It's official. The world (and internet) have gone rainbow mad - and the proof is in the rainbow pudding, quite literally.
Never heard of rainbow food? Well, you're about to - as everything from cheese toasties to lattes are getting the rainbow treatment. Once th preserve of cakes and sweets, rainbow food is when someone takes the humdrum normal foods we eat everyday, and makes it look as if a rainbow has thrown up on it - using dyes, creativity and technique to give us the aesthetically pleasing look of an edible rainbow.
The love of every Instagrammer and food blogger around - there's just something about a perfectly executed rainbow-coloured eat. The cascading ombre effect of colours seeping into each other is so Insta-worthy, it's no wonder that as soon as these rainbow foods come to be, they are an insta(nt) hit on social media.
Well to honour this new rainbow food era, we've rounded up the best rainbow foods for your viewing pleasure.
Enjoy!
