- Food coloring (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple)
- Line an 8-inch (20 cm) springform pan with parchment paper.

- Fold in the whipped cream gently until fully incorporated.
- Divide the cheesecake filling evenly into six bowls.
- Add a different food coloring to each bowl and mix gently.

- Chill between layers for clean separation.
- For a smoother surface, gently tap the pan after spreading each colored layer.
