rainbow chip frosting?

[MrsPotatohead]

So wasn't it recently everyone got all excited because they were bringing it back? have any of you found it?

My mom was joking about making a rainbow chip cake for my birthday because that's what we liked when we were kids, but she didn't know the frosting was back when I told her this morning. Anyway, she said she was going to the grocery store and would check, but texted to say there wasn't any.

I asked for one for my birthday, but no one could find it (Midwest).

It's from Doctor Who when Rose absorbed the Time Vortex from inside the TARDIS. Her eyes are glowing with the power of all of space and time.

Nerd alert!

J/K - we could never get into Doctor Who.

Sorry. I like rainbow chip frosting. Sorry it is unavailable. The Rainbow Sprinkle Frosting on the Betty Crocker website has 1 out of 5 stars and people are freaking out about the Rainbow CHIP frosting being gone.

Why do businesses get rid of the stuff we love the most?

I know, I really don't understand why they would get rid of something everyone loves. There was an article in May saying they were bringing it back though, so I don't know what's going on... boo

(also I hope you know I was joking about the hijacking )

I had never heard of this rainbow chip, but apparently Katy Perry could not turn 30 without its magic abcnews.go.com/Lifestyle/katy-perry-save-rainbow-chip-frosting/story?id=26343624

If your mom REALLY loves you, she can make it from scratch

When you are in the throes of labor today, you should have your husband make a video of you crying out for Rainbow Chip Frosting and then submit that to Betty Crocker. It would just be inhumane to deny after that.

From scratch? What do you use for the chips?

This is the one I've made, which @ksta linked. Making the rainbow chips is the most time intensive part. The rest isn't so bad.

spa - that recipe looks good, but I don't know how I feel about the crunch chocolate chip things.. part of the beauty of rainbow chip is that there isn't a candy coating on it.

yeah, I think I've seen these before, it's basically white chocolate chopped up - if I did it I'd probably not bother with food coloring and maybe add in sprinkles for color. I think I'll tell my mom about it though!

Makes sense. The reason why I chose that one is because I like the chocolate rocks
