Instructions
Let’s prepare our Strawberry Cake:
Preheat Stove-Top heavy-bottom deep pan or any similar cooking ware over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
Just add enough salt to cover the entire bottom of your pan to help stabilize the heat evenly.
Place fitted wire rack in the center and cover with a lid.
The lid hole should be sealed with a foil so the heat can’t escape.
Line 6-inch round pan with parchment paper.
Mix all ingredients until smooth, at least 25 strokes or less, do not over mix according to package direction.
Pour the batter into the baking pan and lightly bang on the table a couple times, to get rid air bubbles.
Cook the cake in a preheated casserole for about 25-28 minutes.
Keep an eye on your cake coz’ we may have different kinds of stove and the heat varies.
To check, insert wooden stick in the center and if comes out clean or a few moist crumbs, it’s done.
Fire off, let it cool completely on a wire rack, before frosting.
Let’s prepare our Whipped Cream Frosting:
I’m using ½ cup of Frosty Whip Cream Powder and to that we are going to add a 1/4 cup of super cold water.
Moistened the cream powder first before whipping.
When it’s fully whipped and aerated, you can add strawberry extract or strawberry syrup and mix until well combined.
Transfer in a piping bag with your favorite nozzle tip and we are ready to frost.
Let’s Assemble & Frost our Cake:
Since, we’re going to make a Valentine’s Day Cake, of course we want a heart-shaped cake.
So, I’m going to use my heart-shaped cutter.
Cut the cake in the center, from the top to bottom.
Trim off, the bottom and divide the cake in half.
In a cake board, put a little whipped cream in the center, this will help your cake stay in place.
Arrange the cake in the center of your cake board and mousse ring.
Put ¼ of whipped cream and top with the remaining cake.
Adjust the mousse ring if needed.
Add another ¼ part of whipped cream frosting on the top and spread it evenly.
Take off the mouse ring and chill your cake for at least 30 minutes.
Frost the sides of your cake and pipe some swirls on top.
Decorate with sprinkles of your choice and refrigerate.
Serve and Enjoy!
