Fancy pistachio, marscapone and strawberry cake — Australian Gourmet Traveller

We love the decorative frosting of tiered cakes. If you prefer a less ornate cake, forget the fancy piping and simply go for a plain iced version instead. This cake is not all about good looks. The pistachio cake itself is rich, while layers of mascarpone and strawberries add tang and freshness. This stacked beauty feeds a crowd, but can easily be reduced to just one layer to feed fewer.
