Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Milk
• 10 drop Food coloring (red, blue, and yellow)
• 2 cup Buttercream frosting
• 8 ounce Fondant
• 5 drop Edible food coloring (black)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a guitar-shaped cake pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk.
5. Divide the batter into three bowls. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl, creating red, blue, and yellow batter.
6. Pour the colored batters into the prepared cake pan, starting with one color at a time to create layers.
7. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Once the cake is cooled, trim any uneven edges to create a guitar shape.
10. Frost the cake with buttercream frosting, covering the entire surface.
11. Roll out the fondant and cut out guitar-shaped decorations. Attach them to the cake.
12. Use edible food coloring to add details and create a realistic guitar design.
13. Allow the cake to rest for at least 1 hour before serving.
14. Enjoy your Strum-Along Guitar Cake!
