Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare cake mix according to package instructions, dividing batter evenly into three 8-inch round cake pans. (5 minutes)

02

Step
30 mins

Bake cakes according to package directions, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (25-30 minutes)

03

Step
1 hrs

Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely. (1 hour)

04

Step
5 mins

To make the frosting: In a large, heatproof bowl set over a simmering pot of water (double boiler), combine egg white and sugar. Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved and the mixture is warm to the touch. (5 minutes)

05

Step
15 mins

Remove from heat and transfer mixture to a stand mixer. Beat on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form. (10-15 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Gently fold in the sliced strawberries. (2 minutes)

07

Step
5 mins

To assemble the cake: Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread with 1/4 of the frosting. Repeat with the second layer. Top with the third layer. (5 minutes)

08

Step
10 mins

Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting. (10 minutes)

09

Step
30 mins

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the frosting to set.

For a more intense strawberry flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of strawberry liqueur or extract to the frosting.
Ensure the cakes are completely cool before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
For a visually stunning presentation, garnish with additional fresh strawberry slices and a dusting of powdered sugar.

    I followed the recipe exactly and the frosting was too runny. Maybe I didn't beat it long enough? Any tips?

    Can I use a different type of cake mix? Like vanilla or strawberry?

    I used frozen strawberries and it still tasted great. I also added a little pink food coloring to make the cake even prettier.
