Special Precautions and Tips:
- For a vegan version, replace the buttermilk with non-dairy milk (such as almond milk or coconut milk) and add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to make a vegan buttermilk.
- To make a gluten-free version, replace the all-purpose flour with gluten-free flour blend.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
