Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
- Grease and flour three 8 x 2 inch round pans - I recommend using a circle of wax or parchment paper in the bottom of each pan. Cakes with fruit are more likely to stick.
- In a medium bowl add the flour, baking powder and salt, whisk to blend and set aside.
- In the bowl of your mixer, add the butter and mix until softened and smooth. Slowly add the sugar and mix on medium speed 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add the oil and blend
- Add the eggs one at a time and mix until the yellow of each egg is blended in.
- Add the vanilla and strawberry extract, blend.
- Alternately, add the flour mixture and the strawberry puree, beginning and ending with the flour mixture (3 additions of flour and 2 of strawberry puree)
- Add 2 to 3 drops AmeriColor pink coloring or your pink coloring of choice (optional but you will have a prettier shade of pink for your cake!)
- Pour cake batter into prepared pans and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached. Check at 25 minutes.
- Place your chocolate into a microwave safe bowl.
- Pour heavy cream over the chocolate and place in the microwave for 1 minute. (Times may vary, see our note below).
- Remove and stir. Microwave for 30 seconds more and when the chocolate has melted almost completely, allow it to sit for 1 minute more before stirring. Stir until you've reached a silky smooth consistency.
- *Microwave times may vary. If you are making a smaller amount of ganache, you will reduce the microwave time. If your chocolate hasn't melted after the 1 1/2 minutes recommended in the instructions, simply microwave in small 10-15 second increments until it has nearly completely melted. Let sit one minute, then stir until smooth.
- Cream the softened butter until smooth.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and pureed strawberries beating at medium speed until blended.
- Continue mixing on medium speed another 3 to 4 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally
- Slow down the mixer to very slow (#2 on a KitchenAid) and mixing another 1 to 2 minutes. This will eliminate air pockets. The buttercream will become very smooth.
- If the buttercream is too thin add more powdered sugar, if too thick add more puree or a bit of milk.
- Makes 4 to 4 1/2 cups
- We melted four oz. of chocolate in the microwave in 10-20 second increments until fully melted. We washed, dried, and dipped the strawberries into the chocolate and placed on a sheet of waxed paper until the chocolate was firm. (If you are in a hurry, you can chill in the refrigerator for a few minutes to firm up the chocolate.)
- For this cake, I piped a dam of strawberry buttercream around the edge of the bottom layer of cake (the dam was piped about 1/2 inch from the edge of the cake.)
- Next, I spread the layer with a thin coating of ganache, and then piped on a buttercream filling which I spread with my spatula.
- I then added a layer of thinly sliced strawberries on top of the buttercream.
- Next, I added my middle cake layer and repeated these steps.
- I topped with the top layer of cake and frosted the cake with a coating of strawberry frosting.
- I filled a disposable piping bag (tip snipped away) with ganache and drizzled around the edge of the cake. I then covered the top of the cake with ganache as well as spread with my spatula.
- I topped with strawberry buttercream stars spaced around the edge of the cake, (Ateco 863) and then topped each with a chocolate covered strawberry.
CHOCOLATE-DIPPED STRAWBERRY CAKE
This foot-long strawberry cake will show someone you have a really big heart. To make the super-size fruit, we baked strawberry cake mix in bowls, then we trimmed it into a strawberry shape and covered the whole thing with frosting and a blanket of melted chocolate. Sunflower seeds stand in for strawberry seeds and fresh mint looks just like the stem.

Steps:
- Coat a 1-cup glass measuring cup and two 1 1/2-quart ovenproof bowls with cooking spray. Prepare the cake mixes. Fill the cup two-thirds full with batter; divide the rest between the bowls.
- Bake 15 minutes for the cup and 35 to 40 minutes for the bowls. Let cool. Trim the tops of the bowl cakes with a serrated knife to make them level. Sandwich the cut sides together using a little frosting.
- Trim a 1-inch slice from one side of the sandwiched bowl cakes; turn cut-side down.
- Trim a little from the side of the small cake so it will lie flat, then attach to the bowl cake with frosting as shown. Cover the cake completely with frosting and freeze until firm, 30 minutes.
- Place the cake on your serving platter. Combine the food coloring and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Gently brush on the wider half of the cake.
- Arrange the sunflower seeds in rows on the red part of the cake.
- Microwave the semisweet chocolate with the butter in 30-second intervals, stirring, until melted. Spread the chocolate over the bottom two-thirds of the cake, letting it pool around the cake.
- Arrange the mint leaves around the top of the strawberry and stick a long mint stem into the cake.
- Microwave the white chocolate in 15-second intervals, stirring, until melted. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag. Snip the corner and pipe a zigzag pattern onto the semisweet chocolate. Let set 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Cut a strip of baking parchment and leave to one side. To melt the dark chocolate, fill a small pan with 2cm water and bring to a simmer. Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl and rest it on top of the pan, ensuring the bowl isn't touching the water. Stir the chocolate to gradually melt it. Or, melt the chocolate in 20 second blasts in the microwave, stirring after each blast until melted. Put the melted chocolate in a small deep bowl.
- Gently hold the strawberries by the leafy top and dip into the chocolate. Tap off any excess chocolate and put on the parchment to set. If you have any leftover chocolate, pour it onto another strip of parchment and leave it to set, it can be used again.
- If you'd like to decorate the strawberries, melt the white and milk chocolate and drizzle lightly over the fruit.
