Preparation Steps
1
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and flour two cake pans.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3
In another bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
5
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely on a wire rack.
6
For the frosting, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Gently fold in the stiffly whipped heavy cream.
7
Layer the cake layers with the cream cheese frosting, covering the top and sides evenly. Smooth the frosting.
8
Decorate the top of the cake with macarons of various colors, arranging them artfully in a circular pattern. Place edible pearls between them to enhance the decoration.
9
Refrigerate the cake for at least one hour before serving to allow the frosting and decoration to set.
