I went way off on this recipe! I added 1 tsp of baking powder, substituted 1 cup of whole wheat flour for one of the all purpose flours and used Splenda. I put the batter in a bundt pan and baked up a delicious dessert cake. I added Splenda to the reserved juice and about 1/4 cup powdered sugar to the frosting to make it a little more firm. We loved it and the neighbors raved about it. This is a versatile recipe and so-o-o good. Thanks, Carole in Orlando

I Really enjoyed this bread--great strawberry flavor and easy to make!! Of course, I made a few adjustments towards my taste: Instead of 1tsp cinnamon, I substituted 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4tsp nutmeg and 1/4 tsp cardamom--next time I will increase the cardamom a bit, as I like my flavors a bit more complex/layered. Also, added honey to the cream cheese topping to sweeten as it was too tangy otherwise. Thanks for a great recipe.

<p>A Very Happy Stay At Home Mom!!!! I have a soon to be 11year old that lives with his dad, his name is JayJay, and 3 living at home with me, and 1 on the way....I'm lovin' life! Ashton will be 8 in January, he's the smartest kid I know! Wrylie will be 6 in February and he's got more passion and caring in his little pinkie than most adults I know!!! And my very personal pride and joy Hennessey. She was born on the 27th of September 2007 and she's my little dollbaby. I love being at home with my children..love paying for ALL the stuff my 2nd grader brings home...soccer fees, and basketball fees, and book orders...I love cartin' my kindergartner around, and then coming home and cuddlin' with my little girl, and shopping for her favorite thing...shoes. My husband and I are as tight as 2 people can be, and I hate it when he leaves for work and can't wait until the clock strikes 4:30 because I know that means he's on his way home. Life is good. I couldn't ask for more.</p>
