Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.

Mix dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt) in a bowl.

In a separate bowl, combine milk, oil, vanilla, eggs, and yogurt. Mix until smooth.

Combine wet and dry ingredients. Pour into pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool.

Beat softened butter for 2 minutes until fluffy. Gradually add powdered sugar, alternating with cream, until smooth.

Divide frosting into three portions: 70% sky blue, 20% white, 10% black (for details).

Once cakes are cool, level them and stack with frosting between layers.

Apply a crumb coat of blue frosting and chill for 20 minutes.

Frost with the final layer of blue frosting, smooth with a bench scraper.

Pipe Bluey’s eyes, mouth, and fur using white and black frosting.

Chill the Cake Layers: Refrigerating your cake layers before frosting will help avoid crumbs in your frosting.

Make Ahead: You can bake the cake layers a day ahead and store them in an airtight container.

Piping Details: If you’re new to piping, use a toothpick to sketch Bluey’s face on the cake before piping for precision.
