Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Spray 4 (8-inch) round pans with cooking spray. Make cake mixes as directed on box using water, oil and eggs. Reserve 1 1/3 cups of the batter in small bowl. Divide remaining batter among the pans. Add 1/2 teaspoon yellow food color to reserved batter until well blended. Spoon 2/3 cup of the yellow batter into the center of each of two of the cakes.
- Bake 28 to 32 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer on low speed until creamy. Beat in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon vanilla and milk, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time until well combined. If frosting is too thick, beat in additional milk, 1 teaspoon at a time. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the frosting in small bowl. Add blue food color to remaining frosting; stir until blended. Add 1/2 teaspoon yellow food color to reserved frosting; stir until blended.
- Using serrated knife, cut rounded top off cakes to make a level surface. Place 1 cake layer without the yellow center, cut side up, on cake plate; spread top with 1/2 cup yellow frosting. Top with yellow-centered cakes, cut side up; spread top with 1/2 cup yellow frosting. Top with remaining yellow-centered cake, cut side down; spread top with remaining 1/2 cup yellow frosting and then top with remaining cake layer, cut side down. Thinly frost side and top of cake with 1 cup of the blue frosting to seal the crumbs. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Frost cake with remaining blue frosting.
- In small bowl, stir together cocoa and vanilla. Using a small food-safe brush and your finger, flick the mixture onto the cake to give cake a speckled look. Place candy eggs on top of cake.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 3 (8-inch) round cake pans with cooking spray; set aside.
- In large bowl, stir together cake mix and malted milk powder with whisk. Add remaining Cake ingredients; beat with electric mixer on low speed until well combined. Divide batter evenly among pans.
- Bake 22 to 28 minutes or until cakes spring back when touched lightly in center. Cool cakes in pans on cooling racks 5 minutes. Turn cakes out onto cooling racks; cool completely, about 30 minutes. Level cakes using large serrated knife or cake leveler, if needed.
- To make Frosting, in large bowl, beat softened butter and powdered sugar with electric mixer on low speed until incorporated; beat on high speed 3 minutes. Add vanilla and salt; beat 1 minute longer. Add blue food color 1 drop at a time, beating until a light blue color is achieved.
- Fill and frost cooled cake. Refrigerate frosted cake 1 hour or until frosting is dry to the touch.
- In small condiment bowl, mix baking cocoa and vanilla. Load unused (new) stiff-bristle paint brush with cocoa mixture. Using fingers, flick loaded brush bristles toward cake creating a splatter pattern. Re-load brush; cover entire cake with chocolate speckles. Refrigerate cake 30 minutes.
- To make Phyllo Nest, heat oven to 375°F. Butter 1 muffin cup in regular-size muffin pan. Tear off 1/3 cup portion of kataifi; place in muffin cup in a circular nest shape. Gently brush phyllo nest with melted butter. Bake 15 minutes or until phyllo is golden brown around edge. Gently remove nest with fork; cool on cooling rack. Attach cooled nest to cake with dot of frosting. Place 3 speckled egg candies inside nest.
