Raspberry chocolate layer cake
Finally catching up on some old posts!I love cake (who doesn't) and I think layer cakes are the prettiest kind of cake there is. The day of our work X-mas party was also our co-worker Julie's birthday - so an excellent excuse to attempt this amazing creation.

| Raspberry chocolate layer cake |
Making the cake:
I used Lorraine's 'I can't believe you made that' cake recipe and (as usual) it worked out perfectly! Instead of making one cake, I doubled the recipe and made three.
Making the fillings and frosting:
I used the three frosting recipes from Sweetapolita's divine cake blog.- Marshmallow Cream Cheese Filling (hurray for discovering Marshmallow fluff at Woollies!!)
- Pink Whipped Vanilla Cream Filling
- Chocolate Frosting
Decoration:
As per Sweetapolita's instructions I layered the fillings in between each cake, adding fresh raspberries to the pink whipped cream layer. I frosted the outside with teh chocolate frosting and added some more fresh raspberries to finish. Yum!
