How to Make Japanese Strawberry Shortcake (Recipe) | OCHIKERON | Create Eat Happy :)

4/4 was my darling's birthday, so I made this shortcake for him :)
I received many requests for shortcake, so I'm finally making this tutorial!!!
---------------------------------
Strawberry Shortcake (Birthday Cake Recipe)
Difficulty: medium
Time: 2 hours (6 hours or a day cooling time)
Number of servings: 1 cake
Necessary Equipment:
18cm (7.1-inch) round cake pan
electric mixer
Ingredients:
((Sponge Cake))
2 eggs *room temperature
60g (2.1oz.) granulated sugar
60g (2.1oz.) cake flour
20g (0.7oz.) melted unsalted butter
((Syrup))
20ml hot water
1/2 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 tsp. rum *kirsch, brandy, or any kind of liquor you like
((Decoration))
fresh strawberries
300ml fresh cream (heavy whipping cream)
1&1/2 tbsp. granulated sugar
a few drops vanilla extract
1 tbsp. rum *kirsch, brandy, or any kind of liquor you like
Directions:
((Sponge Cake))
1. Line the round cake pan with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 170C (338F).
2. Beat eggs with wire whisk in a metal bowl. Mix sugar and place it over a bowl of hot water and melt the sugar and warm them up to body temperature. Then remove from the hot water and beat the batter on high speed with an electric mixer until white and fluffy. Then on low speed, beat for about a minute to set the texture.
3. Sift in flour little by little and gently cut through the mixture with wire whisk until somewhat combined. Then using spatula, sprinkle melted butter, and quickly lift up the batter to mix.
4. Pour the batter from heights of 11 inches (30 cm) into the pan (like ribbon) and drop the pan lightly on the counter to raise the air bubbles out of the batter.
5. Bake at 170C (338F) for 25 minutes.
6. Place a cutting board and a paper towel on a wire rack. Then place the cake pan upside down and cool with the pan on top.
7. When it's completely cool, wrap with plastic wrap and rest the sponge cake in the fridge for a few hours. *you can store it in the fridge for 2 to 3 days and decorate the cake when needed
((Syrup))
1. Mix granulated sugar and hot water until dissolved. Then mix rum (if you like).
((Decoration))
1. Combine fresh cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and rum (if you like) in a dry, clean bowl. Float the bottom of the bowl in ice water, whisk the cream until it forms a soft peak.
2. Slice the sponge cake crosswise into 2 layers. Gently brush the sponge cake with syrup (brush all the surfaces which will be coated with cream).
3. Place one layer of the sponge cake on a plate. Coat the surface of the sponge cake evenly with the cream. Place cut strawberries over the creamed surface. Then coat again with the cream. Place another layer of sponge cake, and frost top and side with the cream. Garnish with strawberries.
4. Rest the cake in the fridge for 1 or 2 hours before you serve. In this way, you can easily cut the cake.

I made the sponge cake only today. I used rice flour instead of regular flour and it turned out so perfect. It is so soft and airy and not too sweet. Love it ❤

[@ochikeron]

Wonderful!

[@KnightgirlNobel]

60g is 1/2 cup 20g is 1 1/2 tablespoons 20ml is 1/4 cup 300ml is 1 1/5 (so just 1/4 and alittle more) thats the conversions if anybody still wants them.

[@petuniapie6479]

1/5 is smaller than 1/4

[@iiHeartCookiiies]

I love this cake recipe! The only thing I would say is that make sure those eggs are room temperature! I like to put them in hot warm water before just to warm it up enough so that they're not cooked. My first time making this was a disaster.... Since the eggs weren't warm enough, it didn't beat up to the right consistency and was as flat as a pancake. It also helps if you have a hand mixer, beating it by hand is really difficult.

[@sonic20681]

Tiffany Ng SO THATS WHY MINE TURNED OUT AWFUL

[@TyTrack_127]

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with this recipe. Im gonna try it soon too. I hope i dont fail

[@annavk7672]

This has been my favorite cake recipe for 8 years.

[@ochikeron]

You are so welcome!

[@javadivawithdog]

There is a peach sponge cake recipe that I make that is very similar. So delicious. A bit simpler with less steps, but an amazing sponge cake all the same. Look forward to trying this one.

[@geminikutie6141987]

I will never get over how polite your oven and rice cooker sound. I know there's no rice cooker in this one, I'm just saying. I want an oven and rice cooker that talk so politely to me, even if it's Japanese and I don't really understand it.

[@chloeV02]

I made this for my bf's birthday yesterday. OMG! It is exactly what i wanted to have! I love this is not too sweet, JUST PERFECT!! Thanks for the recipe

[@vanessabaniak5924]

i made that cake in my school..everyone loved it!! i also got a great mark for this cake..thank you!!!

[@ochikeron]

+Vanessa Baniak wow thank you :D

[@pyukumuku-6645]

That looks like the cake Kirby killed a lot of people for, cant wait to try it!

[@Tomohisette]

+ochikeron Hi ! First of all, thank you for your videos, they are well explained and your recipes are very nice! Then, I wanna try this cake but replacing strawberries by mango, do you think it's possible?

