- How to Make a Neapolitan Cake
Full Recipe: preppykitchen....
Sometimes deciding on a flavor is hard, but dessert should be easy! So have a slice of this neapolitan cake and led all the day’s stress float away. I made a neapolitan cake a few years ago and it was totally different, click here to check it out. This time around I wanted to go a bit more traditional, so I whipped up a good old American buttercream divided it in three batches and flavored them with vanilla, strawberry jam, and cocoa powder. The cake layers are based on my favorite vanilla batter but are again divided and flavored with vanilla strawberry and chocolate.
I actually filmed the decoration portion of this video a while ago, before I started making longer format tutorial vidoes. But I had to recreate this cake for a TV segment so I filmed a how to video for the channel! You'll have to excuse the no on camera bite as I needed to bring an uncut cake to set. Trust me it's delicious!
One more thing! If you don't want to make so much buttercream then just skip the multi-colored petal decoration scheme.
This cake has major wow factor! & I bought the cake strips too thanks & please keep making these amazing cake tutorials!
Tip=Cover your working area on the counter with newspaper so that when you're done, just throw away the newspaper and the counter will be clean and free of the flour and sugar
Omg you are amazing. Thank you for all your tutorials. Your recipes are just so perfect and the cake strips are a game changer. I made this today and I have 7 orders from friends. I'm a newbie and have no idea what I'm doing but this was so much fun
can't ... stop ... watching .. your videos ...... literally found you 3 days ago and have already watched 15 + videos and made the vanilla cake! The most moist, delicious and non-boring vanilla cake i have ever made, I am making it for my 3 yo daughters birthday next weekend to thank you! Could you possibly make a carrot cake that you can stack like your 3 layer cakes? I really want something moist but stable ... :)
We had an agreement on Neapolitan ice cream as kids. I ate the strawberry, my sister ate the chocolate and my brother ate the vanilla. Hadn't thought about that in years!
thats really cute
This is SO fancy!
The printed recipe doesn't mention the vanilla extract for the cake. Also would be helpful to put the amount of preserves in the printed recipe.
Wow this is good u just motivated me more. Love u
Do you make dessert with sweet potatoes or yams?
Hi,
have you used nozzles for the petals?
Thanks!
Will I need to triple the recipe if I’m using three 9-inch cake pans?
That is a-ma-zing
When you're baking, are you using a fan-assisted oven or is it a regular oven?
So you so much for the quick reply! :)
What icing sugar do you use for your buttercream mine always turns out grainy?
Why don't you add som jam between the layers?
Yes, for baking, please keep it in metric (grams) rather than volume (cups). We're more of an exact science than savoury cooking.
Link please from the stuff you use that purple band i need that
Just like that dating app...he's got personality too.
Good luck on your show!
I also liked your "...swipe to the left, just like that dating app" HAHAHA

Yasss! 😂🤣😄
_why...?_
_Why must you hurt me in this way?_
_I don't.even use those apps ;(_
Very beautiful. Perfect for a friend birthday 🎂. Keep doing beautiful cakes. Love your channel 👍🏼 by the way I bought the cake strips. 😊
Preppy Kitchen I am very happy you will be on a TV show. You will do fantastic. Congrats 🎊
It looks beautiful but I really wanted to see how it looked inside.
I know it's a late comment but see the video's thumbnail...There is the inside view
@@ifa0908 Thx, of course I saw the thumbnail but it's not the same as seeing it being cut during the video 😊
@@delicateflower1792 oh ys...😀
Hope you're alright - I've just noticed you seem a bit different lately. Also what is to your right that you're looking at? Anyway you do such an amazing job as always 😊😁
Maybe he was recording alone that day so he had to look at the monitor to know if he was on frame
FRANCISCO DURAN there is a second moving camera that zooms and moves with him. He wasnt alone
@@franciscoduran2386 he sounds different, even a little ill or at least rundown in this video. I know I’m replying a year later but came to the comments to see if anyone else had picked up on it, I’m not always great at knowing when people are sick.
I noticed a difference also- he does sound a slight bit more serious than in earlier videos. His work is still incredible and educational!
He probably didn't sleep well or the kids were sick and he's tired.
Wow! I have never baked a cake that turn out the way it did (soft, flavorful and so moist) Yumm! Thank you for sharing your recipe and techniques. I will definitely continue to follow your channel!!! 🤗😄
Oh my goodness, I love this UA-cam. You are great. You are so friendly and you gave us the perfect amount of details. Also loved your tips throughout the recipe!! Simply amazing. Best of luck to you.
