Prepare all the ingredients and have them ready before starting the batter.
Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together.
Beat the sugar and eggs together, on high speed, until light and fluffy, about 5-7 minutes.
With mixer running, drizzle in the oil and beat until well combined.
Add the zest.
Alternating, beat in dry ingredients and milk. Start and end with dry ingredients.
Divide the batter between the 3 cake pans. Bake for 18-20 minutes. Do a toothpick test to make sure its done.
Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes and transfer onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Putting The Cake Together:
Spread jam between the cake layers. Place the cake with jam in the refrigerator and cool for about 30-45 minutes.
Once the cake is cold, frost it using a rubber spatula. Even out the frosting with the a metal icing spatula. (to get even surface)
Decorate with blackberries.
