Which type of cake is suitable for whipped cream and strawberry topping?
Hi Kukie, Almost any cake will lend itself to a whipped cream and strawberry topping, including a cheesecake. Do you plan to cut up the strawberries and sugar them? If so, the sugar helps bring out the juices in the strawberries, and in that case, I would make a suggestion. Both angel food and sponge cakes are very porous, meaning that they will soak up the liquid from the strawberries very quickly. For that reason, I would keep the ingredients cold and only add them to the cake at the last minute. You won’t have a soggy cake if you do it that way. Besides, you want your whipped cream to be fresh and to hold its shape, so adding this topping at the last minute would avoid any problems. Here’s a nice way of doing your strawberries: SUPREME STRAWBERRY TOPPING FOR CAKES, RESTAURANT-STYLE 1 pint strawberries, cleaned and stemmed 1/3 cup white sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla Cut about 1/3 of the strawberries in half.
