Hi Jane! This is one of my older recipes when I was making smaller cakes. To make it in two 8″ pans I would recommend using this recipe and adding funfetti to it: https://livforcake.com/vanilla-cake/

Hi! I made this cake last year for my daughters birthday. It was a big hit and she wants me to bake it again. I used 2-8 inch pans, but my cakes were very thin. I removed 2 tablespoons of flour and substituted with 2 tablespoons of corn starch per cup of flour as I did not have cake flour. Could this be the reason why the cakes were so skinny? I had to bake another one to have a normal sized cake.

In reply to Glutton for Punishment. Hi there! Strange about the buttercream not sticking to the cake -- I can't say I've ever had that happen before! What did you prep the sides of the pan with?

Hello! I made this cake last year for my son’s birthday. I had a nightmare of a time getting the icing to stick to the cake. I tried the fridge/freezer suggestion, but it still reduced me to tears and more than a few cuss words. I think I ended up adding more powdered sugar. It didn’t end up exactly the way I had envisioned…Do you have any other suggestions if I dare to try again?

Hi Marjan! Converting pan sizes is always tricky. Here are some sites I use as a guideline:

https://www.cookipedia.co.uk/recipes_wiki/Cake_tin_conversion_charts

I don’t have the amounts in grams for this one unfortunately, but I would recommend using this recipe instead and adding sprinkles to it. There is a metric converter below the list of ingredients: https://livforcake.com/vanilla-cake/

In reply to Iris. Hi Iris! Three large egg whites should work. Canadian cups are 250ml, US are 240 I believe.

In reply to Olivia. What is the difference between US or Canadian cups? I want to make this cake and I am in the US. Also, I don't want it yellowish so I want to use only egg whites, do I need to add one more or what do you suggest? Thanks in advance.
