Whip until smooth.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Assemble the Cake:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-15\">Place one layer of cake onto serving plate or cake stand and top with about one cup of lemon\u00a0cream cheese frosting. \u00a0Repeat with second cake layer, more frosting and then last layer of cake.\u00a0 Crumb coat and frost cake with remaining frosting. \u00a0Decorate with lemon slices, additional blueberries and edible flowers, if desired.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-16\">Store in refrigerator. \u00a0Serve at room temperature.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n\t<div class=\"tasty-recipes-notes\">\n\t\t<h3 data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"h3-color.color h3-transform.text-transform\">Notes<\/h3>\n\t\t<div class=\"tasty-recipes-notes-body\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"body-color.color\">\n\t\t\t<ul>\n<li>If using frozen blueberries in the cake, do not thaw before mixing into cake batter. \u00a0Avoiding over mixing once the berries are added to prevent the cake batter from turning grayish-purple from their juices.<\/li>\n<li>I used\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instacart.com\/whole-foods\/products\/26477-365-frozen-organic-wild-blueberries-10-oz\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">365 Frozen Organic Wild Blueberries<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0from Whole Foods.<\/li>\n<li>You may bake this as two full-sized 8&#8243; round cake layers.
