How to Make Pink Rose Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the cakes are cooling, prepare the buttercream frosting. In a large bowl, beat the butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy.
  9. Stir in the rose extract and pink food coloring until you reach your desired shade of pink. Start with a small amount of food coloring and add more as needed.
  10. Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the top of one layer with a generous amount of buttercream frosting.
  11. Carefully place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining frosting.
  12. Decorate as desired. Fresh roses, sprinkles, or edible glitter would be beautiful additions!
