Strawberry Short Cake



A little while ago, my mother had a luncheon and asked me to make a cake for the occasion.  I decided to veer away from my usual richly sweet iced cakes and chose to bake a strawberry shortcake.  Strawberries are probably without a doubt my favourite fruit even though I rarely incorporate them into my baking.  I used a recipe from one of my cook books; I found this recipe which is very similar to the one I followed.  The whipped cream and strawberries balanced the out the denseness of the cake perfectly.  This cake was a hit at the lunch and has inspired me to bake more with strawberries.
