Step by Step – Girl Baby Shower Cakes

For the Pink Champagne Cake

Step One: Preheat Your Oven and Prepare the Cake Pans

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease all three of the cake pans with cooking spray.

Step Two: Make Cake Batter

In a large mixing bowl, mix the champagne and cake mix. Then, using an electric mixer beat in the vegetable oil, egg whites, and food coloring into the cake mix. Beat the mixture on medium speed for two minutes to thoroughly mix the batter.

Step Three: Bake the Cake

Pour the cake batter carefully into your cake pans that are greased. Bake the cakes for 29-34 minutes, until a toothpick you insert comes out clean. Allow the Pink Champagne Cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack.

Step Four: Make the Frosting

In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the Champagne, powdered sugar, butter, vanilla, and food dye. Beat the Champagne frosting until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.

Step Five: Decorate the Cake

Spread over a layer of frosting between the cake layers. Then, cover the sides and top of the pink Champagne cake with the rest of the frosting. Cover with sprinkles and edible pearls.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease your 8-inch cake pan and line the cupcake tin with liners.

Step Two: Make the Cake Batter

In a large mixing bowl, add the white cake mix, vegetable oil, egg whites, almond extract, and food coloring. For two minutes, beat the mixture with an electric mixer.

Step Three: Bake the Cake and Cupcakes

Frost the cake and cupcakes with white icing. Using a basket-weave tip, pipe half of the cake with pink icing. With a star tip, pipe one-quarter of the cake pink for the hood.

Simple Baby Shower Cakes for Girl

If you’re looking to make a relatively simple girl baby shower cake, this is the recipe for you. The ingredients you’ll need are:

for the cake:

13oz of cake flour
12oz of granulated sugar
1 teaspoon of salt
1 tablespoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
5oz of egg whites
4oz of vegetable oil
10oz of buttermilk
6oz of butter
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
2 drops of pink food coloring

for the whipped cream frosting:

24oz of heavy whipping cream
4oz of powdered sugar
2 teaspoons of powdered gelatin
1 tablespoon of water
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 cup of fresh raspberries

Now all you need to do is:

Preheat your oven to 340F and prepare two cake pans with cooking spray.
Add the following ingredients to a bowl: baking soda, baking powder, salt, sugar, and flour. Mix and leave to one side.
In a second bowl, add around 1/2 cup of buttermilk and oil. Mix and set aside. In a third bowl, add the remaining buttermilk, egg whites, food coloring, and vanilla extracts. Mix well.
Add the butter to the first bowl of dry ingredients and mix for around 30 seconds. Then add bowl two and mix for around 2 minutes. Finally, add in bowl 3, gradually, and scrape down the sides of the bowl as you go.
Pour batter into your prepared cake pans and place in the center of your preheated oven for 35-40 minutes. Leave to cool before frosting.
To make your frosting, first, add the gelatin and water to a bowl and leave for a few minutes. Add the bowl to the microwave for 5 seconds, and keep doing so until completely melted. Add 1 teaspoon of heavy cream to the bowl and leave to one side.
In a chilled mixing bowl, add the heavy cream and whip until you have soft peaks. At this point, you can gradually add the powdered sugar and extract.
Keep mixing until you form stiff peaks and then fill, and frost the top of your cake. Garnish with raspberries.

2 cups of sugar
2 1/4 cups of butter

Grab a bowl and add the following ingredients: egg whites, vanilla, and 1/4 cup of milk. Combine and set aside. In a separate bowl, add the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Mix well.
Add the butter and remaining milk to the dry ingredients and beat for 1-2 minutes. Now gradually add the egg white mixture, mixing and scraping the sides of the bowl as you go.
Carefully pour in the melted chocolate and fold in well. Pour your batter into your prepared cake pans and bake in the center of your oven for around 35-40 minutes. Leave to cool before frosting.
To make the buttercream, add the sugar and egg whites to a pan and heat over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and leave to cool.
Add the egg whites to a mixing bowl and mix until you have stiff peaks. Now you can add the butter, slowly. Mix until completely combined. Now gradually pour in the melted white chocolate, until you have a creamy frosting. Add pink food coloring, as desired.
