   Hi! I want to make this exact cake and frosting tutorial except I want to use your chocolate cake recipe instead of the yellow sponge cake. Do I need to double the chocolate cake recipe to get three 8-inch round cakes like in this tutorial? Also, can I make the cakes today, refrigerate them overnight in plastic wrap, then frost them tomorrow? Thanks!

     Hi Katie, Yes you can use the rich chocolate cake recipe, one batch makes 2 8″ cakes so for 3 cakes you will need 1 1/2 times the recipe.

   Hi Ann,

   I want to make a version of this cake for my son’s birthday. It will be blue ombre with horizontal petals. My questions are:

   1. How many times cake recipe would I need to feed about 30 people? I want to use the chocolate cake recipe of yours. I was thinking maybe 2x so 4 cake tins?

   2. I have a small oven so would I be able to make the entire cake mix at once and then only cook 1 tin at a time and store the rest in the fridge? Or will it not cook properly after refrigeration?

   3. Is food colouring from the supermarket ok or will I need to use too much to get a bright enough colour and result in runny buttercream? If so what brand colouring for blue would you suggest.

   Thanks!

     Hi Sally,
     One quantity of my chocolate cake makes 24 cup cakes so double will definitely be enough cake for 30 people. The only difficulty is in cutting a round cake into that many portions (think very tall skinny wedges), I’d suggest slicing across the cake and making rectangles instead of wedges.
     Most ovens will fit two round cake tins at once, I’ve never left the batter out before baking – mainly because I can’t fit more into my mixing bowl. I tend to measure out the ingredients for two batches into seperate bowls and do all the steps except adding the flour. Then add the flour & baking powder just before you’re ready to bake. The baking powder starts working as soon as it is wet.
     For this recipe I used regular liquid colouring from the supermarket, if you want it even brighter gel is easier to work with so the buttercream doesn’t split with the extra liquid.
