One of my good friends from work recommended me to a friend of hers, I was both excited and extremely nervous that I'd mess it up. I've made a million cupcakes but never for a wedding; and they were actually the easy part. The cake was the epitome of my anxiety. If you're looking for a quick and easy cake this isn't it.
Step 1: make 2- 8 in cakes and cool completely
Step 2: pipe an edge of frosting on the bottom cake (be sure it's thick enough)
Step 3: spread your filling in the middle (be careful because too much filling will make your cakes shift and leak)
Step 4: place top cake on with the bottom side up
Step 5: dirty ice the cake (a thin layer that looks crumby), let sit in fridge for several hours
Step 6: ice the cake with a thicker layer by starting with a big pile of frosting on top and working your way to the bottom (to finish it off use the wet knife technique)
