- Then the cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease 2 9" cake pans
- Separate the 4 eggs and set aside
- In a large bowl, cream butter until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Add in vegetable oil and beat for another minute.
- Gradually add in sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating until well combined. Add in egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix together milk, vanilla extract, and sour cream.
- Alternately add dry and wet ingredients into the creamed butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.
- Beat egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Gently fold egg whites into the cake batter until completely combined.
- Divide batter evenly in cake pans.
- Drop about 20 blueberries over each pan of batter.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Allow to cool.
- Lemon Whipped Cream:
- With a mixer on high, beat heavy whipping cream until it begins to thicken. Add in lemon zest, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract, and beat until soft peaks form.
- Add whipped cream cheese to the whipped cream, and beat until well incorporated and stiff peaks form.
- Once cakes are cooled, remove from the cake pans. Place the bottom layer on a flat plate or cake stand and top with about 1/2 cup of lemon curd and about 1 cup whipped cream, spreading almost to the edges.
- Place the second layer on top and top with about 1 cup of lemon curd and 1 1/2 cup whipped cream, spreading almost to the edges, and add raspberries and strawberries.
- If any of the cream has come out of the sides of the cake, use a spatula to smooth the cream around the cake (as you can see in my pictures–the thin layer still allows the edges of the cake to be seen).
- Top with fresh strawberries, blackberries and blueberries.
- Store in the refrigerator
