Pink Marble Cake

35 to 40 minutes.

Pink marble cake. 15 minutes bake time. As a change from having chocolate marble cake you can make just about any colour of marble cake that you like out of my soft basic vanilla cake recipe. Preheat oven to 350 f 177 c. Sift the cake flour baking powder and salt together in a large bowl.

Sprinkle with small splatterings of gold paint. Adding a touch of colour to cake batter creates elegance fun or festivity depending on what colour you choose. I love adding pink but you can choose any one or two colours of your choice. Two 8 cakes or 24 cupcakes.

Beat the butter sugar flour and eggs together in a large bowl using an electric whisk until it s lump free. Place cake onto cake stand. With a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment beat the butter on high speed in a large bowl until smooth and creamy about 1 minute. Drip chocolate ganache around the sides and over the top of the cake.

Butter and line the bases of two 18cm sandwich tins. This one is strawberry and vanilla flavoured. Cakes with a marble effect are all the rage these days. Spray or lightly butter two 9 inch cake pans.

Arrange marbled chocolate decorations gilded berries and candied lemon slices on top of the cake. Cover cake with buttercream using semi naked method of icing.
