Caramel Cake

Caramel Cake

This decadent caramel cake is moist, buttery and full of caramel flavor! Made with homemade caramel, the best vanilla cake ever and a fluffy vanilla buttercream swirled with caramel sauce, you’ll love this caramel layer cake! And while it does take a few steps to put together, believe me when I tell you that it is SO worth it.

Caramel cake usually consists of layer of moist vanilla cake sandwiched together with thick caramel buttercream. It’s super rich but so good. I have been known to eat way too much of it and then feel incredibly ill. But that’s show biz, baby.

Instead of making our caramel cake with a completely caramel buttercream, we made ours with a caramel swirled vanilla buttercream, and let me tell you, it is delicious. This caramel cake require three components:

The Best Vanilla Cake Ever: Our tender and moist vanilla cake is the perfect base for this caramel cake. Lucky for you, we have a step by step tutorial to take any and all guess work out!

Homemade Caramel: Caramel gets a bad rap for being scary to make, but it’s actually pretty easy once you get the hand of it.

Fluffy Vanilla Buttercream: This vanilla buttercream is light a cloud and perfectly creamy aka the perfect consistency to sandwich together your cakes!
