STRAWBERRY-LEMON CREPE CAKE



Strawberry-Lemon Crepe Cake image

Each year for my husband's birthday I make him a different lemon cake (a tradition started by his mother). A couple years ago I made a Lemon Crepe Cake and it was really good. This spring I added fresh strawberries and the cake was fabulous! I like to make the crepe batter and lemon curd the night before and assemble the next morning. -Lora Roth, Seneca, South Carolina

STRAWBERRY LEMONADE CAKE



Strawberry Lemonade Cake image

A great summertime layer cake full of strawberry lemonade flavor!

Provided by Kim

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Strawberry Dessert Recipes

Time 1h50m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 21

5 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups white sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
4 eggs, room temperature
1 ½ tablespoons lemon zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup sour cream, room temperature
¼ cup lemon juice
1 ½ cups unsalted butter, softened
5 cups powdered sugar, or more as needed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon zest
¼ teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons heavy cream

Steps:

  • Place strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice for the reduction into an electric blender and puree until smooth.
  • Pour strawberry mixture into a large saucepan and simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently, until reduced by 1/2, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature, 10 to 15 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup plus 5 tablespoons for cake and frosting; remainder will be used as cake filling.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch cake pans and line with parchment paper.
  • Whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat sugar and butter using an electric mixer in a large bowl until creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Mix in lemon zest and vanilla extract. Stir in 1/3 of the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in 1/2 of the sour cream, and 1/2 of the lemon juice. Repeat alternating additions of flour mixture and sour cream plus lemon juice until just combined, making sure not to overmix.
  • Place 1/2 of the batter into a separate bowl. Fold in 1/2 cup strawberry reduction. Place dollops of both lemon and strawberry-lemon batters alternately into the prepared cake pans. Swirl batters together with a butter knife.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes in the pans before removing and transferring cakes to a wire rack to cool completely, 15 to 30 minutes.
  • While cakes are cooling, beat butter for frosting with an electric mixer in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in powdered sugar 1 cup at a time until incorporated. Mix in 5 tablespoons strawberry reduction, lemon juice, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and salt until combined. Pour in heavy cream and beat until frosting is smooth and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add additional powdered sugar if too thin, or additional heavy cream if too thick, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
  • Place 1 cooled cake layer on a serving platter and cover top with a thin layer of frosting. Pipe a border around the edge of the cake layer using a piping bag filled with frosting, leaving the center open. Pour remaining strawberry reduction into the center of the border, making sure it doesn't overflow over the sides. Place second cake layer on top and continue to frost as desired. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

CHEF JOHN'S STRAWBERRY CREPE CAKE



Chef John's Strawberry Crepe Cake image

Using this simple 'crepe cake' technique, you can turn any of your favorite cake fillings into visually stunning, multi-layered masterpieces. By the way, I say this is simple, not fast, as it does take some time to make and stack all those crepes, but once you get rolling, it goes pretty quickly. Use the ingredient amounts only as a guide, as crepe sizes and filling amounts will vary. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh strawberries.

STRAWBERRY-LEMON LOAF CAKE



Strawberry-Lemon Loaf Cake image

This cake is summer in a loaf pan. When baked, strawberries can become sour and a little gummy. Here, berries are macerated with sugar first to remove some of their liquid and concentrate their flavor. (Don't use frozen strawberries. Keep those for your smoothie!) The lemon icing adds a nice finish, to balance and bolster the cake's tart-sweetness. Have it as dessert or a snack, but it's especially good at breakfast with hot coffee or tea.

Categories     cakes, quick breads, dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield One 9-inch loaf

Number Of Ingredients 15

Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup/150 grams diced strawberries
1 cup/200 grams plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups/192 grams all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1 cup/227 grams sour cream, at room temperature

3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup/123 grams confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Make the cake: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, toss the strawberries with 1 tablespoon sugar to macerate while you prepare the cake batter.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, lemon zest, baking powder, salt and remaining 1 cup sugar. Whisk to combine. In a second large bowl, combine the sour cream, oil, eggs, lemon juice and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and stir gently to mix. Lift the macerated berries out of their liquid and add them to the batter. Gently fold in the berries until evenly incorporated.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes. If it looks to be browning on top too much, tent with aluminum foil. Cool it in the pan on a rack for about 10 minutes, then unmold the cake carefully and transfer to the rack to cool completely.
  • Make the glaze: In a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar with the lemon zest and juice and stir until smooth. Pour the glaze over the cooled cake. Let stand until set.
