Total Time 20 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • Four 3-inch mini vanilla sponge cakes either from a store or made at home

  2. Using a spoon, hollow out a 1-inch well in the center of each mini cake.
  3. For each cake, fill the wells with the buttercream, alternating colors.
  4. Lightly frost each cake with white buttercream so the color underneath is hidden.
