Strawberries are everywhere at the moment, so I've gathered five strawberry cakes to celebrate - from a 15-minute no‑bake treat for when you're short on time to a show‑stopping Pocky cake, a decadent white‑chocolate mud cake, Elvis's nostalgic layer cake and a crisp meringue version. Which one will you try first?
1 - Strawberry Pocky Cake
I started with a real beauty. This strawberry Pocky Cake is a double layered, light as air Japanese cheesecake filled with a thick layer of strawberries and whipped cream. Surrounding it is a sweet boundary of strawberry chocolate coated Pocky sticks and in the centre is a tumble of fresh strawberries!
2 - 15 Minute Strawberry Chocolate Icebox Cake
Only have 15 minutes to make a cake and no oven? I've got you! This 15 minute strawberry ice box cake has a lush, fresh strawberry cream and chocolate biscuits. All you have to do is put it in the fridge!
3 - Elvis Presley's Strawberry Cake
Elvis's favourite recipe for strawberry cake was the inspiration for this strawberry layer cake. I adapted it to create my own recipe which uses fresh strawberries in the cake itself and in decorating!
4 - Strawberry White Chocolate Mud Cake
This strawberry white chocolate mud cake is a moist, rich white chocolate and vanilla mud cake layered with tangy strawberry and lemon buttercream, jam and fresh strawberries!
5 - Strawberry Meringue Layer Cake
This strawberry meringue layer cake is handy if you have an excess of both strawberries and egg whites! Meringue cake is sandwiched together with fresh cream and strawberries!
So tell me Dear Reader, do you have a favourite strawberry cake? Which cake takes your fancy?
