I made this cake recently for my husband’s promotion to Major in the USAF. The decoration was an afterthought, but I think it turned out pretty good, if a little busy.

The white cream was vanilla whipped cream stabilized with cream cheese and the red was a reduction of puréed raspberries, strawberries, and peaches. The cake itself was also made with raspberry puree but the color and flavor was kind of lost, esp when paired with the intense reduction / jam flavor.

Thoughts?
