    I tried this recipe last weekend and everyone loved it. I agree with those who said the cake tasted even better the next day. Instead of using white cake mix, I used yellow and I did not use seven cups of powder sugar either. I also used fresh strawberries because they were in season. Other than that, the recipe turned out great. My Mom wants me to cook it for Mother's Day.

    This was such an amazing cake! I did make a few adjustment to make it healthier. Cut out a lot of sugar and fat. Was so great. Will definitely put on my list of favorite desserts. Thanks Paula!!

    What a great way to enjoy strawberries that are in season. I made this cake for my husband's birthday in April. His mother made him a strawberry cake each year for his birthday when he was younger. What pressure for me. Well, he said that this cake was like what his mom use to make. Two thumbs up! I made the cake exactly as stated using vanilla extract. I called around and could not locate the strawberry extract. It wasn't missed. I made two thin layer cakes in large round cake pans. It was done in the twenty minutes. I sliced fresh strawberries and placed them on the icing between the layers. I didn't put them on top the cake. I saved the extra strawberry puree with fresh strawberries (let the strawberries set with syrup puree in frig for awhile to drizzle on top sliced pieces when serving. My family and friends were "berry" happy.

    This cake is easy and delicious- the cream cheese frosting is SO good! I don't think I needed quite as much powdered sugar for the frosting though. YUM, and it's very easy to make!

    This is the best cake ever. The frosting is too sweet. I added more cream cheese to even it out. I also used fresh strawberries. Thanks Paula

    I've made this cake twice and will definitely make it again. Very moist! However, I did have to bake it an extra 10 minutes. Check it with a toothpick. I think it tasted better the second day. The first time I made it with a can of cream cheese icing with a few drops of red food coloring. DELICIOUS! Everyone loved it and asked for more. The second time I wasn't in a rush so I made the strawberry frosting. The strawberry v. vanilla extract instructions were confusing. I used vanilla. Seven cups of sugar tasted too sweet (we like sweet things. But any less sugar would have left it too runny. I also thought the icing was too bland. Maybe I will look for strawberry extract, but I suspect I will just make cream cheese icing in the future. It would be hard to improve on that. I also think it tasted great after being refrigerated.

    My grandmother and I made it in March and it was still very good. It does taste better the next day. I didn't add all of the sugar as it called for. I also didn't put all of the puree in either. I thought it still had that very, very, strawberry taste to it. I actually think the strawberry extract did give the frosting a little kick to it.

    One of the best cakes I ever made. Easy, delicious and it looks pretty. Made it for Valentine's day and it was a big hit! I did have to cook it 5 minutes more for the centers to be set.
