• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and coat two 8-inch round cake pans with non-stick baking spray.
• Combine sugar and eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer with whisk attachment.
• Sift the baking soda and flour together then add to the stand mixer bowl and beat until combined.
• Add the oil, buttermilk, food coloring, and vanilla and mix until combined.
• Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
• Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a wire wrack to finish cooling completely.
• Use a serrated knife to level the tops of the cakes, then cut each cake in half to make 4 equal layers.

Frost & Decorate:

• Cream together the butter and cream cheese with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
• Add it the sifted powdered sugar one cup at a time until fully combined. Mix on a high speed for 2-3 minute or until the frosting is light and fluffy and easy to spread.
• Assemble the cake by placing one cake layer on a cake board and topping with a generous amount of the frosting. Spread the frosting and top with another cake layer, repeating until you've used all the cake layers.
• Frost the top of the cake with remaining icing and top with fresh berries.
