Fancy cake...minus fondant

So this weekend also saw the first attempt at a fancy cake. I was aiming to go for broke and have a fondant finish, but I sometimes neglect to read the label of what I am purchasing (long story)

But here is the first layer of an almond cake with coconut butter cream frosting and topped with strawberries. (it's ok to drool, no one will judge)









This is the top view of the first layer












So the second layer is on and the entire thing is covered in coconut butter cream frosting. It was ready and waiting for fondant when I discovered I had bought icing and not fondant...I'm a winner...









This last photo is the cake again from a bird's eye view. And P.S. it was a really good cake! Next time, there will be fondant!!
