The BEST White Cake Recipe

This moist and fluffy, melt in your mouth white cake recipe is wrapped in a creamy, dreamy, and light Swiss meringue buttercream that is easy to make and so versatile you’ll be whipping it up nonstop! I made this as a cute little six inch cake but you can easily scale up to an eight inch cake by doubling the recipe or a nine inch cake by tripling it.

I just made this cake with 9" pans. It's an absolute monster of a cake. It looks lile something from a movie. Also, it is every bit as delicious as advertised, and very robust. I frosted the living daylights out of mine and it held together like a champ. My only reccomendation is aimed squarely at my friends in the mountains. Make sure to watch it like a hawk in the oven, the baking times change at altitude, and to insulate yourself against dry over baked cake, double the sour cream in the recipe. For three 9" pans of cake, I used nearly a whole cup, and it came out perfect.

Thanks for the recipe.

Oh my word!!!! I made your Swiss meringue buttercream today for a cake for Easter dinner. I put lemon zest in it because it was a lemon cake. It turned out FANTASTIC!!!! Thank You!!! BTW.. I used plant based butter and it still turned smooth and so yummy!!

Made this today for my boyfriend's birthday and it was absolutely amazing! So moist and fluffy. Also added some sprinkles to the batter to make it funfetti. Love your recipes!

I love learning how to bake from you. "Mix for a minute, and by a minute I mean 30 seconds!" Thank you for your great instructions and the reasons for everything!!

Hearing you talk about your family always makes me smile

I’m about to make this for my mum’s surprise 70th birthday party... I’ll be decorating it with a golden drip topping and sugar paste flowers. Thanks for the recipe and the great instructions! I feel really confident to try a new recipe on such a special occasion because I know you’ve already ironed out all the problems and explained it so well. My version will be gluten free though, simply by using gf flour instead. Thanks again for all your hard work, it’s very appreciated ❤️

Not sure how you feel about showing your family, but I would've loved an ending showing your boys digging in! 💗

I just adore you! I also love that you include the grams and mL. So many bakers just say look up the conversion yourself! Thank you!
