Step-by-Step Instructions for Berries and Cream Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare two 8-inch cake pans with baking spray and parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter, canola oil, and white granulated sugar until fluffy.
- Mix in vanilla paste, egg whites, and sour cream until thoroughly combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients and buttermilk to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until just combined.
- Divide batter between the prepared pans and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Prepare the berries by tossing diced strawberries with blackberries and blueberries, adding sugar and letting sit for 10 minutes.
- In another bowl, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, and cold heavy cream and beat until creamy.
- Whip additional cold heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form, then fold into the cream cheese mixture.
- Assemble the cake by layering whipped cream and macerated berries between the cake layers, then chill before serving.
