A blue layer cake with cream.
Its been 9 days ago that we welcomed a new family member, our nephew! For the first time we are aunties to a handsome little boy. We are so HAPPY! To celebrate we made a blue 5-layer cake and between the layers vanilla cream.
We’ve never made a cake like this before, it took us almost a whole day to bake and decorate. So after we finished we were a little bit nervous. How will it look like if we cut the cake? We didn’t expected it, but lucky it turned out beautifully and yummie! Just the colors went a little bit greenish /turquoise :s, but its okay cause we love pastel colors haha. Our family loved it too…pheww. It was such a fun baking this layer cake, we really enjoyed it.
Below you can see some pictures.
Congratulations on becoming Aunties!
Thank you Sue!! 🙂
What magnificent bake! Wish I can do something like that too! =)
Thank you Mydearbakes! We are sure you can make a cake like this too 🙂
Your cake is beautiful well done, did it taste as good as it looks? The French love these cakes, it’s the new trend. Congrats on your nephew!
Hi! Thank you. Our family and friends said it tasted good, so hopefully they don’t lie haha. We didn’t know its a new culinary rage in France. A cake like this is fun to make, cause you can put your creativity in it 🙂 Using different colors. Thanks for visiting our blog 🙂
Mazel tov on the birth of your nephew (he is SO cute). Beautiful cake for a little boy, Anneke and Ineke! I made my daughter a tie-died cake this year with many colors for her birthday. It’s fun to do things like this for kids; well-done! Best – Shanna
Thank you Shanna! Oh wow a tie- died cake, with many colors, we are sure your daughter loved it! And we believe it sure tasted good too! Is it difficult to make this tie-died cake? Because of this layer cake (and luckly it went well haha) we now love to try to make other cakes too. Cheers twins
Hi, Anneke and Ineke:
Check this out for instructions on how to make the colors tie-dyed. You can use any recipe you desire, as long as it is for a white cake. You just need food coloring! 🙂

Hi Shanna, Thanks for sharing the link! We are going to try it soon..Cheers Ine and Anne
Take care!
Love the colour
Hi! Thank you 🙂
Congratulations on your beautiful nephew! HOW did you get the icing so smooth on that cake? It looks great!
Thank you Sally! We just covered the whole cake generously with whipped cream, thinning it out with a spatula. Make sure to make it even ( also the edges) So when you put the fondant/icing on the cake it will be smooth.
wow… that’s a pretty looking cake!
Thank you Muscleheaded for your nice comment!

Those sponges mixes could easily be mistaken for pots of paint 🙂 I remember my brother winning a school cake baking competition for making a blue cake. Your cake looks impressive in layers.
It really does look like post of paint isn’t especially with the bubbles in it hihi…because of the stirring. We are sure your brothers blue cake looked great, winning the competition! Thanks for stopping by!
Sponge* mixes 🙂

🙂 Anneke
Hi Anneke! Thank you so much!! You have an awesome blog too, your traveling post are fun to read. Keep posting!
Superpretty ❤ Jammer dat cakebeslag altijd wat geel is; misschien is het mogelijk een cake te maken zonder het eigeel zodat het niet gekleurd is?
Dank je! Ja idd, we kwamen achter dat het eigenlijk beter was om een “witte cake” recept te gebruiken hierdoor komen de kleuren beter uit. Next time gaan we het proberen hihi.
Ach, dit is ook wel een heel schattig kleurtje 😉
You’re giving me ideas here! I may adapt that wit alternating blue and pink layers 🙂
Oh yes that’s a great idea too!! Have fun making this layer cake 😀
