This is my first attempt at making the complicated Cuban Opera Cake (recipe is on Epicurious, just do a google search and it would be the first thing to come up). There are a few things that I'd like to change, namely having even layers of buttercream, with less on the top. Also, it's better to really let the chocolate glaze cool completely, while still pourable, which will leave more glaze on top. Next time, concentrate on getting the layers really even before you put the cake layer of top.
