White Wedding Cake!
One of my best friends got married this weekend. This cake traveled four hours and barely made it alive, with Matthew’s crazy driving I am shocked! This cake caused me so much stress. I had to bake the cake twice because the first time it didn’t come out of the pan clean. Then the dots…. oh the freaking dots.
We were going to use sugar paper but it wasn’t dark enough to make it look classy. So we used gold foil, no you can’t eat it, so I just warned Amber to eat around it. Here is the perfect white wedding cake!
White Wedding Cake
Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
2 cups sugar
4 egg (room temperature)
1/2 cup milk (room temperature)
1/2 cup butter milk (room temperature)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
1. Preheat 350 degrees.
2. Sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
3. In the electric mixer cream butter and sugar. Add in one egg at a time, until well mixed.
4. Add in half of the flour, then the milk, then the rest of the flour and then the buttermilk. Last add the vanilla.
5. Grease a pan with Crisco and dust with flour. Fill the pan 1/2 way full and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the cake springs back with a light tap. Do not open the oven before the time is up or your cake will sink in the middle.
Even if it was a giant headache it turned out beautiful! You have so much patience! Thank you for sharing at Merry Monday!
It's beautiful! I'm sure the bride was super happy.

I love this cake!! I think it is so classic and timeless… (and it doesnt hurt that it matches my blog! haha)
Wow, so beautiful! I love the dots.
That is amazing! I used to work as a cake designer, the decorators did tonz of wedding cakes, and this is right up there, gorgeous! I am so impressed. The gold dots are perfect, love the design. And driving with it for four hours? Scary!!! Great job.
It's absolutely stunning! What an amazing job you did! To cover the cake, did you use buttercream of fondant? I've done a couple wedding cakes before, and I know you breathed a huge sigh of relief, once it got to it's destination…Oh my nerves! I know the feeling! Thank you for sharing at the #OMHGWW, it's fun to party with all you girls! Have a beautiful week!
This cake is perfect; simple yet stunning with its touches. Thanks for joining the #OMHGWW Linkup this week!

very pretty, but I don't think I would have had the patience to do it OR have it look as nice. But driving for 4 hours with it? No way. Have a great weekend!
What a beautiful cake, thank you for sharing it with us at Good Morning Mondays. Blessings
Gorgeous cake and I bet yummy too! Thanks for sharing with us at Thursday Favorite Things 🙂 Please join us again this week!
Wow, it's awesome! Really I love that,
I got married there earlier this year and cannot say enough positive things about the entire experience of working with their manager and the service, food and venue. The coordinators at Malibu wedding venue managed my wedding, and were impeccable wedding Angels.
