Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour two 8-by-3-inch cake pans. In the bowl of an electric mixer using the paddle attachment on medium speed, cream together butter, sugar, and vanilla seeds until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Sift together flour and baking powder. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients, alternating with milk, starting and ending with flour; scrape down sides twice. Transfer batter to a large bowl.
- In the clean bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk egg whites with pinch of salt on low speed until foamy. Increase speed to high, and continue to whisk until stiff (but not dry) peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk one-third of the beaten whites into the batter to lighten the mixture. Using a large rubber spatula, fold remaining whites into the lightened batter. Divide the batter equally among the prepared pans. Bake until golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the cakes comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove the pans to a rack to cool for 5 minutes. Invert the cakes onto the wire rack to cool completely.
- If cakes are not level, use a serrated knife to trim tops off. Carefully slice each cake horizontally into two equal layers, about 3/4 inch thick. (You will have four layers.) To assemble, place one sliced layer on an 8-inch cardboard cake round. Spread with 1/4-inch of frosting. Repeat with remaining layers, placing the final layer bottom-side up. Lightly coat the assembled cake with a thin layer of frosting to protect against crumbs in the frosting. Finish with remaining frosting. Garnish with candied lemon zest. Serve immediately, or keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

- Preheat oven to 350˚. Butter an 18x13" rimmed baking sheet and line with parchment paper. Butter parchment and dust with flour, tapping out excess flour.
- Heat chocolate, coffee, and cocoa powder in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water (water should not touch bottom of bowl), stirring until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Let cool, then whisk in eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Using an electric mixer on low speed, mix salt, baking powder, baking soda, and 2 cups flour in a large bowl just to combine. Add brown sugar, vegetable oil, ½ cup butter, and ½ cup chocolate mixture and beat on medium speed until flour is evenly distributed and mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes. Add remaining chocolate mixture in 2 additions, scraping down sides and bottom of bowl and beating until smooth after each addition. Scrape batter into prepared sheet and smooth top.

- Preheat the oven to 180º C. Grease 2 x 15cm baking tins and line with parchment paper. Cream together the butter, castor sugar and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. In two additions, add the flour and buttermilk, starting and ending with the flour. With the mixer on a low speed, whisk until just combined. Do not over mix as this develops the gluten resulting in a tough crumb.
- Divide the batter evenly into the prepared tins and press the raspberries firmly into the batter. Bake for 30-35 minutes until lightly golden and a test skewer comes out clean. Allow the cake to rest for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Place the butter, crème fraîche and vanilla in a mixing bowl fitted with a paddle attachment. Whisk until creamy and pale in colour. Sift in the confectioners’ sugar and salt. Beat together until well combined. Add the lemon juice and food colouring, giving it a thorough final whisk to ensure the colour is evenly incorporated.