[@thattexture112]

I think definitely. Go crazy with ANY fruit. :) Maybe refrigeration becomes more important, depending on the type of fruit and it's tolerance to room temperature.

[@aaronstarr4574]

Hey how do u get the eggs fluffy

[@vaneplane]

あの、ちょっと質問あります。 ラムいなってもいいんですか?

[@mr.bleach6719]

@@aaronstarr4574 just whisk it until it gets fluffy ( if you don't have a stand mixer )

[@ochikeron]

my pleasure :)

[@muriaal]

I made this for my mother's birthday. I used an 8-inch pan since I couldn't find anything smaller. The sponge cake came out thinner, but it was still perfectly delicious. Thanks for sharing your recipe! :)

[@faranakalishahi3934]

Dear Ochikeron Thank you so much for this recipe. While we are quarantine, I find baking quite relaxing. I'm going to bake this cake for my mother tomorrow for when she breaks her fast at sunset, since it's the month of Ramadan. Thank you so much

[@ochikeron]

Sounds great ☺️

[@ochikeron]

oh i am very happy to know that you combined 2 recipes together and that worked. happy birthday to your mom :D

[@Loopie131]

Thank you for this recipe, I’ve been following this recipe so many times and it’s my favorite ❤️😃

[@ochikeron]

My pleasure 😊

[@garethnicholas8652]

That whole subplot about why the parchment paper was large was an emotional rollercoaster!

[@kashiko7]

I made this for my daughters 4th birthday the other day and she just loved it. And its so perfect how its not suger sweet and you really taste the strawberries !

[@charliehoward9765]

I made this for my boyfriends birthday! he absolutely loved it thank u for the recipe :) so delicious

[@SweetSinger789]

How did it turn out? Was it easy? Thanks

[@ochikeron]

+Anna Zhou well some people said it worked so maybe you can try, but i am not sure...

[@my-dall-ones804]

Done baking 😍 I made this cake just today (December 18,2018) for my mom's birthday even though she's not here anymore. 😭 I find it very easy and the recipes especially strawberries were in season here in Chile 🇨🇱 Thank you so much.

[@PeppermintToasties]

My mum and I just finished making this and ate some of it and it was really nice. We didnt have any liquor so we used a strawberry sauce that our supermarket had in the fruit section. I Will send you some a few photos of how it turned out on facebook!! Thank you for sharing this great recipe =) And we cooked ours in a flavor wave with one of those cake tins with the hole in the centre!! Turned out great!!

[@1chenann]

Oh my gosh your oven speaks! That's so cool. :O This recipe looks delicious, I'll definitely try this sometime. :)

[@kat_livescolor]

My mom and I are strawberry maniacs, going to give this a shot for Mother's Day ^^いてだきます～！

[@danielwood6799]

Thank you! This is my partners favourite cake! I’m going to make it for her birthday 🎉

[@ochikeron]

Sounds very nice! Happy Birthday :)

[@kayyee96]

Hi ochikeron! :D I have recently tried this strawberry shortcake recipe and they TASTED HEAVENLY :) They tasted so good and they weren't extremely sweet, making them appeal not only to children but also to the adults as well. Everyone was rushing for seconds and the cake finished in a flash :) Thank you for much for sharing your recipes and I hope that you could continue to make more youtube videos! :D Going to try your Gyoza recipe tomorrow ^^ ありがとうございます

[@AllenHamby]

this looks delicious i'm going to try and make this for my mom for Mothers day

[@Steel_blade_alchemist]

This is my favorite kind of cake!

[@retnonindya]

My aunt was in Japan (Osaka) for three years, and now she is here in Indonesia. Several days ago she commented that she wanted to bake shotokeki; "... I want to make shotokeki as fluffy as Japanese's ones. I wonder how they could create a cake that fluffy and soft." I remembered about your tutorial here, so I gave her the link of this video :D Thank you for being a great help for all of us! :) Hontouni arigatou gozaimashita :D

[@nathaliarossetti8802]

I had this for the first time last saturday, they were selling it in a Japanese Museum that opened here where I live 2 weeks ago. I liked it so much that I actually came here for the recipe hahaha.

[@GabrielDayot]

to sad for us who don't have strawberries

[@mysticwizardphd]

Gabriel Dayot You can use Prickly Pear or even Oranges as a Substitute

[@sweetco0kiepie]

What size pan did you use?

[@lorenzomartinperez729]

sweetco0kiepie 18 cm (7.1 inch)

[@_._._._._._._._._._._._._.____]

omg!! ochikeron!! your oven talks!! sugoi desu!! demo anata wa zuuto sugoi desu!!! 😍😍😍 aishiteiru kawaii ochikeron-chan!!!

[@ochikeron]

aww ARIGATO ☺️

[@ochikeron]

i am glad to hear that =D

[@yimanchan16]

How long do we need to beat the egg until fluffy

[@naomi21221]

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! That oven is so cool :D Thank for all your amazing recipes!

[@fransiscahermione6442]

Oh my God...this is super delicious! Make me feel I'm in a famous cake store in Japan when I eat this cake. Thank you so much!

