Don't let the strawberry season pass by without making one or more of these ridiculously easy strawberry cakes. With just one bowl and a whisk (no mixer needed), you'll feel like a kitchen rock star when the rave reviews come rolling in!
Strawberry season is just getting started in our little corner of the globe and we've already polished off several large buckets of the crimson berries. I've been testing new berry recipes, one of them a delicious strawberry crumb cake (coming up soon!). But you know that old classic song that says "make new friends but keep the old"? That's what we're doing today... sharing three of our favorite cakes from years gone by. Each one is uniquely delicious, bursting with fresh strawberry flavor and ridiculously easy to make with just one bowl and no mixer necessary!
If it's not strawberry season for you right now, no worries! Although there's nothing like fresh local berries, all of these recipes can be made with grocery-store strawberries. Look for berries that are uniformly red and ones that have a little shine. Healthy, fresh strawberries should also be firm to the touch and have pretty green hulls
This strawberry-glazed Pink Velvet Cake tastes like the BEST wedding cake, delicately sweet, with a soft, tender crumb and a fabulous silky almond buttercream. Plus it's pretty as a (pink) picture! What's not to love?
The interior of this cake is pretty as a picture and the delicious glaze seals in the moisture and adds a layer of fresh strawberry flavor.
This fabulous Vanilla Bean Sheet Cake with Fresh Strawberry Icing comes together super quickly with just one bowl, a whisk, no mixer needed!
We love the super tender, melt-in-your-mouth crumb!
This one-bowl, no-mixer Fresh Strawberry Cake comes together quickly, has a tender, moist crumb and lots of fabulous fresh strawberries!
Unadorned or served with a simple shower of powdered sugar, this cake is always a hit. Studded with fresh berries, the crumb is moist and tender.
Hope you enjoy these Ridiculously Easy Fresh Strawberries Cakes

My husband wants to know when you are publishing a cookbook! The piles of photocopies from your recipes are getting higher!
Chris Scheuer says
You're so kind, Barb! Maybe at some point, but right now if wouldn't be possible while still keeping my priorities straight! 💕
Kathy says
Cannot get to the recipe for the 1st strawberry cake, the strawberry-glazed Pink Velvet Cake. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks, Kathy
Chris Scheuer says
Thanks, Kathy! It should be there now!
Kathy says

Alicia says
The pink velvet cake looks like it would make beautiful cupcakes. Do you have any instructions for that?
Chris Scheuer says
Hi Alicia, I haven't made cupcakes with this recipe but I think it would be perfect for that. I would check for doneness after 20 minutes and every few minutes after that.
Sheila says
The recipes are so captivating that the ads go unnoticed.
Thank you for so many recipes that make me look like I know what I am doing!

Martine says
is there a way to view your recipes without all these annoying ads!!
Chris Scheuer says
Hi Martine, I'm sorry the ads are annoying and it would be nice if we didn't have to have them. However, the ads are the way we are able to run the website and offer well-tested recipes to our readers for free.
