Add water to adjust consistency if needed.

Place the second layer of cake on top; frost the top with 1/4 inch filling.

Place the third ayer of cake on top; frost the top and sides with 1/4 inch filling.

Box and freeze. Store in freezer top side up. Do not store on side. Thaw cake outside of the box.
