In 2024, I decided to start making birthday cakes for my family. My birthday was a few months ago, but recently I was looking at my phone gallery and was so happy to see this cake again and know that I made it practically from scratch that I decided to share it on a subreddit in my country. One of the comments I received suggested I share it here too. So here I am!
I'm not fluent in English, so I had to use a translator, so the text may have some spelling mistakes or seem a little stiff.
About the cake:
Chocolate cake (made with alkaline cocoa) and cream filling with strawberry jam (homemade because I find the store-bought kind a little too sweet) and whipped cream frosting with homemade strawberry syrup.
In addition to the jam, I made some strawberry confit (for those who don't know, confit is a bit like preserved fruit – that's where I got the syrup to use in the frosting).
Note: I didn't have a good photo of it with the candles, only on video, so I took a screenshot. And I only have this photo of it cut because it was gone so quickly.
I think that's it, thanks for reading!!!
