Tips for Making the Perfect Vanilla Cake

  • Make sure your butter is softened before you start. If it's too hard, it won't cream together with the sugar properly.
  • Make sure you don't overmix the batter. This can cause the cake to be dense and dry.
  • Once the cakes are done, let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes before turning them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • If you want to dress up your vanilla cake, you can add a simple glaze or frosting. Vanilla buttercream frosting is always a favorite.


This classic vanilla cake is sure to be a hit at any gathering. It's light and moist, and it's easy to make. Plus, it's a great base for adding your own favorite flavors.
