Re: Cakes
I can't stand those little cake cups they sell at the store for making strawberry shortcakes, so this is what we do when we want the same:
Get a box of white cake mix from the store
A carton of strawberries
16 oz tub of whipped cream
Make two round cakes with the cake mix
After letting it cool, cut off any uneven parts from the top of the one you will use as the bottom layer
Take the strawberries and chop them up in the food chopper
Mix the strawberries in with the whipped cream in a bowl
Use them to "frost" the cake just the same as you would icing.
We LOVE our cake this way.

RE: Cakes
Well this is what I did this weekend! It was lots of fun. Wedding cake is white chocolate with white chocolate icing and groom's cake is red velvet with a "special" cream cheese icing. There was no groom's cake left.

Re: Cakes
We had a great cake after church last night made by our pastor. It was delicious.
Angel Lush
1 can (20 oz.) crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
1pkg. (4-serving size) Jell-O Vanilla Flavor Fat Free Sugar Free Instant Reduced Calorie Pudding & Pie Filling
1 cup thawed Cool Whip Lite or Cool Whip Sugar Free Whipped Topping
1 pkg. (10 oz>) round angel food cake
10 fresh strawberries
Mix pineapple and dry pudding mix in medium bowl. Gently stir in whipped topping.
Cut cake horizontally into three layers. Place bottom cake layer, cut side up, on serving plate; top with one-third of the pudding mixture. Repeat layers two times.
Refrigerate at least 1 hour. Top with berries just before serving. Store leftovers in regrigerator.

Re: Cakes
Renda: Thanks! I THINK they did. I don't taste 'em....I just bake and decorate! LOL After that much time....I just want to cut 'em up and get rid of them! LOL
Cindy: I've had this cake and it IS wonderful and really good on a hot summer day.

That is ART. I love to watch Ace of Cakes on Food Network. Lady Chocolate can make some great looking cakes too.
