Follow these simple steps to make the perfect cake
1. Prepare all ingredients at room temperature (eggs, butter, flour, etc.)
2. It is very important to sift all dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, sugar, etc.) to avoid lumps
3. Preheat the oven at least 10 minutes before to the desired temperature.
4. Bake the cakes in the center of the oven to achieve even temperature.
To apply the frosting, follow these steps:
1. Wait for the cake to be completely cool before applying the frosting
2. Remove all loose crumbs, being careful not to break it
3. With a spatula, apply 1 layer of frosting (approximately 1/2 cup) on the top of the cake, leaving the edges without frosting (about 2 cm.)
4. Place a light layer of frosting on the sides to seal in the crumbs
5. Apply more frosting on the sides with a continuous motion from the sides to the edge on top that you left uncovered.
6. Apply the remaining frosting on top. You can make small movements to create a decoration.
