Steps

5 hours

1

first, decide on how many layers to your cake and which flavor, which color, and so on
2

I decided to make 6 layers with two colors and two flavors: green pandan extract and orange blossom water. Fancy!
3

you need to prepare and bake one cake at a time. You will probably get weary after a few hours but think of the greater goal!
4

now measure the ingredients for one cake (hint: divide the recipe by 10)
5

First beat the eggs until fluffy and do not skip this step as it is critical to the consistence of the final cake
6

Now beat in the sugar until light and fluffy
7

Add oil and butter milk and flavor and Colour to the wet ingredients
8

Now sift together the dry ingredients separately
9

Mix wet and dry ingredients very well and bake for 15 to 20 minutes in a medium hot oven. 180°C
10

repeat all these steps for each and every layer! (by the way, this batter is great for muffins too)
11

Let all your cakes cool down and select 2, that are nice and even, for the bottom and the top
12

If your cakes are bumpy just cut the top. Cut a round hole in the cakes that are not the top or the bottom. Be careful to work regularly and precisely
13

Now comes the fun part. Set the cakes together with buttercream and fill the hole in the middle with candy up to the top
14

Cover with lid, trim the sides and crumb coat the cake with buttercream
15

Now chill for a few hours or overnight
16

Next, make the cake pops. Use the trimmings from the cakes and mix with rum to make a dough
17

Forum regular walnut size balls
18

Chill for a few hours or overnight and dip in candy melts
19

You're nearly done! Cover the cake generously with the frosting of your choice. I choose vanilla buttercream frosting with added mascarpone. Place the cake pops on top of the cake in the soft frosting and chill for a few more hours.
