Ingredients

  • Store-Bought or Prepared Pound Cake / Sponge Cake Layers: 1 loaf or round sponge cake (cut or pre-sliced for a 20-minute shortcut)
  • Heavy Whipping Cream: 2 cups (chilled)
  • Powdered Sugar: 1/4 cup
  • Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp
  • Fresh Strawberries: 400g (hulled and sliced, plus a few whole ones reserved for the top)

Instructions

  1. Whip the Cream: In a chilled bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
  2. Slice the Cake: If using a whole loaf or unsliced cake, cut it horizontally into even layers.
  3. Assemble: Place the first cake layer down, spread a generous amount of whipped cream, and top with an even layer of sliced strawberries. Repeat with the next layer.
  4. Frost and Decorate: Cover the outside and top of the cake with the remaining whipped cream. Garnish with the reserved whole strawberries on top.
  5. Serve: Slice and enjoy immediately, or pop it in the fridge for a quick chill before serving!
