buttermilk cake with rhubarb buttercream and cardamom cream

Buttermilk Cake with Rhubarb Buttercream | Sarah Kieffer | The Vanilla Bean Blog

This buttermilk cake was made in celebration of Saveur Magazine’s 20th birthday.

When it comes to cake I only think in chocolate, but I got the idea of rhubarb buttercream in my head and thought it would pair better with a white buttermilk cake (although, after eating it, I think it could go either way). 

Rhubarb Buttercream

I was really happy with how this buttercream turned out, which I adapted from Martha Stewart. Usually this type of frosting is too sweet and rich for me, but the tart rhubarb balances thing so well. I did need to use just a few drops of food coloring to get the frosting looking pink. The rhubarb will leave a few tiny strings in the frosting, but I liked how they looked.

I’ve had good luck with this buttercream, but it did break on me once. If you have the same trouble, here are some great tips from The Kitchn on how to save a broken buttercream.

Cardamom Cream
My family was split down the middle about this cream; half of them loved how it complemented the rhubarb flavor, and the other half wanted it just to be rhubarb buttercream in the layers. I personally think either way would make a delicious cake.

If you choose to omit it, you’ll have enough buttercream to frost the cake, but may not have a lot left over for any pipping or decorating. This recipe will give you quite a thick layer of cream in between the layers, so if you’d like less, don’t use all of it. Also, I liked 2 teaspoons of cardamom here, but 1 teaspoon will give a more subtle flavor.

Ingredients

Cake

  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups 284g all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups 297g sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 pound 2 sticks; 227g unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into 1-inch pieces

Rhubarb Buttercream

  • 2 cups 16 ounces rhubarb, chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup water
  • food coloring optional, see note
  • 4 egg whites room temperature
  • 1 1/4 cups 248g granulated sugar
  • pinch salt
  • 3/4 pound 3 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Cardamom Cream

  • 8 ounces 226g cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup 99g granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1-2 teaspoons cardamom see note

Instructions

  • Adjust an oven rack to the middle position. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Butter and flour three 8 by 2-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk the eggs, egg yolks, vanilla, sour cream, and buttermilk.
  • In a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt on low until combined. With the mixer running on low, add the butter one piece at a time, beating until the mixture resembles coarse sand. With the mixer still running on low, slowly add half the wet ingredients. Increase the speed to medium and beat until incorporated, about 30 seconds. with the mixer running on low, add the rest of the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Increase the speed to medium and beat for 20 seconds (the batter may still look a little bumpy). Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl, and use a spatula to mix the batter a few more times.
  • Divide the batter into the prepared pans and smooth the tops. Tap the pans gently on the counter 2 times to help get rid of any bubbles. Bake 17 to 29 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through, until the buttermilk cake is golden brown and a wooden skewer or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Transfer the pans to a wire rack and let cool for 30 minutes. Turn the cakes out onto the rack, remove the parchment paper, and let cool completely before frosting.

Rhubarb Buttercream:

  • Place the rhubarb and water in a medium sauce pan. Bring to a boil, and then let simmer for 15-18 minutes until rhubarb is tender and most the water has evaporated. Place the rhubarb in a food processor, and process until it is a smooth purée. If you’d like to add food coloring to brighten the color of the purée, add a few drops now, and then pulse the rhubarb a bit more, until the food coloring is evenly distributed. Set the purée aside to cool.
  • Place the egg whites, sugar, and pinch of salt in a heatproof mixer bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Whisk until sugar dissolves and mixture registers 160 degrees on a candy thermometer. Remove the bowl from the heat, and using a whisk attachment, whisk the mixture on medium speed for 5 minutes. Increase the mixer speed to medium-high, and then whisk until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 6 minutes. Reduce the speed to medium again, and add the butter, 1 piece at a time, whisking well after each addition. When the butter has been completely incorporated, switch to the paddle attachment. With the mixer running on low, add the vanilla, and then the cooled rhubarb puree, and beat until smooth, 3 to 5 minutes. Use immediately, or cover, and refrigerate.

Cardamom Cream:

  • Beat the cream cheese and butter on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Gradually add the sugar and beat until smooth, about 3-4 minutes. Add the vanilla and cardamom, and mix until combined.

