CHOCOLATE-STRAWBERRY CELEBRATION CAKE
Although I have some great "from-scratch" recipes, this chocolate strawberry celebration cake uses a boxed mix with plenty of doctoring. It has become a popular groom's cake that gets more attention than the wedding cake. -Nora Fitzgerald, Sevierville, Tennessee
