Day #5 is here, along with our final revisited and recreated recipe. I’ve really enjoyed remembering these recipes with all of you. I hope you have found one to try for this upcoming holiday weekend!
Our final recipe is my personal favorite of the week, mainly because it brings the most smiles. If you want to make a cake that will be a show-stopper at your holiday celebration, this is it.
This recipe was published recently, in January of 2013. It is so incredibly fun to make. I’ve made it 5 times now and each time I do, I love it more. You can color the cake layers, you can color the polka dots…endless fun possibilities!
It is not a difficult recipe, but it is time consuming and it requires a cake ball maker (or, according to my commenters on the recipe, a mini muffin tin).
It takes two cake mixes and I made both mixes and simply divided them evenly into the three colors. I made 12 cake balls in each color and one layer of each color.
The original blog post has detailed instructions and photos, so I recommend you visit there 1st if you want to make this cake. The comments are also very helpful and full of tips on making this work well.

I finally got a chance to make the Polka Dot Cake. Everyone LOVED it! Now I want to try your fantastic variation. What a great idea to go red/white/blue!
I’m so glad you got a chance to try it! Once you get the technique down, it’s a little addictive! So many color and flavor possibilities!
I’ve always wondered how to make these incredible cakes – now I know! It looks stunning.
Thank you- it’s really not as hard as you would think, just seeing it! Hope you get a chance to try one!!

Thank you!! It really is very yummy. I’m a big fan of chocolate, so I see chocolate polka dot cake in my near future 😉
