Instructions
 

For The Cake

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Cut parchment paper circle and place in the bottom of your cake pans.
  • In a bowl add the flour, baking powder, and salt then set aside.
  • Using a stand mixer, add your sugar, butter, and vanilla and mix slowly till combined, then mix in the eggs.
  • Slowly add ¼ of the flour mixture and ¼ of the milk repeat 3 more times until all the mixture and milk are gone.
  • Pour into your pans and bake for 25-30 minutes until you insert a toothpick in the center and it comes out clean.
  • Let them sit for 10 minutes then turn over on the racks to cool.
  • Cakes must be fully cooled before icing.

For The Filling

  • Slice the fruit for filling as paper thin as you can get them.

For The Whipped Cream Topping

  • Set the metal mixing bowl and whisk from the stand mixer in the refrigerator 45 minutes -to an hour before using or the freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Add ingredients and whisk on low to start, turning up the speed as the cream starts to form.
  • Once you have stiff peaks, stop mixing or you will end up with a soupy mess that will not form.

Assembling The Cake

  • Add the whipped cream to the top of the bottom cake and them place fruit filling slices all over the cream.
  • Add the whipped cream filling to the top of the fruit and add the second layer.
  • Spread the whipped cream as you would normally to frost a cake, or if you have a piping bag pipe the whipped cream on the cake for a more polished look.

Notes

I have made it several times since I made the video and each time it tasted great and I think got better at decorating too.
