How to Make the Recipe

Creating this floral berry cake design is a joyful process that combines artistry with baking precision. Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F). In a large bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until they turn light and creamy — this step gives the cake its fluffy texture. Gradually add milk and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth. In a separate bowl, mix the flour and baking powder before folding them into the wet ingredients. Pour the batter into a greased cake pan and bake for about 35–40 minutes or until golden brown.
Once baked, allow the cake to cool completely before you start decorating — patience here ensures the frosting stays perfect. For the frosting, whip chilled cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Use a piping bag to create elegant swirls around the cake. Finally, place assorted berries on top — strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries add vibrant color and natural sweetness. Finish with edible flowers for that professional touch that turns your cake into a masterpiece. This design is ideal for birthdays, weddings, or any special event that deserves a centerpiece dessert.

Conclusion

Cake design is a true reflection of creativity and passion. Through her artistic approach, Ella Chef proves that baking can go beyond taste — it can also capture emotion and beauty. With simple tools and a bit of imagination, anyone can craft a show-stopping dessert that delights the eyes as much as the palate. So, take out your piping bag, experiment with colors, and design your own cake that tells a story of celebration and joy.
