So, you need to bake two round biscuit cakes, cut them into halves and in two of them cut out the middle.

And cover the rest of the half, all the cakes are combined with cream.
Now we smear the cake from all sides with cream mastic, for example, oil, try to make the most smooth surface.
Take the white mastic, add a blue dye to get a blue color. It is better to work with gel colors, but also dry ones will do, just have to masticate longer to evenly distribute the color. Do not forget to wear gloves, dye though food, but it stains well.
The resulting mastic is rolled into a large, relatively thin layer.
We begin to tighten our cake, it is better to lift it on some substrate for convenience.
We spread it with a spatula, we cut off excess mastic, blue is still useful in the rainbow, and it can also be painted in more saturated colors, blue and violet.
Now we paint several pieces of mastic in seven colors of the rainbow.
We roll multicolored flagella and form a rainbow from them in a semicircle, cut off excess edges and leave them to dry.
We remove from the mold, we grease the side on which the rainbow lay and glue the front of the cake.
