Vanilla Birthday Party Cake Recipe

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C and oil 3*20 cm sandwich containers, fixing the bases with parchment paper and lubing the paper as well.
2. Beat the butter and sugar in a big bowl with an electric blender until light and cushioned. Include the vanilla extract and the egg whites, one at a time, beating until completely mixed before including the next.
3. Combine the flour, baking powder, and cornflour. Include the dry ingredients in three additions, substituting with the buttermilk. Equally, divide the batter between the containers and level the tops. 
4. Bake for around 25 to 30 minutes. Let the cakes cool for five minutes and then invert them on a wire rack to cool totally.
5. To make the buttercream, put the egg whites and sugar in a large bowl with the vanilla seeds and set over a container of stewing water. Slowly beat until the sugar has completely broken down.
6. Remove the bowl from the warmth and continue beating until a thick meringue has shaped. Keep whisking until the meringue has cooled to room temperature, and then gradually include the butter, 1 tbsp at once. Once the butter is mixed, the mixture will turn into a smooth buttercream. Add the vanilla extract and blend to mix well. 
7. To complete the cake, place the baked cake on the turntable or cake board and top it with a buttercream layer. Repeat the same with the rest of the cake layers and wrap up by spreading the remaining buttercream over the top and sides of the cake. To get a smooth completion, utilize the edge of a palette blade, and drag delicately around the sides of the cake, streamlining the buttercream.
8. To further decorate the cake, decorate the sides of it with the edible sprinkles in the way you like. You can create any design or pattern with the sprinkles and can even write Happy Birthday! The cake is ready. You can refrigerate the cake for a few hours before serving.

So, that was the complete recipe to bake a delicious birthday cake. You can bake it by following all the instructions properly.
