Preheat oven to 350C. Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix all wet ingredients in a medium bowl.
Combine wet and dry ingredients until just combined. Grease 3 8-inch round cake pans, and line bottoms with parchment paper (cut some out of your parchment roll).
Pour batter into the pans and bake until an inserted toothpick comes out clean, about 35 minutes.
Cool cake, and coat with a crumb coat of frosting. Coat a thin layer, a thick layer will make the fondant going over it bumpy.
Cover cake with fondant and decorate, following the directions outlined in the rest of the blog post.
