@saloni (#371) i made a half recipe as cupcakes and added a 1/4 inch slice of roasted beet to the strawberries for color and they came out beautiful and delicious

Thank you for sharing! I made a trial cake for my daughter’s birthday last weekend. I was low on eggs, so I used four whole eggs and I accidentally omitted the milk (pregnancy brain). It still turned out delicious. It made a great sized sheet cake but I’ll be making the fancier layer cake this weekend.

I made this cake this weekend for my daughter’s birthday (made a princess castle!) – I decided to try using gluten free flour (rice flour with potato starch, tapioca) and it turned out great! I ended up using slightly more strawberry puree and needed additional milk because the batter seemed too thick. It was absolutely delicious (a little heavier than normal cake but it was still soft and moist) and it was the hit of the party! Thanks for the recipe – I’ll be making this again and again!

have you tried using beets or cranberries or pomegranate juice? Or rhubarb? I read about these somewhere but wasn’t sure if the results were any good.

I was desperate to make this cake as soon as I stumbled across the recipy, and I’m glad I didn’t wait long because it is soooo yummy!! Even though im not used to using cups as measurements and I’ve never even hear of cake flour before, I followed the recipy exactly (although i used fresh strawberries as i
Cannot find frozen anywhere!) and what a yummy cake! First time making cream cheese frosting too and i was not disappointed! I also used the left over strawberries on top of the cake which was lovely! I’ll be making this cake any more times!! Thankyou for the recipy!

I have made this cake twice, for each of my daughters on a special day for them. I will have to say a huge THANK YOU for sharing this recipe, every bite that was taken was thoroughly enjoyed. My mother in-law got so disturbingly mad because i gave so much of the cake away to our guests that there was not enough to satisfy her needs. I will keep this around FOREVER!

I made this recipe today for my 7 year old’s birthday today and I have to say it was not good. I don’t know what I did, but it had a very heavy, flat tasting quality. I did not do any substitutions, and I did re-read the recipe and I did follow it to the letter. It was pretty though, but I’m sorry to say that most of it will be thrown away.

I made this yesterday and added the food coloring as you suggested. It didn’t seem to make a difference. I added two drops and my cake turned out like your picture. So there you have it. I suppose if you added more than 2 drops you’d get something darker but that might make the cake look weird.
