Between each cake and covering the cake is a delicious Swiss meringue buttercream.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The silky texture of the buttercream works well with the soft and tender vanilla sponges. You could easily add more flavors to the cake batter such as lemon or orange, to add a pop of citrus flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The outside of the cake is then adorned with pastel sprinkles. This cake looks like a lot of fun and is eye-catching. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone will be amazed when you cut into the cake and see a pastel rainbow hiding inside.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marthastewart.com\/1129211\/pastel-layer-cake\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Pink Pastel Layer Cake<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n<p><\/p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/ext\/embed.html?id=1080582504323118099\" height=\"663\" width=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/center>\n\n\n\n<p>This vibrant design is composed of five pastel layers.

You could dye the cake batter any pastel color that you like.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, you could add more layers to the cake if you want to make the cake higher. Then a sweet Swiss meringue buttercream is sandwiched between the cakes and covers the cake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although, you could also use ready-to-roll icing to cover the cake, to create a much more traditional appearance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/xokatierosario.com\/pretty-pastel-cake\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Pretty Pastel Cake<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n<p><\/p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/ext\/embed.html?id=1080582504323118143\" height=\"618\" width=\"345\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/center>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are having a spring or summer wedding, then this cake is the perfect choice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With some texture, pretty colorful cakes can capture the eye.
