5. Add in the milk, gin and tonic and stir in slowly until combined
6. Sieve your flour and add in two parts mixing until smooth.
7. Add some pink food gel, split the mixture equally into three bowls and add a little more to each one to create three different shades of pink.
8. Fill each tin and bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes – test the cake after 30 minutes, a skewer should come out clean, remember everyone’s ovens vary slightly.
9. Once baked, remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin for 30 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. In a bowl, mix together the icing sugar and 250g butter until pale and smooth. Add the gin and lemonade and pipe between each layer and smooth around the top and outside.
