How to make strawberry cake
Prepare. To make cakes, first preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease two 8-inch round cake pans and line them with parchment paper.
Batter. In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together the cake flour, gelatin, sugar, and flour. In a small bowl, whisk together the water, oil, and eggs. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir at medium speed for two minutes until they are completely mixed. Gently fold the chopped strawberries.
bake. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake the cake layer for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Chill for 5-10 minutes, then remove the cake from the pan and place it on a metal rack to cool completely.
Recipe tips
- You will not use the instructions or ingredients listed on the box. Use only white cake mix and follow Lil Luna recipe ingredients and instructions.
- You can easily use ordinary frozen strawberries instead of fresh strawberries. Be sure to thaw the berries slightly before puree, but frozen chopped berries can be put directly into the cake batter.
- For taste changes: Use another berry (such as blueberry or raspberry) instead of “strawberry”.
frost
To make the frosting, beat the butter until fluffy. Add strawberry puree and stir to combine. Add 3 cups of powdered sugar and stir until combined. Then, add ½ cup of extra powdered sugar at a time to make a spreadable, fluffy, but non-running frosting.
gather. Assemble the cake and spread Âľ cup of frosting between the cake layers. Use the remaining frosting to cover the sides and top of the cake.
The consistency of this frosting is for a simple smooth surface. If you want it to be firmer and more effective, add 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar at a time until it reaches the consistency you want. If you find that the frosting is too thick, just add a little milk.
When you are frosting a cake, starting with a crumb coat may help. The crumb coating is a thin layer of frosting that helps “seal” the crumbs. This way when you add a second layer of frosting, you won’t let those nasty stray crumbs try to appear.
Can you use a different cake pan?
Yes! I really like how beautiful the two layers of this cake look, but you can easily use other cake pans for this recipe. Remember to check for maturity by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or has a few crumbs, the cake is ready.
- Cup cake: Just divide the batter into about 24 cupcake tins. Bake at 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes. Observe carefully that the baking time varies from oven to oven. Cool and frosty.
- 9X13 saucepan: Preheat the oven to 325°F and grease the pan. Bake for 32-37 minutes.
