Not only is the cake delicious, but the colorful rainbow layers make it the ultimate centerpiece for any party. The Skittles Rainbow Party Cake is massive sponge cake meant to feed up to 20 people. The cake consists of five layers of fluffy vanilla sponge cake, each sandwiched between a layer of neon-colored, Skittles-flavored frosting. Of course, the cake is then topped with a massive rainbow swirl and a smattering of real Skittles candy. Unfortunately, the massive Skittles cake is only available at UK grocery chains ASDA, [Morrisons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-swirl-cake-slices) and [Sainsbury's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/party-rings-celebration-cake), so candy fans will have to make a special trip to get their hands on the giant rainbow treat.
