• *Line pans with parchment paper or wax paper and grease sides of pan for perfection. This releases the cake from the pan without scraping it.**Mix just until combined. Do not want to over mix

Frosting

• For Frosting pour 32 oz. whipping cream in bowl

• Whip until stiff peaks are formed. You can create a filling if you'd like. I just use the frosting as a filling too. To get all 4 layers, you will need to cut the 2, 10" cakes in half.
