- Place the mixture into the cake tin and add the remaining strawberries onto the top of the cake. Bake in the oven for 1 hour or until when pierced with a skewer it comes out clean. If not place in the oven for a further 5 - 10 minutes.
- Take the cake out of the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes and then remove from the tin and place onto a wire rack. Sprinkle with icing sugar. It is best served when slightly warm. Enjoy!
Notes
- This cake also works well with raspberries, blackberries or a mixture of summer fruits.
