So happy to write and share this special post today. Our friends, Christine and Jim are expecting baby #2. Charlie’s going to be a big brother! Shout it from the rooftops!
Congratulations G & P Family!!!!!!

Here’s what you’ll need

Start by leveling the cakes. You can also use a cake level, but we couldn’t find ours!

Use a round glass to cut circles in the 2 middle layers

Start layering the cakes, putting frosting in between each layer

Once the layers are stacked, pour the M&M’s in the circle. We bought these cute personalized M&M’s. Swoon!
Now start frosting the edges and top using an offset spatula. Try to be as even as possible
We cut a circle of parchment paper and temporarily placed in the center so the M&M crumbs wouldn’t dirty the center
Now time for the crumbs. We crushed pink and blue

Need to work on my writing a bit (A LOT) but still…look how pretty!
We made 2 batches of this White Chocolate Yellow Layer Cake and whipped up our ‘go to’ Vanilla Buttercream

White Chocolate and Yellow 4-Layer Cake
Ingredients
- 4 9-inch round cakes
- 4 cup vanilla buttercream frosting
- pink or blue M&Ms
Instructions
- Start with 4 completely cool cakes. Level the cakes by trimming off the rounded tops either with a knife or with a cake level
- Stack 2 layers on top of each other and use a round drinking glass (about 3-4 inches) to cut cut a round circle in both centers.
- To assemble cake, place 1 cake layer (NOT one of the ones with the center removed) on a cake stand or flat serving platter and spread 1/3 cup frosting on top using an offset spatula. Do not frost the center where the cut out layers will lay.
- Top the bottom layer with another cake (this one with center removed); spread 1/3 cup frosting evenly on top. Add the third layer (another cake with the center removed); spread 1/3 cup frosting on top.
- Pour the M&M’s into the cut out center and gently press candies to level. Top the cake with the last full cake layer.
- Frost the sides and top of cake using remaining frosting.
