Hello! Cake looks Yummy! Are the Ingredients given above for 1 9 inch layer or 2 9 inch layers? Thank You!
Hi Betty,
This cake makes 2 9-inch layers.
I hope you enjoy it! It is a great cake.
Happy Baking
Would I need to double this to make 2 cakes like pictured?
Hi Carrie, Yes you would double the recipe to make 2 9-inch 2-layer cakes. We'd recommend making 2 seperate recipe batches. It will make incorporating ingredients into a batter and distribution of the batter into the pans more consistent. BTW, this cake is DELICIOUS! Happy baking!
I have only 8" cake pans. Do I need to adjust the recipe or will it work in 8" pans? Thank you.
Hi Colleen, You may need to use 3 8-inch pans. Make sure to only fill the pans 2/3 of the way full. If you only have 2 pans you can make a few cupcakes with the remaining batter. Happy baking!
With eggs priceswhat they are today, if the recipe calls for 6 eggs. Is it ok if l use 4
Hi Nina, We know! We feel the pain of rising price of eggs in our Kitchen as well. Eggs help to form the structure of the cake, adds flavor and also adds moisture since they are made primarily of water. Unfortunately we haven't tested this recipe with only using 4 eggs so can not make a recommendation here. If you try it, come back and let us know how it turned out. Happy baking!
Hi, I only have salted butter , is it OK to use?
Hi Jaquitta, Yes you can use salted butter and reduce the amount of salt by 1/2 teaspoon. Happy baking!
I can remember my mom using swans cake flour to do her baking I was about 12 years old and I used to watch her as she would bake her cakes but I tell you they were delicious my mother is no longer here and I have to go over the tradition of doing the baking now in I still use the swan cake flour it's the best in my book.

Can you make this as a 9x13 sheet pan cake?
Hi Shani, The Vanilla Buttermilk Cake should bake nicely in a 9 x 13 pan. Happy baking!
Is this sifted or unsigned flour measurements? Do you happen to have this (or any) recipe in grams? Thanks!

I have a question, I only use Swans cake flour and my cakes comes out with small black spots on them. I don't know why?
Hi Alicia, I've forwarded your information to our Consumer Affairs Department. Someone will be reaching out. Happy Baking!
