Claire Saffitz Makes Confetti Cake | Dessert Person. Get ready to party! And by party, we mean stay at home and be safe. But fortunately, you need no special occasion to make this delicious, celebratory, kid-friendly, and deeply nostalgic confetti cake. A tender white birthday cake studded with rainbow sprinkles and covered in smooth, tangy cream cheese frosting, it tastes like childhood (which is to say, better than the box). We took a hiatus but Claire and her crew are back with Season II of Dessert Person -- check out this first episode!#ClaireSaffitz #DessertPerson #CakeSpecial Equipment:Stand mixerThree 9-inch cake pansIngredients:Confetti Cake:Butter for the pans5 1/2 cups cake flour (23.3 oz/ 660g)2 1/2 cups sugar (16.4 oz / 466g)4 1/2 teaspoons baking powder (0.63 oz / 18g)1 1/2 teaspoons Diamond Crystal kosher salt (0.16 oz / 5g)3/4 teaspoon baking soda3 sticks unsalted butter (12 oz / 340g), at room temperature1 1/2 cups buttermilk (12.7 oz / 360g)1/3 cup neutral oil, such as vegetable or grapeseed (2.6 oz / 75g)3 large eggs (5.3 oz / 150g), at room temperature6 large egg whites (7.4 oz / 210g), at room temperature1 tablespoon vanilla extract1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)1/2 cup store-bought rainbow sprinkles (3.3 oz / 93g), plus more for decoratingClassic Cream Cheese FrostingVideo Breakdown:0:00 Start0:11 Intro to Confetti Cake 0:32 Show Intro / Animation0:59 Funfetti Cake (Birthday Cake) Ingredients2:42: Special Equipment / Ingredients4:14 Mix The Dry Ingredients5:53 Prep The Pans / Preheat Oven10:48 Fill Pans & Baking12:46 How To Make Cream Cheese Frosting15:16 Level The Layers17:05 Assemble The Cake21:10 Cake Frosting / Claire Makes Birthday Cake23:37 Outro / Tasting Confetti Cake24:26 Felix Cameo24:38 Archie DebutFind Dessert Person Online: https://www.dessertperson.comClaire Saffitz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/csaffitz/Dessert Person Merchandise: https://www.dessertperson.com/buystuffFor Other Penguin Random House Books: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/Dessert Person CookbookPhotographer: Alex LauFood Stylist: Sue LiProp Stylist: Astrid ChastkaVideo Series:Producer/Director: Vincent CrossCamera Operator: Calvin RobertsonSound Engineer/Music: Michael GugginoEditor: Brooke ShumanAnimation Credits:Character Designer/Animator: Jack SherryCharacter Rigger: Johara DuttonBackground/Prop Designer: M.
