Ape Amma Icing Recipe
This classic Sri Lankan Ribbon Cake is a fun, pastel colored, swirled vanilla cake, perfect for birthdays and celebratory moments in your life! It’s soft, light, buttery and tastes absolutely delicious. It’s a great base for an easy pastel Easter cake too!
Last time I shared my classic vanilla cake recipe with plenty of tips on how to get perfect results when making homemade vanilla cake. And I did say that vanilla cake was the base for another classic Sri Lankan cake – this Sri Lankan Ribbon Cake (Swirled Pastel Cake)! Plus, I’m also sharing a simple way to decorate this cake as a pastel Easter cake!
A Sri Lankan ribbon cake is a classic that almost never fails to make an appearance at birthdays and special occasions! It’s a vanilla cake that’s been colored with pastel colors (usually a combination of pink, yellow and/or green), and the batter is either swirled together OR layered on top of each other for a layer cake. Traditionally it’s frosted with plain vanilla frosting, but you can color the buttercream frosting as well.

While it’s routine to make this ribbon cake as a layer cake with a thin layer of vanilla frosting sandwiching the cake layers, I really love serving this pastel cake as a sheet cake instead! This creates the perfect ratio of cake to frosting too, and you can serve a larger crowd as well.
But if you prefer to serve this ribbon cake (pastel cake) as a round cake instead, you can easily adapt the recipe for an 8 inch or 9 inch layer cake too (instructions are in the recipe).
The vanilla buttercream frosting that I’ve used here is this recipe that I shared with you a guys a few weeks ago. This vanilla frosting is buttery, creamy, fluffy with the perfect amount of sweetness and great vanilla flavor. I only spread a fairly thin layer of the vanilla frosting on the cake to balance the sweetness, but you can adjust that to your preference of course.

This cake is so versatile when it comes to decorating. Since this cake is very frequently featured as a birthday cake or a celebratory cake, the decorating can be as simple as the one that I’ve shared here, or as colorful as you want it to be! Below are a few options for decorating this pastel colored marbled vanilla cake.
It’s simple to turn this sheet cake into a beautiful swirled pastel Easter cake. All you need is food coloring, and some decorating tips, and your favorite Easter candy!
Buttercream for the pastel Easter cake– I used yellow and pink pastel colors for the buttercream, and created a gorgeous swirled pattern on the sides and on top of the cake.

Decorating the pastel Easter cake– I used green buttercream to create grass patches on the cake(with Wilton tip #234, but you can use #233 as well). The flowers were piped with the pink and yellow buttercream, using Wilton tip #18.
I also used Cadbury mini eggs, and caramel eggs (for different sized eggs), as well as my MUST HAVE Easter candy – Easter Lindt bunnies! You’re welcome to use YOUR favorite Easter chocolate and candy instead.
For the presentation, I placed the cake on a larger cake tray (or serving tray) and surrounded it with edible grass, and MORE Easter eggs. This is a simple yet gorgeous way to really make this cake festive, fun, pretty and most importantly, delicious!
