HI, Megan – I love your blog! Just wanted to say, I tried this cake when it was first posted years ago, and loved it then (especially with the excellent local Oregon strawberries where I live). Well, this year we had a bumper crop of raspberries, which are my husband’s very favorite, so I tried this cake and subbed raspberries instead of strawberries, just to test it out. I’m happy to say, it was equally delightful, and not a crumb was left after a day or two. I have another one baking up right now. I simply scattered the whole fresh berries over the batter and doubled the sugar on top, because the raspberries tend to be a bit more tart than the strawberries. Anyway, thanks for a wonderful (and versatile) recipe! Happy 4th of July to you and your little family!

Ok, so I know this recipe is a couple of years old, but I was looking for a good summer-y dessert with family coming into town. Man, did this deliver! It was amazing, and everyone asked me for the recipe. At almost 7 months pregnant I can assure you that I will make this a few more times to take care of my sweet tooth 🙂 Thanks for a great recipe!

This would make me super happy. We’ve been going through strawberries like they’re going out of style!

I would say perfect for summer, but that’s in the title!! I really like this cake though – strawberry cakes are perfect on hot days 🙂
