- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup cake flour
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 3 cups sliced fresh strawberries
- 3 cups sliced fresh blueberries
- 3 cups sliced fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds
You'll also need a 10-inch round cake pan, a stand mixer, a whisk, a rubber spatula, a wire rack, and a pastry brush.
Instructions
Before you begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease and flour the cake pan. Then, let's get started on the cake batter.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Then, add the eggs one at a time, beating until the mixture is creamy. Next, add the sour cream and extracts and beat until combined.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined. Then, add the milk and cake flour and mix until smooth. Divide the batter between two 10-inch round cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake layers to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Meanwhile, make the frosting by combining the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and corn syrup in a medium bowl. Whisk until the mixture is light and fluffy. Once the cake layers have cooled, spread the frosting between each layer, reserving some for the top and sides of the cake. Refrigerate the cake for 30 minutes to let the frosting set.
When the cake is chilled, combine the strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Spread the berry mixture between the cake layers and sprinkle with toasted almonds. Spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake and refrigerate until ready to serve.
