This is so beautiful when done. You can change the colors to suit yourself but it will surprise all when you slice it. A big Winner!

Ingredients
  • No-Stick Cooking Spray
  • 1 box Lemon Cake
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/3 cup Canola Oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • Food coloring
  • Frosting:
  • 3/4 cup All-Vegetable Shortening
  • 2-1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 or 3 tablespoons milk
  • Green food coloring, 6 drops

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spray 3 8-inch square pans with No Stick Cooking Spray; set aside.
  2. Prepare Lemon Cake mix according to package directions. Divide batter into thirds. Color each third with food coloring to make pale yellow, pale green, and pale pink batters. Pour batter into the prepared pans.
  3. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  4. Cool for 10 minutes in pans on racks. Remove from pans; cool completely on racks. Trim edges and cut each layer in half to make 6 rectangles.
  5. Spread 5 sections of cake with strawberry jelly. Stack layers alternating colors. Top with remaining section; turn so layers are up and down. Wrap and refrigerate while preparing the frosting.
  6. For Frosting, combine all ingredients except food coloring. Beat until creamy. Blend in food coloring to color frosting a pale green.
  7. Frost cake.
  8. Be sure to slice cake so there is a ribbon effect.
