Thank you for making my recipe! You took pictures, right? Well go ahead and post them on Instagram! Be sure to mention me @iambaker and use the hashtag#YouAreBaker.
This recipe is totally based on myHomemade Yellow Cakerecipe except with one fun addition…
SPRINKLES!
I mean, who doesn’t love sprinkles? If it is you then I demand an explanation as to why you are dead inside.
Kidding. Kinda.
For the outside of the cake I called upon a technique I used before on aCandy Corn Cake. The difference being that I used a much larger tip (I believe it is theAteco #195 tip) and only two colors, light yellow and white.
The outside is every bit as fun as the inside… because a cake should be glorious inside and out, right?
Right.
成功的秘诀:
Make sure all “wet” ingredients are at room temperature. It is important in this recipe to not over mix the dry and wet ingredients or else the sprinkles may break and bleed. If the butter is soft (room temperature) it will be much easier to combine.
Try as I might, I could not get the sprinkles to SHOW when I placed them in the glass jar. Rest assured, they are there! It seems they just like to naturally settle away from the sides of the glass jar. (This is a good reminder to label your container with not only the contents, but the date.)
Here is a tutorial onhow to do the frosting technique. I paired it with thisWhipped Buttercream. (Hint: For WHITE buttercream try usingMcCormick® imitation clear vanilla extract.)
I did NOT use the traditional rainbow sprinkles. You know, the ones that look like little perfect round circles? I found that they bleed considerably more when baked and tend to blend together. The rainbow jimmies work better. You can see themhere.
If you want to give this for a gift (I would LOVE this as a gift!) simply print out the ‘wet’ ingredients and the directions and attach to the jar.
Be sure to add some instructions though~ something like, “After cake is cooled call me and I will be right over.”

Hi! I was wondering if it would be okay to eat if I didn’t bake it? I wanted to find a way to make funfetti mix in order to made dunkaroo dip (convoluted, i know). Would it work at all?
I would like the recipe for home made mug cake
For the Dry cake mix, how much of each wet ingredient should you put in? The exact same amount as the recipe says? Sorry if this is kind of a stupid question.
Hello, I am Laura from Texas.
有收到食谱通过的可能性吗Email? This method is what works best for me. Is this something that can be done?
Can you also use a 9×13 cake pan?
My daughter and I tried your homemade brownie mix. I was just perfect! She added some rainbow jimmies on top!
Thank you
Hi! Is this for two 9 by 9 cakes or a 9 by 13 cake? Thanks, Joan