Let me tell you, using the cake strips makes a huge difference! I used them on John’s vanilla cake and didn’t have to level or cut off any caramelization, because there wasn’t any. I will only use the cake strips from now on! I will only use John’s recipes from now on 🎂
This is awesome! I just made Neapolitan Brownie Cupcakes! This would be fun to try to make too!
As much vanilla that you use. I think you would appreciate home made vanilla. Just a good Vodka and good Vanilla Beans and time.
I have a large bottle of Everclear that has an obscene amount of vanilla beans in it that have been soaking since 2010. It is as dark as coffee and the smell is heaven. Cost wise, it has saved me a bundle of money.
This was beautiful!! Bombed that you couldn’t slice into it so we could see the layers. Hope you get a shot of it on your TV show tomorrow and share with us...😊✌️
Best Neapolitan cake ever 😍😍😍😍😍 beautifully decorated and I'm sure taste heavenly too. 😋😋😋😋😋
Best recipe ever for Neapolitan cake.😘😘😘all your recipes are awesome...U R THE BEST...wish I could bake under your guidance in person...Love from India💚💜💙💛❤
Very beautiful. You are very talented.
i love that brand of preserves the apricot one if amazing
I am curious why you mix the dry and wet ingredients, instead of creaming the butter with the sugar then adding the ingredients little by little?
This is the reverse creaming method.
Why not mix the whole basic batter and then divide it and add the flavors to them. Less work
Your cakes are amazing. The decorations on this one are a show stopper! Merry Christmas 🎄
What a creative way to decorate a neapolitan cake. All your cakes are too beautiful to cut into, imo.
Beautiful result! Surprised you didn’t mix the cake batter in one bowl then separate into equal thirds and add your flavorings. I might try mixing the cocoa powder pre-bloomed in a little cool coffee instead of milk. Would you think about using powdered freeze dried strawberries like your raspberry powder? Would the color be pinker without having to add artificial?
I love watching your videos, you make amazing beautiful cakes and your instructions are easy to follow, its great you use grams and cup measurements. Thankyou :)
Not a big deal but did anyone else notice when he iced the strawberry layer the outer ring was strawberry and once the vanilla layer went on it was a chocolate ring...
Its beautiful but the amount of frosting kinda makes me feel sick lol how do others eat all that??
How about making a cannoli cake out of Ricotta and cream cheese whipped that would be awesome
I baked this cake for my sister’s Birthday last weekend and it was the talk of the night! As soon as I walked into the restaurant with this cake on hand sitting on it’s cake stand, it started to turn heads all over the place. People came by the table just to ask where we have bought the cake at and how much did it cost. They couldn’t believe me when I told them that I baked it in the morning. I told them I got the recipe for Preppy Kitchen on UA-cam. After we had dinner we cut the cake and everyone loved it! Everyone wanted seconds.
M gonna try it this Sunday for my sis... I really hope my mom doesn't kill me for the 1.3kg of sugar in just the buttercream..😅😅 i was going through comments just to see if anyone tried it... I have made a lot of John's cakes n they are always the shows topper... 😍♥️ To john..
John, you’re killing me here; in every video I watch, I find another reason to love you. Real white (wedding) cake made with egg whites is my favorite, with tons of buttercream! Beautiful, as always! XO
me too
Wow! That looks so yummy! Thank you so much for the recipe. I will try my best to make this cake on my special day 😃
Never stop amazing me, this cake is so beautifully made.
Hello John … do you have a cookbook baking book only about Cakes, Cheesecakes, Brownies and Layered Cakes? And everything sweet inbetween? I love the way you say Sift, Sift, Sift, Whisk, Whisk, Whisk, Mix, Mix, Mix…so endearing 🥰
Hi mr John. I really want to thank you lots and lots you are talented I learn from you lots of things on baking. Just one question pls. About the butter cream how can I make it thicker and heavy but not too much sweet cause every time I do the butter cream it come more soft and very sweet
If you want a thicker buttercream, you can use dry milk powder instead of extra powdered sugar, but experiment with small amounts first to see how well you like it and if you need to adjust the amount.
If you live in a hot climate buttercream frosting is a bit difficult to manage. Chill the mixture for maybe ten minutes before you pipe it. And American buttercream is really sweet. Try the Swiss buttercream recipe it's a bit more mellow.

If you’re up for a challenge, maybe consider doing a series free of the top 8 allergens. The allergy community would love it!
Hi, how do you feel about freeze fried fruit powders for flavouring and colouring? I made the mistake of buying concentrated food flavouring and all I could taste was chemicals, so I'm really looking for advice. Thanks Dawn, Sheffield, UK
I'm trying to make what us Brits call angel cake. It's 3 layers strawberry, vanilla, and lemon. How do I swap out the chocolate layer for a lemon? I ended up doing 3 X 8" tins just halving your full cake recipes. It was a very big cake!
