Hi! Great recipe!

Thanks❤️
I’m going to be doing this for my 4 year olds bday he loves strawberries 🍓😍
oh my yummmm 🍓
Really yummy
Hi thanks for sharing this recipe , can you please tell me the brand of your mixture ? Thanks
The eggs aren't listed in the ingredients here and at the website. May help for beginners if it is listed down? 🙂
I made this for a party on Easter and everyone loved it!!
I want to make this cake but then would like to cover it with your easy vanilla buttercream and decorate the cake (it’s for my niece’s bday so I want it to go with the theme) do you think that’s possible? Or would it be all messy?
I dont know if it’s just me but how is it that you can pick up a cake layer and it doesn’t just fall apart.. even just sliding my cake over a bit a chunk of it just cracks
Do you have the written recipe for you strawberry layer cake?
I’ve made this vanilla cake with buttercream before and I looooove it. I followed this “stable” whipped cream recipe exactly and my cake is in the freezer right now to keep it from collapsing. I made regular whipped cream yesterday and I wish I would have just used that😞
I am going to try and make this for my niece's birthday cake. Hopefully I don't mess it up 😀
Hi Liz, if we decide to frost it can we use the same whipped cream?
What kind of cake mixer is that? I like it.
What mixer are you using? It's awesome! 😃
Can i reduce the amount of sugar?
How long will this cake last in the fridge for?
Wow!! – those pink flowers on one of the cakes you showed!! 💞
I made this past weekend and it was a huge hit. Sooo delicious
Can this stay out the fridge ? Want to make this into cake cups
What do you call this machine and where did you buy it
Can you recommend a frosting that will hold up I'm heat and humidity? I been using whipped topping from sams club and holds great. But I want to do frosting from scratch. I'm in the hot Miami, FL and we do lots outdoor activities. Thanks!
Yes, Liz, I concur- Hoodies are the best!
What is the name of your mixer you use for mixing the cake batter?
Very good recipe, thank you for sharing ❤
Can I cover this cake with fondant ?
Do we have to have the machine you made the cake batter with? Or can we use the electric hand mixer u used for the whipped cream? Thank you!
Please tell me what kind of mixer that is! 😩
The recipe has 3 eggs, but i see 5 in your bowl. Could you or someone please clarify?
Omgggg, I have to tell you how amazing this cake was! I made it for my coworkers birthday and she LOVED IT!!! Thank you so much!
I 'm 12 years old, and this is 4th cake i've tried in the life .and i cant believe this . This shortcake came out extraordinary. Thank u soo much for your cakes . Keep rocking 🎉❤❤❤
AMAZING RECIPE AS WE NEED TO MAKE ONE THIS SUNDAY. BY THE WAY, DECADES AGO I SAW A COOK UST THREAD TO CUT VERY FRAGILE CAKES LIKE ANGELFOOD. SHE JUST ENCIRCLES THE WHOLE CAKE AT THE LEVEL NEEDED AND PULLED THE THREAD CLOSED AND A PERFECT CUT WAS MADE. I HOPE IT WORKS FOR US.
Iam be sad

Thank you for sharing your experience
Question can I use your this vanilla cake recipe for wedding cake?
I want three flavours vanilla ,chocolate and red velvet
So shall I use vanilla for bottom 10” or 12” x 4”or 5” how much batter I will need?
Either will be naked cake or abc butter cream
Or you suggest plz waiting for your reply
Well, if you don’t have an electric miker like you have can we use a blender?
I didn't get 3 separate 6 inch cake and you said we will get multiple. I don't understand it doesn't make any sense. And the cake didn't rise that much either.
