Step 5: Bake the Cake

• Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Allow the cake to cool slightly while you prepare the icing.

Step 6: Make the Strawberry Cream Icing

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, strawberry puree, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.
• Adjust the consistency by adding more heavy cream for a thinner glaze or more powdered sugar for a thicker icing.

Step 7: Drizzle the Icing Over the Cake

• While the cake is still slightly warm, drizzle the strawberry icing over the top, letting it soak into the cake slightly.
• Slice, serve, and enjoy!
