I have been using this vanilla cake for carving recipes – for a long time now and carved many cakes very successfully. It’s not as dense as a pound or sponge cake but not as delicate as vanilla cream cake or my light and fluffy vanilla cake. I strongly recommended that you freeze the cake for an hour at least before you carve it.
But carving a rich and moist cake is definitely difficult and not recommended for novelty cakes and a cake not rich and moist is definitely not desirable. So… MUST find the right balance. I think I did. This is the best sculpting cake recipe you will love. I wish you could see how soft and moist my carving cake recipes are.
Grease and line the baking pan you plan to use for your novelty cake. Sift dry ingredients – flour, salt, cocoa powder, baking soda, and baking powder. In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream soft room temperature butter, sugar, and eggs until light and fluffy. Then add the vanilla extract.
