Dad's Birthday Cake!

I do a lot of birthday cake, it seems.



My dad is a huge fan of whipped cream and fruit. So! I did a dark chocolate cake. In between the cake layers there is a layer of ganache, sliced strawberries, and whipped cream frosting. The top is just whipped cream with strawberries. The flavors really came together - and I even managed to get the whipped cream to somewhat stabilize! It was my first attempt with whipped cream frosting, and the first  time I tried it was a complete failure (I think I overwhipped it) but my second try went much better.
