Steps:
- Move oven rack to lowest position (remove other racks). Heat oven to 350°F. In extra-large glass or metal bowl, beat cake mix and cold water with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 1 minute.
- Pour about 3 cups batter into ungreased 10-inch angel food (tube) cake pan. Into small bowl, pour about 3/4 cup batter; stir in food color and peppermint extract until blended. Carefully spoon red batter over white batter in pan. Carefully spoon remaining white batter over red batter and swirl with knife.
- Bake 40 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched. Immediately turn pan upside down onto heatproof funnel or bottle. Cool completely, about 2 hours. Loosen cake by running long metal spatula along edge of pan. Place serving plate upside down on pan. Turn plate and pan over; remove pan.
- In small bowl, mix powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon milk; stir in enough remaining milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, until thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle over cake; top with crushed candies.

PEPPERMINT FROSTED VANILLA BEAN PLAID CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray four 8-inch square baking pans with nonstick baking spray.
- Add the granulated sugar and vanilla bean paste to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
- Add the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Stir on low to combine. Add the vanilla bean sugar to the bowl and stir until well combined. Add the butter and mix on medium-low speed until you have a fine crumb texture, about 3 minutes.
- Whisk together the eggs, sour cream and oil in a small mixing bowl until smooth. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and beat on medium speed until just combined. Be sure to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed to make sure everything is incorporated. Slowly add the milk and mix on low until just combined. (The batter will be very liquid.) Remove a quarter of the batter (15 ounces or scant 2 cups) to one of the prepared baking pans and set aside. Remove another quarter of the batter to a mixing bowl. Add a couple drops of red gel food coloring to the mixing bowl and stir to combine until you have a deep red color. Scrape this batter into another prepared baking pan. Add about half the amount of red gel food coloring to the remaining batter in the mixing bowl and mix until you have a medium pink color. Divide this pink batter between the two remaining prepared cake pans. (There should be about 15 ounces in each.)
- Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cake comes out clean and the cakes have not turned golden brown, 12 to 18 minutes. Let cool completely in the pans on a wire rack.
- Tint 1/2 cup of peppermint buttercream frosting with red gel food coloring to get a deep red color, and set aside 1/2 cup of white. Tint the remaining frosting a light pink color. Place the red frosting in a piping bag fitted with a flat tip for wide stripes, and the white frosting in a piping bag fitted with a flat tip that has 4 to 5 holes in it, for parallel thin stripes.
- Trim each cake to about 7-inches square so any browned or uneven edges are removed. Cut each cake into at least six 1-inch strips. (If you didn't have to trim your cake much you might get more; this will just be bonus cake snacks for you.)
- Place four strips of cake side-by-side, alternating pink and white. Spread about 1/4 cup pink frosting atop these and spread in an even layer. Place one red stripe atop each pink one, and one pink stripe atop each white one. Spread another 1/4 cup pink frosting atop this layer. Repeat topping the red stripes with pink ones, and the pink strips with white ones. Add another 1/4 cup pink frosting and spread evenly. Repeat topping the pink stripes with red ones and the white stripes with pink ones. Spread 1/4 cup pink frosting in an even layer and place a final layer of pink strips atop the red ones and white strips atop the pink ones. Frost the entire outside of the cake with a thin even layer of pink frosting for a crumb coat. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes, then cover the outside with a thicker layer of pink frosting. Use a bench scraper to smooth out the sides and make the angles crisp.
- Beginning with the red buttercream and working crosswise on the cake, pipe three evenly-spaced straight lines up one side of the cake, across the top, and down the opposite side. Switch to the white buttercream and pipe two additional sets of lines, running in between (and parallel to) the red lines.
- Now working lengthwise on the cake, pipe two evenly spaced straight lines with the red buttercream up one side, across the top, and down the other side of the entire cake. Follow with one set of white lines in the center.
- Switch back to the red buttercream and pipe 2 stripes running horizontally around the sides of the cake. Switch back to the white and pipe a set of white stripes running between the red.
- Combine the butter, confectioners' sugar and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or in a large bowl if using a handheld electric mixer). Mix on low speed until mostly incorporated. Add the peppermint extract, then increase the speed to medium-high and beat until smooth. Use immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container up to 3 days. Allow to come to room temperature before using, then beat on medium-high speed until smooth.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Use a fine-mesh sieve to sift together flour and 3/4 cup superfine sugar 4 times.

- Invert pan on its legs or over the neck of a glass bottle, and let cool completely, about 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, combine the berries, lemon juice, and remaining 1/4 cup superfine sugar in a small nonreactive bowl. Set aside to macerate while the cake is cooling, about 1 hour. In a separate bowl, stir together the sour cream, confectioners' sugar, and remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla.
- Carefully run a long offset spatula or knife around the inner and outer perimeter of the pan to release cake. Invert onto serving platter. Serve with macerated berries and sweetened sour cream.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Butter a 25 x 20cm baking tin, and line the base with baking parchment. Stack a sheet of baking parchment over a sheet of foil, then fold in half so the parchment is facing out. Use this to divide the tin into three sections crosswise, each about 8cm wide.
- Melt the butter, remove from the heat and set aside. Put the sugar and eggs in a large heatproof bowl over a pan of just simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Beat using an electric whisk until really thick and pale, about 4-5 mins.
- Add a fifth of the mixture to the melted butter and mix to combine. Pour the butter mixture into the egg mixture, and carefully fold in along with the flour. Divide the mixture between three bowls. Leave one bowl of batter plain, then fold a drop each of pink food colouring and raspberry extract into the second bowl, and a drop each of yellow food colouring and lemon extract into the third bowl.
- Carefully pour one of the batters into each of the three sections in the prepared tin. Bake for 12-15 mins until cooked through, or a skewer inserted into the middle of the cakes comes out clean. Leave to cool slightly in the tin, then carefully transfer the three cakes to a wire rack and leave to cool completely.
- To make the buttercream, beat the butter, sugar, vanilla and milk together for 5 mins with an electric whisk until pale and creamy. To assemble the cake, put the plain sponge on a board and spread with half the buttercream. Top with the raspberry sponge, then spread with the remaining buttercream and top with the lemon sponge. Trim the sides so they're straight, even and neat.
- To make the fondant icing, sift the sugar into a bowl and mix with 1½-3 tbsp water until you have a thick, droppable icing. Transfer a quarter of the icing to a second bowl, and mix in a drop of pink food colouring. Transfer the pink icing to a piping bag.
- Spread the plain fondant icing over the top of the lemon sponge, making sure it doesn't drip down the sides. Pipe thin lines of pink icing on top across the width of the cake, space apart. Drag a cocktail stick through the lines lengthways to create a marbled effect. Leave to set slightly, then slice the cake into six even rectangles.
