I love all things Strawberries & Cream (real whipped cream that is), this cake looks divine. Shall be tried out in my kitchen before long !! Probably for my Footloose & Fancy Free Valentine’s Night during the view of some real lovely Valentine Movies like Love Potion No. 9; Only You (1994); the Original Love Letter (1996) and Simply Irressistible !!! One thing is for sure, I shall enjoy the Strawberries and the Kir Royal as well on Valentine’s Day.

Just want to check before making …..the instructions for the topping call out “Add sugar and corn starch mixture and stir” but the ingredients for the topping don’t call for the amount of sugar? So how much sugar should be used in the topping?

Reply
utokia February 9, 2014 - 5:41 pm

HI Deborah, it’s 1 cup granulated sugar … thanks for leaving a comment – I made the correction in the recipe above … thanks soooooo much for visiting, come back often ;o)

I just made this cake with raspberries instead of strawberries for the topping and subbed raspberry extract for vanilla in the icing. It turned out absolutely divine!!! I had just a bit of difficulty icing the cake. Are you supposed to wait until all of the topping seeps through before you ice it? There was still a thin layer of topping on the top, so the icing wouldn’t spread, it just slid around on top. I wondered if my topping was too thin or I didn’t poke big enough holes in the cake or if I had waited longer, all of the topping would have sunk in. Regardless, it was absolutely PERFECT!!! So yummy to have a berry dessert in anticipation of spring! Thank you very much! Jolene in MN

This is so delicious. However, I didn’t have time to make the icing so I used cool whip, topped with sliced fresh strawberries and OMG somebody roll me over. Just delicious!

The topping mixture. Should the water evaporate before topping the cake? What should the consistency be?

Reply
utokia February 17, 2015 - 6:42 pm

Hi Chanel, I am not sure what you are asking about the water, it should not evaporate totally but mostly … the consistency should be a little thick but easy to spread, if your mixture isn’t thick enough you can always add a corn starch mixture (1 tbsp. corn starch + 1/2 tbsp. water) to thicken it a bit
