Instructions

Preheat oven and prepare pans: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease/line two 8-inch cake pans.
Prepare dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pudding mix.
Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, beat sugar, eggs, oil, vanilla, blueberry emulsion, and buttermilk. Gradually incorporate dry ingredients.
Fold in blueberries: Add blueberry puree and frozen blueberries to the batter.
Bake: Divide batter into pans and bake for 30–35 minutes. Cool completely.
Make buttercream: Beat butter and cream cheese, then add powdered sugar, vanilla, and blueberry puree. Beat until fluffy.
Assemble: Layer cake with buttercream, frost the outside, pipe rosettes on top, and garnish with blueberries and ganache.

Notes

For a richer color, add a small amount of red food coloring to the batter.
Ensure cakes are completely cooled before frosting to prevent melting.
Experiment with different fruit fillings or coulis for varied flavors.
