For the purpose of this test I decided any white cake with sprinkles could be considered Funfetti, which meant recipes labeled “sprinkle cakes” were fair game. From there, I looked at the most-searched-for recipes, and narrowed the list down to four recipes that each took a unique approach.
Next up was Martha Stewart, who described her picture-perfect three-layer sprinkle cake as “the ultimate birthday cake.” It was definitely the most labor-intensive of the bunch, requiring multiple mixing bowls and a fancy Swiss meringue buttercream. Would it be worth the effort? The final recipe came from Sally’s Baking Addiction.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Set aside. In a separate large bowl, combine the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and butter. Beat with an electric hand mixer on high speed until super light and fluffy, about 4 minutes.
The four recipes differed greatly in their approaches. A few called for buttermilk, one called for shortening, and some called for oil. Some recipes relied on pure vanilla extract alone, while others used clear vanilla extract and almond extract to mimic the beloved Funfetti flavor.
