R's Birthday cake 2024

R drew me a picture of a cake he wanted for his birthday. It was quite an elaborate three-layer cake with three different flavors inside.

Lemon on the bottom, chocolate in the middle and red velvet on the top. 

Because I didn't want to do everything at once and at the last minute, I made one layer at a time and froze each one to make assembly much easier 

I used half this recipe for a 9" cake pan for the bottom lemon layer

I used half this recipe for a 9" cake pan for the top red velvet layer

I also used the frosting recipe for the outside of the cake. 

I had some whipped chocolate ganache that also went between the chocolate layer and the red velvet layer.
