Chocolate Strawberry Birthday Cake

Chocolate Strawberry Birthday Cake

The inside of the cake is devils food with fresh strawberry filling.  The frosting is milk chocolate meringue buttercream.

The pictures above show the four steps you need to take to decorate your birthday cake.

1. Cut cake rounds so they are even, then add a layer of frosting.  Then add a layer of your filling of choice.

2. Do this with each layer.

3. Add the crumb coat layer of frosting.  The crumb coat layer helps to make the cake frosting look even.  After the crumb coat you must refrigerate your cake at least a half hour to an hour.

4. Remove cake from refrigeration and add final layer of frosting.  Try to make it as smooth and even as possible.

5. Decorate as you wish!
