Then I made a double-decker Strawberry Lemon Checkerboard Cake. It has a 6-inch strawberry cake with cream cheese frosting and a 6-inch lemon cake with lemon frosting.

I used 4 inch and 2 inch biscuit cutters to cut circles then rearrange them with alternating colors. I colored the cream cheese frosting pink and added a 1/4 teaspoon of strawberry extract.

I used some of the lemon frosting to crumb coat the sides of the cake then used an open tip to pipe on a design. It’s so easy yet this little cake makes a big impression!
