So in November last year for my birthday, I wanted to create something a bit different and because so many of my friends have already tasted my
chocolate cake I decided to change it up a bit. I’am generally not a person who likes the the spotlight to
much so I decided not to go for the traditional concept of singing “happy birthday” and
cutting a cake. Instead I decided to make a cake that could be served as a dessert and still can be appealing to the eye.
This was definitely one of the less challenging cakes I have made. To start, I baked a simple vanilla sponge which I cut into three layers. Then covered the first two layers with sweet vanilla custard. You can chose to make the custard from the custard powder or make it from scratch. I chose to cheat a bit and went for the pre-made powder which is available in any supermarket. On top of the custard layer, freshly cut strawberries is placed. For the final layer of cake, instead of covering it with custard it is covered with light fluffy whip cream and decorated with whole strawberries.
So there you go everyone, this is my strawberry delight.