To assemble:

  • Place one layer of the buttermilk cake on a serving plate. Put half of the cardamom cream on top of the layer, spread evenly over the cake, and then top with another layer of cake. Add the rest of the cardamom cream and spread evenly over the second layer of cake, and then top with the final layer. Frost the cake with the rhubarb buttercream.

    The cake looks perfectly delicious. Unfortunately rhubarb is not readily available in my area. I love cardamom so wondering if a strawberry or raspberry buttercream would be a good option? Thanks

    I had to tell you that I made this cake for a friend’s birthday. Since it was a chilly night, I decided to add cardamom for a warmer vibe. I also used a simple rhubarb cardamom syrup and rhubarb curd in between the layers and the result was outstanding. I plan to make it agin this weekend for mother’s day 🙂

    I’ve made this cake twice now and it is divine! The first time I followed the instructions as written and only had the cardamom creme between the layers. I loved the cardamom creme, but I wanted more rhubarb flavor. So the next time I made the cake, I put both cardamom creme and the rhubarb buttercream between the layers and it was exactly what I wanted. I had more than enough buttercream for this since I didn’t decorate the cake. Also, I made sure to use only red rhubarb stalks and my icing turned out bright pink with no food coloring. Thank you for the wonderful recipe!

    Hello,
    I want to make this for the weekend, but Wednesday is when I have the best time to do it. How would I go about freezing and defrosting the cake (with or without the frosting?), or will it be ok refrigerated for a few days? Also am curious if I can replace the sour cream in the cake with plain Greek yogurt.
    Thank you!

      Sorry about that! It should say bake the cake in three cake pans – I fixed it in the instructions. I did a minor tweak on the recipe last week and somehow that instruction got messed up. If you don’t have three cake pans, you can cut two layers in half and just use a smaller amount of cardamom cream in between each layer, or don’t cut the two cake layers in half and put a very thick layer of cardamom cream in between. Let me know if you have any other questions!!

    Wow, this is just gorgeous. And it’s delicious too!

    I did a test run today of the cake only, one layer, in gluten-free form using the “whole grain” version of Cup4Cup flour. I baked it for about 33 minutes (this longer baking time is typical).

    I followed the directions carefully, especially the steps with the stand mixer, in order to get maximum fluffiness. It turned out SO WELL. Was not dense at all, and has a wonderful flavor. No one could believe it was gluten free.

    Just wanted to mention this for the gluten free bakers out there since many recipes don’t translate as well as this one did, even with Cup4Cup.

      Lindsay – you can cut the cake into 12-16 pieces (16 will be pretty small). I haven’t made this particular cake recipe into cupcakes, so if you have a favorite yellow or white cupcake recipe, you could use that, and then just top them with the rhubarb buttercream. I hope that helps! Let me know how it turns out for you. -Sarah

      Sunday, April 5, 2015 at 7:51 pm

      Hi Misha, I’m sorry you had trouble with the cake! It’s possible the butter and/or the eggs weren’t beaten long enough. If you are up for experimenting, you could try swapping out a cup of all-purpose flour for a cup of cake flour. I’ve found substituting a bit of cake flour often will help the texture be a bit more fluffy. I haven’t tried it with this particular recipe, so I can’t promise it will work! If you are worried about trying it again, I’ve heard this cake from Zoe Bakes is quite good: http://zoebakes.com/2014/06/24/blueberry-cake/ You could pair it with the rhubarb buttercream. I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.

    I loved this recipe. I opted for the lesser amount of cardamom (actually only used 1/2 of a teaspoon since I only hoped for a subtle hint rather than a dominance or competition with that rhubarb tang. So glad I froze some of this spring’s rhubarb – I’m not quite ready to welcome the cooler weather yet. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

    Moving, no matter what the circumstances are, has a little air of sadness surrounding it. There are always the memories… You’ll hold onto the good and soon forget the bad. It’s amazing how the mind works like that.

    This cake is stunning and one that I would just adore. Unlike you, I prefer fruit and bright and tart over chocolate (though I will never turn away a dessert just because it’s chocolate).

    Loved the collaboration with Saveur. Just wonderful.
