STRAWBERRY CAKE

           STRAWBERRY CAKE

I prefer adding fresh seasonal fruits to the cake batter. 

The natural sweetness, flavour & colour in the fruits gives awesome taste , colour & flavour to the cake.  You need less sugar in such cakes as there is natural sweetness in the fresh fruits. 

This is a very simple, easy & tasty cake which i am sure will be loved by everyone.
