PIN THIS RECIPE FOR LATER If you know me at all, you know I am allllll over this right here. I love lemon. I love strawberries. I love cake. There is really not that much to be mad about. It is nearly the end of June, which means that school is on the way out and summer is on the way in, and I see 2 glorious months of camping and swimming and spray parking and picnicking ahead of us. How I will do that with a 6 year old, 3 year old and a 6 month old and no husband, I’m not exactly sure yet — but we’ll figure something out 😉 This is the time where my husband gets busy again with work, and I’m mostly single-momming from July until we get a dump of snow (which I’m always praying comes sooner rather than later). But I am still hoping to get out of the house and enjoy the beautiful Manitoba summer while we have it!
How to make Strawberry Lemonade Cake:
I try to stay away from boxed mixes as much as possible around here, but every once in a while we mix things up! This strawberry cake is homemade and uses real strawberry puree for flavor, but if you want to punch things up feel free to add a tablespoon or two of strawberry Jello powder to give it some “pop”. You can use fresh or frozen strawberries for your puree, just make sure that if you’re using frozen strawberries, you thaw and drain them before pureeing so that you are not adding in all that extra liquid. Feel free to mix things up a bit! You can use raspberries to make this a raspberry lemonade cake, swap the lemon for orange or lime, or just go crazy and add a little of everything! I’m a big fan of improvising here, so you do you 😉
