How To Make:


To make a birthday cake with strawberries, the first step is to prepare the sponge cake. This involves mixing together flour, sugar, eggs, and other ingredients to create a light and fluffy batter. The batter is then poured into cake pans and baked until golden brown.

Once the cake has cooled, it is time to assemble the layers. Fresh strawberries are sliced and layered between the cake layers along with whipped cream. This filling gives the cake a sweet and fruity flavor that is complemented by the vanilla sponge cake.

The outside of the cake is then covered in a layer of whipped cream, which is smoothed out with a spatula to create a smooth finish. Fresh strawberries are then arranged on top of the cake in a decorative pattern. Other toppings, such as edible flowers or sprinkles, can also be added to enhance the cake's appearance.



Tips and Variations:


Tips:


Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor and appearance. Rinse the strawberries well and let them dry completely before slicing and using them in the cake.

Whip the cream until it forms stiff peaks, but be careful not to over-whip it, as this can cause the cream to become grainy.

To prevent the cake from becoming dry, brush the cake layers with simple syrup before adding the whipped cream and strawberry filling.

Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving to help it set and make it easier to slice.

When decorating the cake, use a piping bag and tip to create beautiful designs with the whipped cream. You can also use fresh mint leaves, edible flowers, or sprinkles to add extra decoration to the cake.

Instructions:


Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.

In a larger bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Cream the butter in a big bowl until it's light and creamy. One at a time, add the eggs, completely combining after each addition.

Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in three parts, alternating with the milk and vanilla, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.

Fold in the chopped strawberries.

A toothpick put into the center of the cake should come out clean after baking for 25 to 30 minutes after evenly dividing the mixture between the prepared cake pans.

The cakes should be taken out of the oven and allowed to cool entirely on a wire rack.

To make the frosting, cream the butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla, mixing until smooth. Add the strawberry puree and blend thoroughly.

Once the galettes have cooled, place one cutlet subcaste on a cutlet stage or plate. Spread a layer of frosting on top of the cake layer, then place the second cake layer on top.

Frost the cake's top and sides with the leftover icing.

Put fresh strawberries on the cake's top for decoration.
