Ingredients
Method
1. Make the Cake Batter
Add the sugar and wet ingredients to a bowl and mix until combined. Gradually add the plain flour, coconut flour and baking powder, mixing on a low to medium speed until you have a smooth batter.
2. Create the Blue Gradient
Divide the cake batter evenly between four bowls. Gradually add Blue Spirulina Powder to each bowl, using different amounts to create four beautiful shades of blue, from light to deep blue.
3. Bake
Pour each coloured batter into a lined cake tin and bake at 175°C for around 35 minutes, or until a knife or skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Leave the cakes to cool completely before decorating.
4. Make the Blue Buttercream
Prepare your favourite buttercream and divide around ½ cup between three separate bowls. Add different amounts of Blue Spirulina Powder to each bowl to create three shades of blue.
5. Decorate
Cover the cake with a layer of white buttercream. Add the different shades of blue buttercream around the outside of the cake, then gently smooth with a cake scraper or palette knife to create a soft, blended blue effect.
Finish with your favourite decorations and enjoy your beautiful Blue Sky Sponge Cake! 💙
