naked cake
Exposed layered dessert
A naked cake is a layered cake with little or no frosting on the outside, leaving the cake layers and filling visible.
The rustic, unfinished look became popular for weddings and celebrations in the 2010s: We're doing a naked cake with berries between the layers.
The style showcases the cake itself rather than elaborate decoration.
