\u2022 1 tsp salt <\/p>\n

\u2022 1 tsp baking powder<\/p>\n

\u2022 1 and \u00bd cups unsalted butter<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00be cup milk <\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00be cup sour cream <\/p>\n

6-inch top tier<\/h2>\n

\u2022 1 and \u00be cups all-purpose flour<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00bc tsp salt <\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00be tsp baking powder<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00bc tsp baking soda<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00bd cup unsalted butter<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00bd cup sugar<\/p>\n

\u2022 1 large egg and 1 egg white<\/p>\n

\u2022 2 tsp vanilla extract<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00bd cup sour cream<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00bd milk <\/p>\n

Frosting 9-inch cake<\/h2>\n

\u2022 2 cups unsalted butter<\/p>\n

\u2022 8 cups confectioner sugar<\/p>\n

\u2022 6 tablespoons whole milk or heavy cream<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00bd teaspoon vanilla extract<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u215b teaspoon salt <\/p>\n

Frosting 6-inch cake<\/h2>\n

\u2022 1 cup unsalted butter<\/p>\n

\u2022 4-5 cup confectioner sugar<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00bc cup milk or heavy cream<\/p>\n

\u2022 1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/p>\n

\u2022 Salt to taste<\/p>\n

Baking Instructions<\/h2>\n

1. Make each cake separately. Firstly, bake the bottom tier. Prepare the cake pans 9*2 inch for the bottom and 6 *2 for the top tier\u2014Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. <\/p>\n

2. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. Keep aside.<\/p>\n

3. Beat butter and sugar until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides and add eggs and vanilla extract. The mixture will look curdled. Add in sour cream, scrape the sides of the bowl and beat. <\/p>\n

4. Slowly add the dry ingredients, occasionally stirring milk in between and beating at low speed. <\/p>\n

5. Stop when you get the desired consistency. You can hand whisk the batter to make sure there are no lumps at the bottom. Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake the cake. Test for doneness. Let it cool on the wire rack for some time.<\/p>\n

6. Now, bake the 6-inch top tier cake in the same manner. Repeat all the steps in the same order again. <\/p>\n

7. Using a serrated knife, slice off a thin layer from the top of the cakes for getting a flat surface. This process is called leavening.<\/p>\n

8. Make the frosting: Take a bowl and mixer, beat butter until creamy. Add all the other remaining ingredients (milk, sugar, vanilla essence, salt) and beat at high speed. Add sugar if it is thin, milk if it is too thick, and salt if it is too sweet. <\/p>\n

9. Similarly, make frosting for the 6-inch cake.<\/p>\n

10. Assemblage: Place the cake on a turntable. Using the spatula, apply icing on the cake layers. Top it with another cake layer and put it on the frosting. Once the layering is done, crumb coat the cake and richly cover it with the frosting. Do it the same with the 6-inch cake. <\/p>\n

11. Shift the cake to the cake board carefully. Decorate it as you like. You can add a wedding cake topper. If you know how to work with a piping bag, add some piping designs.<\/p>\n

Your homemade wedding cake is ready! <\/h2>\n

\u2022 The cake is best enjoyed within three days. Cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate it<\/p>\n

\u2022 Similarly, you can try your hands at tasty wedding anniversary cakes<\/a> that will look no less appealing and delicious than wedding anniversary cakes online. <\/p>\n
