- 3 layers of vegan vanilla sponge cake
- 1 batch of vegan cream cheese frosting
- ¼ - ¾ cup vegan sprinkles
- ¼ - ½ cup vegan candies e.g. Katjes rainbow gummies
Make vegan cream cheese frosting and store in fridge until ready to use. Prepare 3 layers of vanilla sponge cakes. Let them cool completely before assembling. If you mix sprinkles and several kinds of candy, add everything into a small bowl and mix to combine.
If needed, flatten cake layers by trimming off rounded tops. In 1 layer, cut small round out of center, using a 3-inch round cutter for a 6 inch cake, or a 4-inch round cutter for an 8-inch cake.
To assemble cake: Place 1 uncut cake layer on rotating cake stand; spread ⅓ cup frosting on top. Top with the cored layer. Fill cake with candies and sprinkles and gently press candies to level. Then frost the top, and top with another full cake layer.
Frost side and top of cake with remaining frosting and decorate as desired. Transfer to a cake stand, keep in fridge until served.
