For best results, use a kitchen scale to measure the flour accurately. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal emulsification. If you don't have cake flour, you can make your own by using 2 cups all-purpose flour and replacing 1/3 cup of the flour with cornstarch. The creaming stage is crucial for a light and airy cake. Don't rush it! To prevent the cakes from sticking, line the bottom of the pans with parchment paper rounds. A simple buttercream frosting or a dusting of powdered sugar complements this cake perfectly.
