What a lovely treat and so easy to make. My family & I really enjoyed this dessert, I served it with a dollop of whipping cream. It made a nice large, tall tender, moist, light & fluffy cake, with an incredible strawberry flavour. I will be making this again, into my keepers box it goes. Thank you so much for sharing Kitten.
