Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12x17 inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
- Cream together the softened butter, honey, and granulated sugar until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla bean paste until the batter is smooth and aerated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, stirring until just combined.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Allow the cake to cool completely on a wire rack.
- Prepare the frosting by creaming together softened butter and strained Greek yogurt, then gradually beating in powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until velvety.
- Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled cake using an offset spatula.
- Decorate with natural food coloring, sprinkles, and fresh berries.
- Chill the cake in the refrigerator for 2 hours to ensure frosting stability before serving.
