Directions
1. To Make the Cake – Preheat your oven at 170c. Prepare the small baking pan. Set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients. In a medium bowl mix together wet ingredients. Gently fold the mixture with a spatula to incorporate. Slowly pour the batter into prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 mins or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely.
2. Blueberry Filling — Place the blueberries in a saucepan with lemon juice and water. Cook on medium low heat for 2 minutes. Add cornstarch, Suncore Foods® Indigo Blueberry Powder, and maple syrup to the blueberries. Cook on low – the mixture will thicken and looks glossy. Remove from heat Let cool completely.
3. Buttercream — Whip butter in the stand mixer bowl with the paddle attachment, on medium to high speed for about 2 minutes. Stop mixer and add the sifted powdered sugar. Mix on low speed until incorporated. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl and then add in 1 tbsp of coconut cream (if you’re looking for thinner consistency, add more coconut cream) mix on high speed for 2-3 minutes until smooth. Color the buttercream with Suncore Foods® Powders.
