FAQ
Q: Can I make this cake ahead of time?
A: Yes! Bake the cake layers a day before and store in the refrigerator. Frost on the day of serving for the best look.
Q: Can I use a single cake pan?
A: Absolutely, but you’ll need to adjust baking time (add 10–15 minutes).
Q: Can I use store-bought frosting instead?
A: Yes! Use white frosting as a base and add food coloring to create the galaxy effect.
