Preparing the Cake:
Pre-heat Oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare cake batter according to directions on box.
Evenly divide batter into four separate bowls.
Add 1 tbsp. of Jell-O Gelatin Powder to each bowl and stir. Use a different color for each bowl - You choose the colors, but definitely avoid grape.
Pour each bowl of batter into a different greased/floured cake pans.
Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until your cake tester comes out clean.
Allow your colorful round cake layers to cool, and then remove them from the pans.
Stack your cake layers, spreading yellow frosting between each layer.
Preparing the Outer Icing:
Scoop most of the white frosting into a bowl. (Set a little extra to the side for the clouds.)
Add six drops of blue food coloring to the frosting. Stir until blended.
Use this mixture to cover the outside of the cake.
Take the remaining white frosting you side aside and make cloud formations on the top and on the sides of the cake.
