Ingredients

2 bagsPamela’s Classic Vanilla Cake Mix
6 eggs, large
1 cup melted butter
1 1/3 cup water
2 tsp organic blue spirulina powder
¼ cup Freeze-Dried Strawberries, grounded
4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
Strawberries
Blueberries
Edible flowers

Directions

Cake
I follow the directions on the packaging. Preheat the oven to 325F. Whisk eggs, butter, and water, until well incorporated. Add the dry mix and beat by hand or on medium/low for 2 minutes. The batter thickens slightly and becomes lighter in color.
Next, divide the batter evenly into three separate bowls. Add Freeze-Dried Strawberries to one bowl and blue spirulina powder to another, leaving the third bowl plain for the white layer. Pour each colored batter into its respective cake pan (I used 9” pans) and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely before assembling.
Frosting
While the cake is cooling down you can prepare the frosting. Add the cream in a mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer on medium until it’s fluffy. Add the powdered sugar 1 tablespoon at a time mix well and scrape the sides.
Assembly
Place the bottom part of the cake on a plate. First, add about 1/3 of the frosting, spread it, and make sure that the edges are higher than the center, add sliced strawberries and cover with a little more frosting. Add another cake add some frosting and blueberry then a little more frosting and repeat until you get to the last piece of cake. For the top of the cake only use frosting and spread it around. Then go around the cake with a knife to even the frosting adding more frosting if needed.
Decoration
Just add some berries and edible flowers around and on top of the cake.
