    until a toothpick comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes.

  4. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire
    rack and let cool completely.

  5. Make frosting: In a large bowl using a hand mixer or the
    bowl of a stand mixer using the whisk attachment, beat butter and 2 1/2 cups
    powdered sugar. Add remaining lemon juice and zest and heavy cream and beat
    until combined, then beat in vanilla and salt. (Add remaining 1/2 cup powdered
    sugar as desired for texture and flavor.)

  6. Place a dab of frosting on cake plate (to keep cake in
    place) and place parchment strips on each side of the cake plate. Place down
    first cake and top with frosting, then top with second cake and frost. Repeat
    with third cake and frost sides.

  7. Garnish with remaining blueberries, lemon slices, and zest
    and serve.
