Strawberry Christmas Cake
A strawberry cake sounds like something you might want to serve in the spring or summer or perhaps at Easter, but this is actually a knockout choice to serve at a Christmas party.
It’s unexpected because we always associate the spicy aromas of cinnamon and nutmeg at Christmas-time. But this cake can be a wonderful addition to the dessert table, right alongside the apple pie, fudge, spice cake and gingerbread boys. It will be a delightful surprise and it’s simple to make. This is definitely a FED cake: Fast, Easy and Delicious.
