Amazing Strawberry Lemonade Cake Recipe

[@lifedoesntimitate000]

I just wanted to let you know that my ten-year-old son and I made this cake this week for my wife's birthday and it was such a success! Well, actually we had to make a modification because our grocery store was out of strawberries, so we made a raspberry lemonade cake, but everything else was exactly the same. This was the first time we had ever made a cake completely from scratch - no boxed cake mix, pre-made frosting, or artificial flavors. My wife says it's the best cake she's ever had. Thanks so much!

Wait what, no strawberries but got raspberries? Where do you live cos it’s usually the other way around for us NZ folks 😂😂 (it’s either no raspberry or they’re crazy expensive 😂)

ever since I started taking recipes from your website, I don't trust any other websites but yours I always go to your website to look for any recipe. You literally make me want to get into baking as a hobby and I really enjoyed baking the cakes I made from your recipe. I just made your chocolate cake for Family Day, my parents loved it!

[@sotosoul]

The fact that you also mention metric system units is a GREAT help! Thanks, John!

4 months late, but the best cake I ever had was from an elderly japanese woman at a mushroom foraging club. It was an incredibly rich and milky earl gray lavender cake (tasted like it had sweetened condensed milk in it) with an incredibly creamy, almost lemon curd or custard like lemony exterior. It tasted absolutely amazing. Like cream and lemon in earl gray lavender tea - but in the form of a cake with interesting textural qualities. It absolutely blew my mind, and I've tried / retried 3 or 4 times to make it.

[@malaakaasi6466]

Sounds heavenly Can you please share a recipe?

i’ve had lavender tea before and while it was super cheap quality and i hated it i think lavender, sweetened condensed milk and lemon all at once….i would die happy

You don't need to add both baking soda AND baking powder. That acid reaction dried up the cake. Makes huge holes and yes it rises a bit more but it's awful. Dry dry dry.

Thank you so much for offering Swiss or Italian meringue buttercream as an alternative! We hate American buttercream in my family. When I first discovered Swiss meringue buttercream only a few years ago, my husband was amazed and thrilled. I never made American buttercream before but it was such a pleasant surprise to discover that buttercream came in varieties that were not cloyinging sweet and one dimensional in flavor.

Visited my sister last fall & used a micro-plane first time ever. It was awesome how it made grating so much easier. I studied the way it was made & carefully ordered a less expensive version online...

Today I am making lemon zuchinni bread to use up zukes from my garden... because, ANYTHING LEMON! 😋

Commenting before viewing... I LOL when I saw the thumbnail. Last Mon I made a strawberry and lemon cake. I purchased a jar of strawberry lemonade jam at TJ Maxx to use as the filling (never seen that combo in a jam before so I had to try it, lol). I made a white sponge and a lightly lemon flavored SMBC. I cut the 2 layers into 4 thinner layers and put the jam on 2 with the middle layer filled with my SMBC then frosted the entire cake with that same frosting. I was winging it but that cake came out SO good!! Can't wait to see what you've come up with. Time to watch now... 😉
