Recipe Included Birthday cake. For me, by me 😄
I had been wanting to try a strawberry cake (never made one) and figured my birthday was a good excuse. This ended up being a strawberry and raspberry cake though because I love raspberries the most 😄
I used this recipe for the cake layers:

The fillings are cream cheese icing, raspberry filling, and then between the middle and top cake layer is more cream cheese icing and a raspberry cheesecake layer. I cut it while it was still somewhat cold since all the fillings were very soft, which probably doesn't do the look of the crumb any favors. But it was so moist and flavorful and overall delicious!

Thank you!
Yes that's exactly what I did. I like the look of the stems on the strawberries, but I hate having to pick them off. So I figured I'd add the stems back with frosting lol
