    Tips For Making Strawberry Cakes

    Use Bright Red, Sweet & In Season Strawberries

    Not only will these look amazing inside the cake, but they will also taste so fresh and delicious. The last thing you want to use are off-colour strawberries as they taste very unappetising.

    Avoid using frozen strawberries too if you can.

    Don't Over-Mix The Cake Batter

    This cake is very soft in texture when it is made correctly so it is very important that you gently fold the batter. Over-mixing the flour is very risky and can result in you having a dense cake.

    Ways You Can Decorate & Customise This Cake

    You can also top this cake with:

    • Streusel
    • Dairy-free whipped cream
    • Vegan strawberry cream cheese frosting
    • Strawberry buttercream frosting

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I freeze these cakes?

    Yes you can! Slice and place inside freezer bags or airtight containers and store for up to 3 months.

    Can I add strawberry flavouring?

    If you really love strawberry flavours, this is a great option. You can substitute the vanilla extract for 1-2 teaspoons of strawberry extract.

    How To Store Vegan Strawberry Chocolate Chip Cake

    Store this strawberry cake at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for 4 days. Make sure that you place it inside an airtight container so that it can stay as fresh as possible.
