My daughters did this over the weekend with rainbow colors and impressed their friends. They made color piles in three sections of a 9x13 pan. Thicker batter makes wider stripes. They used gel-base colors to keep from thinning the batter too much, which causes the colors to blend. Personally, I like the vanilla-chocolate idea better! I've recently seen that done with icing. Make red, blue and yellow icing and blob in randomly into a piping bag. When you pipe it out, the icing blends a bit and makes new colors. Very pretty in pastels. I've definitely got it on my list to try. ~ MaryJane
