This is a cool creamy strawberry cake, I got the recipe from my Mom I am not sure where she got it but I love it. I love to bake and this one is sooo good and I love to make things that look pretty and this one definately does. The cake is hot pink and the icing a lighter pink and then I garnish with fanned strawberries on top! Hope you like it as much as I do.
