Vanilla Layer Cake

Vanilla Layer Cake

EverydaySweetened

Vanilla layer cake is a classic dessert consisting of sweetened, vanilla-flavored sponge layers typically filled and frosted with buttercream or icing. Made primarily with refined flour, sugar, butter, and eggs, it provides concentrated carbohydrates and saturated fats while being low in protein or fiber. Though often served at celebrations, its high glycemic load and common allergens (gluten, dairy, eggs) warrant mindful consumption for those monitoring blood sugar or food sensitivities.
