Best Strawberry Cake from Scratch

Servings:

This strawberry cake is easy to make from scratch with strawberry puree and strawberry gelatin. This recipe is worth its weight in gold to me as a caterer. I made this cake for a child's birthday party and it was a major hit! Frost with cream cheese frosting or chocolate ganache for a special treat.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. 2 Beat sugar, butter, and dry strawberry gelatin together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  3. 3 Combine flour and baking powder in a large bowl; stir into butter mixture alternately with milk.
  4. 4 Blend in strawberry puree and vanilla.
  5. 5 Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 to 30 minutes. Cool cakes on a wire rack for 10 minutes; run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack to cool completely.
  7. 7 Enjoy!
