Base Ingredients
Manchester United Theme
Method
Preparing the Base
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Creating the Manchester United Theme
Divide the Batter
Split the batter into three separate bowls. Leave one bowl plain, add red food coloring to the second bowl until desired color is achieved, and black food coloring to the third bowl, mixing each until fully incorporated.
Layer the Batter
In a greased cake pan, alternate layers of the plain, red, and black batters to create a marbled effect. Use a knife to swirl the colors together for a more blended appearance.
Bake
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Decorating the Cake
Cool and Frost
Once baked, allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. Spread the white frosting evenly over the top and sides of the cake.
Add Decorations
Sprinkle chocolate sprinkles generously over the frosted cake. Add edible gold stars for a celebratory touch.
