Servings: 10

Ingredients

  • 2 1/3 cup cake flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp skim milk powder
  • 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1 ¾ cups sugar

  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups fresh strawberries finely chopped
  • pink food colouring
  • buttercream recipe here
  • pink, yellow and black food colouring

Instructions

  • Sift the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and skim milk powder into a bowl and mix together. In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk and vanilla extract. Set both bowls aside.
  • In a large bowl, whip the butter and sugar together with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Then add the eggs and egg whites one at a time, mixing after each addition. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the buttermilk mixture (flour>buttermilk>flour>buttermilk>flour), gently mixing after each addition. Divide the mixture into 2 bowls and dye one bowl pink. Divide the diced strawberries between the two bowls and mix until just combined.
  • Place dollops of both batters into a greased Hello Kitty cake pan. Bake at 350F for 1 hour or until fully cooked. Transfer the cake to a cooling rack and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and place directly on the wire rack to cool completely.
  • Dye some buttercream pink, yellow and black and leave the remaining large amount of buttercream white. Place the buttercream into piping bags fitted with star-shaped piping tips and decorate the cake! Enjoy!
