Step 3 of 7

Sift the flour and bicarbonate of soda into a separate bowl, stir to combine before folding the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula.

Step 4 of 7

Grease 2 X 15 inch cake pans with 1 tbs of butter in each pan. Divide the batter into the pans, leveling it out using a spatula.

Step 5 of 7

Bake in the oven for 40 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the centre of the cake. Let the cakes cool completely on a wire rack.

Start at low speed until the powdered sugar has mixed in before increasing the speed. As the frosting thickened add the coconut milk to help thin out the frosting slightly.

Step 7 of 7

To assemble the cake, place one round onto a cake dish. spread 1/4 of the frosting adding the other cake on top. Frost the top and sides of the cake using an offset spatula. Garnish the top with sprinkles before adding in the candles and celebrating.
