Method

Empty both cake mix packets into a large bowl, make a well in the centre and place the rest of the ingredients in the centre of the well.
Mix with a blender on low speed, for 1-2 min, then increase the speed to medium for another 2-3min, finish mixing with a hand spatula, and scrape down the bowl’s sides and bottom.
Grease a 10 to 12-inch springform cake tin.
Pour the batter into the cake tin and with the spatula, level the batter slightly.
Cover the tin with foil and bake at 180C for 50-60 min. Check to see if the cake is done cooking by inserting a skewer, if the skewer comes out clean without wet batter it should be ready.
While the cake cools, make the icing by use a blender to blend the rest of the icing ingredients until it’s fluffy and well combined.
Frost the cake when it’s completely cool.
