2.Prepare pink and purple 6” round cakes and allow to cool completely. Slice into wedges and remove a heart shape from each wedge.
3.Place one cup of vanilla cake batter in the bottom of each pans. Place heart wedges into the pans to form at least one ring of cake in each pan. Fill the outer edge and center with cake batter. Ensure that the colored cake pieces are entirely covered with cake batter. Place pans into the oven to bake for 55-60 minutes. Once baked, place cake on a cooling rack for 5 minutes before removing cake from the pan.
4.Allow the cakes to cool completely before leveling. Attach one cake layer to a cake board with a swipe of buttercream. Spread a thin layer of pink buttercream between the two layers and stack the second layer on top of the first. Once the two layers are stacked, cover the entire cake in pink buttercream.
5.Arrange the conversation hearts in twos of matching color and arrange around the bottom of the cake. When once around the cake is complete, start the next row by offsetting the hearts between the ones below. Cover the entire cake with the hearts.
6.Place carnations around the top of the cake, and insert the giant conversation heart into the cake.
7.Cake is best consumed within 2-3 days and should be kept in a sealed container in the fridge.
