Welcome to our friendly guide on how to bake the perfect creamy white cake with buttercream frosting! Whether you’re a seasoned baker or just starting out, we’ve got some tips and tricks that will help you create a delicious and beautiful cake that everyone will love.

Choosing the Right Ingredients

The first step to baking a great cake is using high-quality ingredients. For a creamy white cake, you’ll need:

• 2 1/4 cups of all-purpose flour
• 2 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1 1/2 cups of granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 1 cup of whole milk
• 4 large egg whites

Preparing the Batter

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your cake pans. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract.

Next, add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture in three parts, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the cake batter, being careful not to overmix.

Baking and Frosting

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula and tap the pans on the counter to remove any air bubbles. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once the cakes are baked, let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. While the cakes are cooling, it’s time to make the buttercream frosting.

For the buttercream frosting, you’ll need:

• 1 cup of unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 4 cups of powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup of whole milk
• 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract

In a mixing bowl, beat the butter until creamy. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth and fluffy.

Once the cakes are completely cooled, you can frost them with the buttercream frosting. Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a generous amount of frosting on top. Add the second cake layer and frost the top and sides of the cake.

Adding the Finishing Touches

Now that your cake is frosted, it’s time to add some finishing touches. You can decorate your cake with sprinkles, edible flowers, or even fresh fruit. Let your creativity shine!

Remember, baking is an art, and every cake is unique. Don’t be afraid to experiment and have fun with your creations. With these tips and your baking skills, you’ll be able to bake the perfect creamy white cake with buttercream frosting that will impress your friends and family.

So, put on your apron, gather your ingredients, and let’s get baking! Enjoy the process and savor the sweet rewards of your homemade masterpiece. Happy baking!

There is something truly special about a moist and creamy white cake with buttercream frosting. It’s a classic combination that never fails to delight the taste buds. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply craving a delicious treat, this recipe is sure to impress.

The Perfect Cake for Any Filling

Originally, I envisioned this cake with a fruity filling between the layers. However, I couldn’t find any good raspberries, so I decided to go with layers of buttercream instead. And let me tell you, it was a fantastic choice! There’s nothing quite like a generous layer of buttercream frosting to take your cake to the next level.

But don’t let my choice limit your creativity. This creamy white cake with buttercream frosting can be paired with any type of filling you desire. From zesty lemon to juicy blueberry, cranberry, cherry, strawberry, or even mango, the possibilities are endless. Choose the filling that suits your taste and the season, and enjoy a personalized cake experience.

The Recipe Substitution Dilemma

Ms. Teri, this cake looks SCRUMPTIOUS!!!! My question is, can this recipe use cake flour instead of all-purpose? And if so, how much cake flour would you use for this particular recipe? Thanks!!!!!

Hi Dana, I’m sorry for the late reply. Thank you for your comment. Just add an extra 2 tbsp of cake flour per cup when substituting for all-purpose flour. 🙂

A Keeper Recipe!

Made this cake for “girls night” and it was DEVOURED! This recipe’s a keeper for sure! Thanks for sharing!

Hi McKaylah, I’m so happy everyone enjoyed the cake! Thank you for your comment and sharing how well-liked the cake was. I truly appreciate the feedback! 🙂

Baking Tips for Glass Pans

This looks amazing, and I am going to make it for Easter and fill the layers with my homemade lemon curd. Quick question. I bake with glass cake pans and always lower the temperature so the tops stay flat. I have noticed that sometimes I have a problem getting the cake out of the pans. Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you so much!

Hi Barbara, that sounds like it will be delicious with your lemon curd. As for your question, you could use parchment paper which I use often. I would also lower your temperature about 25 degrees when you bake the cake being you are using glass. Happy Easter!

Yes, I do always lower to 325 and bake a bit longer. I use parchment paper often, but not with cakes, so I will try that. Thank you so much. I took a picture of the finished cake. Wish I could post it here.

Divine and Delicious!

Just finished making your cake and it looks absolutely divine…will not be eaten until tonight but I’m sure it will taste as good as it looks

Thanks for the comment Jordan! I’m not sure how I missed this comment! I hope your cake was delicious! 🙂

Sifting Flour for a Lighter Texture

Your cake looks scrumptious!! It inspires me to make one! I made a cake from scratch a long time ago… it was pretty bad—very dense. Is it necessary to sift the flour? OMG! I can’t wait to try this… if this works – no more Pepperidge Farm Coconut cake for me! Lol

Hi Sheila, thank you! I did not sift the flour, and I usually don’t for my cakes. You should try this one. It’s really good. Make sure to take a look at my other cake recipes. They are super delish!! Enjoy! 🙂

Thank you for your quick response. I will update you when I make the cake!

An All-Time Favorite

There really is something about an all-white cake, isn’t there? It’s an all-time favorite of mine. Your cake looks absolutely scrumptious, and your photography is fabulous!

Hi Stacy, yes, there sure is! Nothing better than a delicious white cake! Thank you for your lovely comments about my cake and the photography!! It means so much to me! Thank you so much, my friend! 🙂
