Easy enough for all beginner bakers

Key Ingredients
Rainbow sprinkles: make sure to use an intensely coloured variety which are bake stable. Many supermarket varieties will loose their colour whilst baking so opt for a bake stable variety.
Jam: store bought or homemade, I love strawberry but you could also use raspberry.
Dairy free yoghurt: acts as our egg replacer. I find soy based products work best.
Dairy free butter: Can be subbed for dairy butter.
Storing tips
The sponge, frosting and caramel can all be made the day before serving. Simply make the sponge and wrap them in plastic wrap. Make the frosting and cover with plastic wrap, then gently re-whip on the day or serving.
