Nothing says spring like a bowlful of garden-plucked berries, and this strawberry sheet cake takes advantage of the season’s best, along with another unique variety: freeze-dried.
The fresh strawberries are stirred into the cake batter and artfully scattered on top, while the freeze-dried are blended into the frosting. Using both gives the cake a bold berry taste that’s at once sweet and tart.
If you can’t find freeze-dried strawberries at your local grocery store (they are often found in the snack aisle), both Amazon and Nuts.com sell them online.
Another key ingredient in this recipe is the marshmallow creme—it’s the store-bought secret to the fluffiest frosting, and it ties in nicely with the mini marshmallow daisies on top of this beautiful springtime dessert.
