1.5 c	whipping cream
8 oz	cream cheese (softened)
1 c	sugar
1/8 t	salt
1 tea	vanilla

	In small bowl, beat cream until stiff peaks form.  Put 
	in fridge.  In large bowl, combine the rest; blend well;  
	fold in whipped cream.  WARNING:  over-mixing frosting
	WILL cause whipped cream to "fall."  The frosting should
	be spreadable, but NOT (quite) stiff ehough for decorating.

 12 oz	(jar) raspberry preserves

	Split each layer (4 peices of cake).  Assemble as below,
	starting from the bottom:

	decoration frosting
	raspberry preserves
	~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	|  cake top       |		Also: frost the sides.
	___________________
	|  frosting       |
	~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~		The picture shows frosting dec-
	~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~		orations on the edges and top.
	|  cake bottom    |		I've tryed, but the frosting is 
	___________________		a bit runny (unless *VERY* cold). 
	|raspberry presrvs|		I suspect that one in the photo
	~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~		was decorated with powdered-sugar
	|  cake top       |		sugar (butter cream) type frosting.
	___________________		(I take a bowl of powdered sugar 
	|  frosting       |		and add just enough of the extra
	~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~		above frosting for decorating con-
	|  cake bottom    |		consistancy. (go easy it dies when 
	-------------------		over-beaten!))
