1

Prepare the cake batter

Start by preheating your oven to the recommended temperature. Then, gather all your cake ingredients, including flour, sugar, eggs, butter, milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of magic. Mix them all together in a large bowl until you have a smooth and golden batter.

2

Bake the golden cake

Grease your cake pans with a little bit of butter and sprinkle them with flour to prevent sticking. Pour the golden batter evenly into the pans and tap them gently on the counter to release any air bubbles. Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for the specified time, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

3

Let it cool and frost it up

Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack. In the meantime, prepare your favorite frosting recipe (buttercream works great for this golden cake). Once the cakes are cool, spread a generous amount of frosting on top of one cake layer. Place the second layer on top and frost the entire cake with a smooth and even layer of frosting.

Sprinkle on the magic

Now, the moment you've been waiting for—time to add the edible glitter! Sprinkle a generous amount of edible glitter on top of the frosted cake. You can go for an all-over glittery effect or create your own unique design. Just remember to have fun and let your inner glitter queen or king shine!
