I made this cake for my daughter's 5th birthday. It turned out quite yummy (and pink). Per others' suggestions, I used fresh strawberries (1 1/2 cups, diced) instead of frozen, and a french vanilla cake mix. As some reviewers said, it was a touch too sweet, so I think I'll cut down on the strawberry jello mix next time. Made 2- 9" rounds and baked for 25 minutes. Came out moist and perfectly cooked. Frosted with buttercream frosting tinted pink~very pretty. Will definitely make again!

This is a WONDERFUL cake. I have used this for the past two kids birthday cake and then I use the wedding cake icing recipe off this site. It's wonderful. I put sliced strawberries and their juice in here and it makes it even better! I also use a mixer for mixing the cake, makes it cook more evenly.

A very pink cake! This would be fun for kids but I thought it was a little too sweet because it had the recognizable Jello flavor to it. The real strawberries are tasty but they make it a bit soggy.

I'm rating this a 5 because it was eaten within 5 minutes of being cut. I made it for my friend's birthday and it was awesome!

This cake was very very delicious. I made with 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries diced up fine instead of the frozen and I took in other sugg and used a french vanilla cake mix. I doubled the recipe as well and only used one box of the gelatin and it was perfect. I made 3- 9 inch round cakes and my kids made a bunch of heart cupcakes for themselves. I used vanilla instant vanilla pudding for the filling and topped with "whipped cream cream cheese frosting" from this site. Out of this world cake! Everyone ate it up.

Very easy and pretty cupcakes and the flavor was nice, just a little dry. Maybe I added too much flour? Will try again with more strawberries and/or less flour. Smelled fabulous while baking though!

I made this for a bridal shower it was a big hit. Many people asked me for the recipe. I doubled the ingredients, except for the gelatin as other reviewers said it was too sweet. I made a three layer 9" cake and then about a dozen cupcakes. (I used vanilla pudding for the filling and smothered it with two whipped up containers of cream cheese frosting. Pile pink carnations on the top and it almost looks as good as it tastes!) Thanks for the recipe!

EXCELLENT EXCELLENT recipe. Very easy. I doubled this recipe and used a total of 10 oz. frozen strawberries. If you place the frozen strawberries in a bowl and cover with warm water, they will that in just enough time to add at the end. I did cook a little longer than indicated. They are perfect!

Used lots of fresh strawberries (about 1 cup, chopped very small) and baked as cupcakes for 18 minutes. Flavorful & moist- very, very good!

Made this for my daughter's 5th birthday party. I pureed 1 cup of diced fresh strawberries (rather than frozen) and substituted the white cake mix with french vanilla (per other members' suggestions). I whipped white icing and Cool Whip to ice the cake and decorated with fresh strawberries. It was a hit with the kids and many adults. I only gave it four stars, though, because I personally felt it was overly sweet.

I made this with homemade chocolate frosting between the layers, a buttercream icing mixed with strawberry jam (seedless), and topped it with chocolate-covered strawberries for a chocolate-covered-strawberry cake. Yum!

This was very good. I don't like Strawberry Cake, but I made it for my Mom (it's her favorite). I didn't have buttermilk, but did the substitution method (1 T. vinegar or lemon juice to 1 c. milk) and it seemd to work fine. My cake fell quite a bit in the middle and I had to cook it longer than recipe states AND I messed up (my fault...I'm NOT a "Baker" hee hee) on my frosting (salvagable), but the CAKE ITSELF was GREAT!! Will make again using another type of frosting ~ Thanks a bunch!

I got RAVE reviews at work with the cake. I actually had some co-workers upset because it went so quick and there wasn't enough for everyone. One comment was "it was the best cake he has ever had"! I used the pinapple filling recipe from this site and just subsituted strawberries for the pinapple and then used a traditional buttercream frosting with strained strawberry puree instead of milk or water.

Absolutely delicious! I got raving compliments over this cake and it is so easy to make. I used about 1 cup diced fresh strawberries in the batter instead of frozen. Frosted with Betty's Light and Fluffy White icing and garnished with strawberries and mint leaves - i wish I would've taken a picture. Everyone commented on how moist the cake was and I think it is due to using fresh strawberries. Will def keep this one for a summertime dessert!
