This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the frosting next time.

I'm not a huge fan of amaretto, but I decided to give this cake a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The amaretto flavor is subtle and it pairs perfectly with the strawberries. This cake is now one of my favorites.
