A simple strawberry shortcake that you can make. If you already know how to make a sponge cake, it will be an easy task. This cake requires a sponge cake. I use a round 10 inch, aluminum baking pan that you can remove the bottom part. I cut up some parchment paper for the round bottom part and around the aluminum baking pan. I have the recipe on how to make a sponge cake and make the layer cake decorations.
The sponge cake needs to be removed from the baking pan and parchment paper. Then turn it upside to completely cool down on a wire rack. Since I will be making a layer cake, I decided to cut the cake in half to cool the cake faster.
The whipping cream has to put 2 tbsp of sugar. Without the sugar, the whipping cream will not taste good. The whipping cream needs to be whipped until stiff glossy peaks. When you turn the bowl over the cream will not move and it stands alone.
This strawberry shortcake has 3 layers. I used fresh strawberry. Washed and dry with a paper towel. I cut the strawberries into pieces. The first layer was spread with whipped cream nicely all around the cake. I put the strawberries around the cake on each cake layers.
I spread some whipping cream nicely on the cake and put some strawberries around the cake separating apart and make a nice design with the strawberries in the middle of the cake.
This cake is so delicious. I like it a lot. When you look at the cake, it seems difficult. Once you do it, it will be simple. Some layer cakes are hard to do, but this is an easy, simple sponge cake, with 3 layer cakes, a layer cake with some whipped cream and strawberries. If you decorated with blueberries. It will be a blueberry shortcake.
The strawberry shortcake came out perfectly and beautifully. One that is cut up to show you how the inside looks like. Another is a piece of cake on the plate to show you the layers inside the cake with the strawberries on the cake.
Kids and adults would love this kid a lot. If you do not like to have a lot of creams, you can put less cream as you desire. This can be a perfect birthday cake that you can make for someone or for a snack. If you have never made a layer cake before, give this strawberry shortcake a try.
