Strawberry Style Matrimonial Cake
Most summers I enjoy going strawberry picking at a "U Pick". The Blue Diamond Berry Farm is one of these U-Picks and they hand out recipes you can make with strawberries. This is one of these recipes which is a nice variation from the regular matrimonial cake made with dates.