[@ochikeron]

You are so welcome!

[@intergerlacticable]

Reminds me of yumeiro patisserie....

[@solstice_soda701]

Looks like yumeiro patissiere

[@ipodee78]

It is delicious. My cake turned out soft and spongy unlike another recipe I tried. I am replacing the strawberries with peach slices next. The sour strawberries were actually ok with the sweetness of the cream and cake. I added a little gelatin to the whipped cream to prevent bleeding, i.e. cream becoming watery.

[@NereRmz]

oh you make it so easy... i've been looking for this recipe but other people make it difficult even if they explain in spanish (my mother language xD) thanks!!! I'll cook it for my birthday!!!

[@GitaSavitriDevi]

i'm hungry watching it. help

[@kartikartikaw]

eh ada kak gita

[@liltrooper29]

I followed the recipe exactly and it was very thin when it came out. I don't know if it'll be enough.

[@xSakura752x]

I made this today for my brother's birthday and it was delicious. Although it didn't rise enough, my family enjoyed it. I also decorated it with green grapes. Thank you for this recipe~ ^^

[@abcdefg899]

ahhhh i LOVE sponge cakes!!! i'd love to make this someday!

[@huilokcheung]

Hi i wanna ask if i use whipping cream to make the cream, is it okay?

[@ochikeron]

Yes! okay!

[@ochikeron]

+Purple Fuzzy Bunnies glad it was good. hehe

[@kshaw111]

I will try to make it this weekend

[@4ngelpsych0]

Ochikeron! My brother rarely cooks and cooked strawberry shorcake for the first time with your recipe... His cake was a total sucess!!!! It almost made me jealous, your recipe is amazing :D!

[@grisseventyfour]

Thank you! My husband is Japanese and he wants this kind of cake for his birthday. I will surprise him!

[@ochikeron]

it depends on how big one portion is going to be... but i think you need 3 cakes...

[@Diddyyap]

you should make two cakes

[@ochikeron]

it depends on how strong you are... but don't take too much time... i could only say that but not sure how long for you...

[@rhokayaVEVO]

me and my mom wanted to make a cake so found this video. when i showed my mom this tutorial she said "the cake will turn out bad", i told to her watch it anywayz when she watched it she said " so when will we start baking the cake?" lol thanks this was a lot of help ^^

[@SweetCherry620]

Today is my cousins birthday and yesterday I wanted to make a cake so I used ur recipe. I don't have an electric mixer so I bested egg by hand. It's hard, but I didn't give up. Hope it turns out well and my cousin will like it. Thank you for ur recipe. Please make more cake recipes soon!

[@autumnpixiedust00]

this is the 1st time I've seen a recipe which calls for a mixture to be heated to body temperature

[@musiclover6842]

-____- temprature good enough to not burn your fingers is that when feeling if the mixture is not too hot when removing from the bowl of hot water.

[@ochikeron]

thank you :)

[@mjnf26]

hi ochi! i've baked a cake following this tutorial and my parents loved it so much! it was really good! i ate a portion after it was baked and then we(with my parents) ate it after a few hours in the fridge. then the day after it, i ate the last portion. from my opinion, it was more delicious after a day in the fridge. Just telling :) And thank you for this tutorial! keep it up :)

[@semilysmith5829]

Dear Ochikeron, How do you do it so perfect? Mine was average, I suppose. A few days ago I made it and gave some to my two big brothers, my big sister and her son, my dad and my mom which left one slice for me. But my dog ate it and I had to make the whole shortcake again! What a crazy family! Yours sincerely, Mikaya

[@GG-yd6on]

omg you look exactly the same as Tiffany from Girl's Generation o_O

[@rimshining4237]

OMG I never realized that!

well... every kind of recipe of this I've seen uses some liquor, either Brandy, Kirsch or Rum if you can get even a small amount, that'll do... since it barely needs some

[@user-ih8ih6vr9e]

どうも初めまして。 ちと、気になりすぎたんでコメントします。自分パティシエなんですけど、 粉を混ぜる時ホイッパーで混ぜるならもっと大きく底からすくいあげないと生地が死んでしまいます。 もしくはゴムベラでやった方が死ににくいです。 あと生地を取り出して覚ます場合は、型から出さないと理論的に余熱で蒸されてしまい、しぼみやすくなります。そのため型からだし、網などにのせ、なるべく蒸気を逃がすため高さあるところに。。。キッチンだとガス台の上とかに出すのがベストです。 あと生クリームはもっと立てないとダメですね(;´д｀) 崩れ安いショートケーキになります。。 少しでもアドバイスになればと思います。 長々すみません。

[@ochikeron]

+短足の拓也 嬉しいです！ありがとうございます！めったに作らないのでいつも何かとミスがあります。自分の作り方＋これを参考にして今度は作ります！！！

Also I messed up on the whipped cream. 😪 I was going to post it on Instagram and tag you in it but it wasn't very photogenic. Still delicious though 😸 hopefully next time it'll come out prettier. Happy New Year to you and yours 💕💕💕
