I was wondering if I was to make this into a 10” cake with 3 layers, how much should I multiply the recipe by? Add the butter mixture and use an electric mixer on low speed to mix The risk is that the texture of the cake is already quite delicate, so it may make it even more so – so I would suggest using xantham gum (and obviously checking all other ingredients are gluten free) and then also refrigerating before decorating so they can firm up slightly!
