Strawberry Cake from Scratch
This is an excellent strawberry cake! After carefully reading reviews, I made the following changes: (1) sift the cake flour before you measure it! to do this, put a measuring cup in a bowl, sift the cake flower over the measuring cup - when you get an overflow of sifted flour, take a knife and run it over the cup to be even (do not pack it!) (2) I used fresh strawberries for the strawberry puree. to do this, I used about 6 large strawberries, put it in the food processor with about 1.5 tsps of sugar and blended it up. Was tasty! (3) As per other reviews, separate the egg whites from the egg yolks. I wisked them for a few mins and mixed them just until incorporated at the very end. -- I also used a cream cheese / buttercream icing, and it was so delicious! The cake was fluffy, definitely strawberry and oh-so-yummy!
