ingredients

1 package cherry gelatin
1 package lemon gelatin
1 package lime gelatin
1 package blueberry gelatin
1 package classic white cake mix (plus ingredients to prepare)
1 container (16 ounce size) yellow frosting
1 container (16 ounce size) white frosting
6 drops blue food coloring

directions

Preheat oven following directions on cake box.

Make cake batter following directions on the back of the box. Split batter into fourths and put in separate 9 inch round baking pans.

Add 2 tbsp of gelatin from each gelatin flavor into a different cake pan (for example put the cherry gelatin in one pan and the lemon gelatin in another pan).

Bake following instructions on cake box.

When cakes are cooled, frost each cake with yellow frosting, except the red cake and layer them in this order one on top of the other: blueberry, lime, lemon, then cherry on top.

Set aside 1/4 cup of the white frosting. Combine remaining white frosting with blue food coloring. Spread blue colored frosting on top cake layer.

Use buttered knife to spread the 1/4 cup of reserved white frosting as clouds on the cake.