John, I am watching this in October 2022. I have never seen anyone do this before. How very artistic and I am sure delicious. I know you are a math major, so how much increase in ingredients for 8 inch pans, since that's what I have. Many thanks 😊
FABULOUS looking. It looks like you did you a piping/decorating tip for the petals - what size did you use?
I must say how impressed I am to see your work! I've been following you and I love your style when decorating your cakes. I am also glad to hear of your marriage to your Husband. I've been married now for 41 years and it feels like yesterday more then not. I am interested in learning how to use Buttercream to Decorate and Create those beautiful Rose's! Thanks for being my teacher on here! O' By the way! Wats with the Pink Shirt?😁
I mean, is a good luck shirt or something? I notice you love to wear it A Lot!👍💙🙏 Take Care Preppy!💚👍😁
I love watching your video you always simplify things, but will you in future change the format of 6 inch 3 tier cakes . I love to bake and would love to see different types of cake .
Looks delicious and pretty, thanks for the tips,and specially grateful for providing both mesurements
Even though this video is old I am just now seeing it mr.john and in my opinion this is soooooooooo beautiful you are an amazing chef🎉may2023🎉
Things would be a lot less messy if you just sift your icing sugar over a piece of parchment paper, and then pour it into the bowl! LOL! Beautiful cake!
Hi, in the video you say 225g butter for the buttercream, but then add 3 sticks? Isn't 2 sticks 225g?
John this looks absolutely amazing thanks for sharing this recipe with us God/Jesus ❤❤❤
I love this! Very innovative and FUN!!
Can you double this cake? I want to make a 9 inch round cake with three layers. Then I want to make 50 cupcakes for a party. How can I do this?
Am I the only one who noticed that John looked a little off in this video? Lovely as ever - lol - I'm not trying to insult his good looks. 😅 It just seemed like he was out of breath, or more reserved than usual?
After a very long time of searching, I found the ONE video where John isn't wearing a checkered shirt. Jeez
Why do you always prefer using american buttercream in your cakes?
You mean I just watched this 13 minute cake video for you to not slice it so we can’t see what it looks like!?!?!?!?!?
I found the icing very hard to work with, it seemed dry but I did not dare to add too much milk. I used a bit of Dutch coco to darken the chocolate. The chocolate was the worst seemed like it did not want to stick to the other frosting should I have just kept adding more milk ?
Will this work with 9 inch pans?
Your recipe on your blog is missing ingredients and I made it for a huge grad party and 4 times the recipe and it's missing salt and vanilla flavoring!! I am so pissed I spent a lot of money on this cake and it tastes bland.
Thank you for all of the wonderful tips. It helps me improve my baking skills. 🙂
I did the same thing! But I would eat all the chocolate out of the Neapolitan ice cream then say hey we need more Neapolitan from the store my family would get so mad😅😋
This guys voice sounds like he did the voice acting for the hardly brothers on South Park.
Can I use homemade curd instead of sour cream ?
Yes you can. I always to that.
Can we add the whole edd instead of just egg white bcoz I don't care about the white colour , so plz reply me john
I bought cake strips after watching a few of your videos. They are magical!
We’re you sick when you filmed this. Your energy seems down a bit.
New cake strips? :)
Wish me luck I wanna make this for my baby girls birthday 🎂 ❤️
I'm very curious where the lemon juice comes in from the written recipe. It isn't in the video portion. I left it out 🙂
Is all the butter cream made enough for the filling and pedals?
U make delicious cakes...wish we could try one😊😊
vegetarian indian food (;
Did anyone notice that he started filling the second layer with strawberry on the outside... But at 11:15, you can see the chocolate one on the outside
I think I nearly teared up when he didn't take a slice out for us to see the beautiful colors and layers!!!
SARVENTE
I love seeing how he sometimes makes a mess with the dry ingredients. Something I always do! Lol
Hi, huge fan, I've been wondering what's your name?
Why didn’t you just mix all the wet with all the dry and then split the batter into three?
Looks amazing! The whole video I kept thinking of how many dirty dishes this cake required.
I subscribed for the satisfaction and the passive aggressive remarks. Oh and I love cake!😊❤🎂
but its a classic one👍likeyy
Looks yummy as always. Love your videos.
Beautiful! Love your videos! Thank you!
Wow, this is Amazing! I love watching your videos and your funny,very nice though. ☺
Great idea on using one recipe and flavoring the three layers. Swipe left! Lol 😆
👍🏻 🆒 you're really nice, I hardly ever keep cool when I cook. Great channel.
