- Gradually add the icing sugar, one-third at a time, beating well after each addition.

- Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate and spread a thick layer of buttercream on top.
- Place the second layer on top and spread the remaining buttercream over the top and sides of the cake.
- Decorate with additional rainbow sprinkles.
