Once your cakes are completely cooled, slice them in half like you are going to make a sandwich
Frost the bottom layer of the cakes. At this point I sprinkle some leftover blueberries and mango in the middle layer

Sprinkle with some cinnamon and cocoa powder and serve
Notes
You can make this into one big cake, just use 1 or 2 nine inch cake pans and adjust your baking time until they are done
