Going to try to add a different flavor to each color.
Red: Strawberry (Probably like a dab of jam or strawberry sauce)
Orange: Orange (Orange Juice)
Yellow: Lemon (Juice from a lemon + lemon zest)
Green: Lime (Juice from a lime)
Blue: Blueberry (Blueberry Juice, or possibly Blueberry pomagranite juice)
Purple: Grape (Grape Juice)

And I'll use frosting.

I love this, can't wait to make it!
