If cooled cakes are domed on top, use a large serrated knife to slice a thin layer off the tops to create a flat surface. This is called “leveling” the cakes. Discard or crumble over finished cake.
-
Divide the icing into two portions. We will use one portion for first layer of icing all over the cake
-
Gently remove cakes from pans. Place 1 cake layer on your cake stand or serving plate. Evenly cover the top with frosting. Top with 2nd layer and spread remaining frosting all over the top and sides.
-
Refrigerate cake for at least 30-60 minutes before 2nd layer of icing. This helps the cake hold its shape.
-
Bring the cake out. Using another portion, spread the icing to add a smooth coat of buttercream to the surface and sides of the cake. Smooth with a bench scraper and offset spatula.
-
Decorate with fresh mango. Chill until ready to serve. Enjoy!

Cover leftover cake tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
