This blue ombre cake by The Hungry Housewife is a colorful dessert that can be baked and decorated in your very own kitchen. You can use any cake for this recipe so choose your favorite flavor. To have a smooth end product, it is essential to give your cake a crumb coating. This means to cover your cake in a layer of frosting before decorating it. The ombre effect is achieved by dying the frosting a number of shades of the same color. You'll want to start with the lightest color frosting and proceed from there. A detailed photo tutorial and step-by-step photos are available on the website.
