Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar together until pale and fluffy.
- Gradually add the warm water, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the egg mixture, mixing until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined and smooth.
- Split the batter evenly among the three prepared pans. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, allow the cakes to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Whipped Cream Preparation
- While the cakes cool, prepare the whipped cream. In a large mixing bowl, combine the two packets of whipped cream with the cold milk and beat until soft peaks are formed.
Assembly
- Once the cakes have cooled, assemble the cake by placing one layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of whipped cream on top and add a generous amount of sliced bananas, chopped strawberries, and blueberries.
- Place the second cake layer on top and repeat the process. Finally, add the third layer, topping it off with a thick layer of whipped cream and additional fruits for decoration.
- Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors meld together.
Notes
For added sweetness, sprinkle the fruits with a light dusting of sugar before layering them on the cake. Experiment with different fruit combinations to suit your taste or seasonal availability—peaches and kiwi add an exciting twist! For a gluten-free version, substitute the flour with a gluten-free blend.
