This delightful Barbie cake recipe is perfect for anyone looking to add a touch of magic to a birthday celebration or any special occasion. With its whimsical design and delicious flavors, this cake is sure to impress both children and adults alike. Featuring tender layers of pink vanilla cake and smooth, creamy buttercream frosting, this recipe is designed to bring the iconic Barbie doll to life as the centerpiece of the cake, making it a standout at any party.

To make the cake, you'll start by preparing the dry ingredients – flour, baking powder, and salt – and setting them aside. The wet ingredients, including butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla, are then combined to create a fluffy, smooth batter. A touch of pink food coloring ensures that the cake has a classic Barbie pink hue. The batter is divided between three 6-inch round cake pans and baked until golden, with the layers cooling completely before frosting.

The frosting is just as important as the cake itself, and this recipe gives you a perfect, smooth buttercream. The frosting is whipped up with butter and powdered sugar, and a little pink food coloring is added to create the perfect shade for the Barbie gown. Assembling the cake involves layering the cake with frosting, carving a small hole for the doll, and carefully wrapping her legs in plastic before inserting her into the center. The frosting is then shaped around the doll to form her dress, with the option to decorate with glitter, fondant flowers, or sprinkles for extra flair.

This Barbie cake recipe is a fun, creative project that will bring joy to your celebration and create lasting memories for everyone involved. Whether you're a novice baker or experienced in the kitchen, the step-by-step instructions will guide you to a flawless finish, ensuring your cake is the star of the party.

    Bake the Cake

    2. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, sift flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
    3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well.
    4. Add Wet Ingredients: Mix in vanilla, then alternate adding dry ingredients with milk, mixing just until combined. Add pink food coloring for that Barbie effect.
    5. Bake: Divide batter into pans, bake 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
