to Ummi, she took the recipe from a book entitled Kompilasi Hidangan Kek by Chef Noraini. Thanks to Chef Noraini too. Allow me to post the recipe here.
