Danger dessert for April Fool's Day

Mmmmm...cake.  Moist, delicious chocolate cake with buttercream frosting. What could be better?  How about a moist, delicious chocolate cake with buttercream frosting piled high with chocolate-covered strawberries


Don't you just want to dive right in?


This is a birthday cake that is begging to be shared.  But what's on the back of that "Happy birthday" message?


Oh no, it's a warning! One of the delicious chocolate-covered strawberries has been poisoned!


Which one is it?


I made this cake for a friend's birthday, and with our twisted senses of humor (we're both huge Regretsy fans, if that tells you anything) I thought the threat of poisoned strawberries would be funny. 


And it was, making this the perfect dessert for April Fool's Day.  For the record, I did not poison any strawberries...


...but to be safe, I still ate the cake first.

Thanks, Jean! It was a fun dessert. This could work for Halloween, too.
