This Pink Champagne Cake features light and fluffy layers of cake with a subtle champagne flavor, topped with rich, creamy frosting and a hint of sweetness from a dusting of cocoa powder. Perfect for any celebration!

Ingredients

  • Cake Flour: 2 ½ cups – Provides a light, airy texture.
  • Granulated Sugar: 1 ½ cups – Sweetens the cake.
  • Baking Powder: 2 tsp – Helps the cake rise.
  • Salt: ½ tsp – Enhances the flavor of the cake.
  • Butter: 1 cup (softened) – Adds richness and moisture to the cake.
  • Eggs: 4 large – Acts as a binder for the cake batter.
  • Pink Champagne: ¾ cup – Provides the light, fruity flavor.
  • Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp – Enhances the flavor of the cake.
  • Heavy Cream: 1 ½ cups – Used for the frosting to create a smooth, creamy texture.
  • Powdered Sugar: 4 cups – For a smooth, sweet frosting.
  • Butter (for frosting): ½ cup – Gives the frosting a rich, smooth texture.

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour your cake pans.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients—cake flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, cream the butter and eggs together until light and fluffy. Add the champagne and vanilla, then slowly add the dry ingredients, mixing until combined.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Bake the cakes for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  5. Cook to Perfection: While the cakes cool, prepare the frosting by whipping together the heavy cream, butter, and powdered sugar. Beat until smooth and fluffy.
  6. Finishing Touches: Once the cakes have cooled, spread frosting between the layers and over the top and sides. Smooth the frosting with a spatula, and garnish with sprinkles or edible flowers if desired.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Pink Champagne Cake as a centerpiece for any occasion. Slice and enjoy the soft, moist layers paired with the creamy frosting!

Notes

  • If you want a stronger champagne flavor, you can add more champagne to the cake batter.
  • Let the cakes cool completely before frosting to avoid the frosting melting.
  • For an elegant presentation, garnish the cake with edible flowers or fresh berries.
