Bakery Style Strawberry Cake from scratch. This is a heavy substantial cake. Serves 8 to 10 people.
Ingredients:
Cake:
3 cups all purpose flour (375g)
1/2 teaspoon table salt
2 teaspoons baking powder (9 grams)
1 and 1/3 cup strawberry puree (300 g)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup whole milk (118 ml)
1 to 2 teaspoons lemon zest
2 sticks butter (227g)
2 cups sugar (400g)
4 egg whites (120g)
2 whole eggs
Frosting:
1/4 cup freeze dried strawberries (5 grams)
2 packages Philadelphia Cream Cheese (450 grams)
1 stick butter (113g)
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1/2 to 1 teaspoon lemon juice
4 to 4 and 1/2 cups powdered sugar
I used fresh strawberries, but frozen are fine. It takes about 2 cups of whole strawberries to make 1 and 1/3 cups strawberry puree. Just allow the strawberry puree to come to room temperature if using frozen strawberries.
I almost always sift my flour but this is optional. I measure the flour and then sift. I also use a spoon to put flour into the measuring cup, then use a table knife to scrape off extra flour to measure.
Have all your ingredients room temperature.
Baking time was 40 minutes for me, be sure to check at 30 or 35 minutes.
I used two 8 inch round cake pans, a 13 X 9 pan is fine to use and you can cut the frosting recipe in half for that pan if you wish. This will also make 24 cup cakes and I would make the full recipe of frosting. Baking time for cupcakes will be 20 to 25 minutes. Oven temperature 350F
This frosting and cake should be kept in the refrigerator, but I highly recommend to take the cake out of the refrigerator 3 or 4 hours early before serving, then put cake back into refrigeration. The cake tastes much better at room temperature.
1. Have your oven ready and hot @ 350fF after getting your measurements done and cake pan(s) ready.
2. Cream the butter and sugar for 5 or 6 minutes
3. Add in the 4 egg whites and mix on high.
4. Add in your two eggs one at a time and mix on high.
5. Add in your flour mixture and strawberry liquid in stages... 1/3 flour then 1/2 strawberry, then 1/3 flour and then rest of strawberries and end with the last third of flour.
See above for baking times.
