What Will I Need to Make the Tea Cakes?

We used a boxed cake mix to keep this easy, Betty Crocker Super Moist French Vanilla.

When I use a box cake mix, I add applesauce instead of the vegetable oil.

It tastes great and makes the cake moist.

You will also need frosting- you can make it or buy it.

Buttercream frosting is the best for these tea cakes.

You will need a sheet pan, mixer, a glass or cookie cutter, frosting kit, frosting spatula and a super cute cake plate, a cake mix, frosting, sprinkles and fresh mint leaves.

These little cakes are perfect for a special occasion, and they’re so easy to make that even beginners can create them.

In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the steps of making tea cakes, and we’ll share some tips on how to make them look beautiful.

Let’s get started!

Step 1: Mix your cake batter ( I love using my KitchenAid Stand Mixer) and pour it onto a sheet pan.

Step 2: Bake your cake, making sure not to over bake it.

Tea cakes are the perfect dessert for Mother’s Day, and they’re also a great choice for any other special occasion.

They’re easy to make, and they taste delicious. In this blog post, we’ve walked you through the steps of making tea cakes, and we’ve shared some tips on how to make them look beautiful.

TIP: After you take your cake out of the oven, cover it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator to cool. This will get the cake extra moist.

Step 3: After the cake cooled, I used a glass to cut out the circles.

The glass didn’t cut really clean edges, a cookie cutter would have given me a cleaner cut.

Cut three circles per tea cake.

Step 4: In a small mixing bowl, Make and color the frosting. We colored half of out frosting pink and left the other half the natural creamy color.

Step 5: Add the frosting to the frosting to the frosting bag, putting the pink frosting on one side of the bag and the white frosting on the other side of the bag.

The two colors will mix slightly and give you a variegated look.

Step 5: Frost 2/3 of the cake circles.

Stack two frosted circles on top of each other.

Then add a plain cake circle to the top.

Using the frosting bag and tip, create a swirl of frosting.

Add the cake sprinkles and mint leaves.

Step 6: Enjoy!
