Assemble the Cake: Once cakes are completely cooled, level the tops with a serrated knife if necessary. Place one cake layer on a cake stand or serving plate. Spread a layer of creamy vanilla frosting over the top. Top with the second cake layer.

Decorate: Frost the entire cake with a crumb coat of white buttercream. Chill the cake for 15 minutes to set the crumb coat. Cover the cake with cream fondant, creating a smooth surface.
