VIDEO: Topping the strawberry cake correctly

Prepare strawberries properly

A strawberrycake is tasty, fresh and decorative. Occupy the cake right after you've baked the cake base. First, prepare the strawberries.

1. Wash strawberries. Wash and dry the strawberries. If the fruits stay moist or in the water lying, they quickly taste bland.

   

2. Remove leaves. Carefully remove the green leaves from the strawberries without damaging the fruit.

   

3. Cut small. Depending on which pattern you choose, halve or quarter the strawberries.

Top the strawberry cake with whole strawberries

You get a massive strawberry cake if you use whole strawberries. This topping goes well with a strawberry cake with vanilla pudding, for example.

1. Laying a wreath. Place a wreath of whole strawberries around the cake with the point up. Leave a margin on the floor.

   

2. Fill the ring. Fill the wreath with more whole strawberries.

3. Splash cream. Decorate the edge with cream from the piping bag.

   

Use halved strawberries

The cake looks pretty when you cover the cake base with halved strawberries.

1. Put the strawberry in the middle. Put a whole strawberry in the center of the cake.

   

2. Start in the middle. Arrange the half strawberries, cut side down, around the whole fruit.

   

3. Continue to cover the floor. Place the half strawberries in a circle around the center until the bottom is covered.

   

Top the cake with quarter strawberries

You get a more eye-catching look with quartered strawberries.

1. Start at the edge. Place the strawberry quarters around the edge of the cake base with the cut side up and the point inward.

   

2. Lay more rows. Arrange the following rows. The thick ends lie between the tips of the previous row and overlap them.

   

Baking a strawberry cake and placing it on top is easy. With cake topping you can conjure up a smooth surface when the cake is topped. The cake looks fresher without the icing.
