This Strawberry Cake is the perfect way to celebrate the abundance availability of strawberry this season. It’s eggless, moist and toped with juicy strawberries . I had been to the departmental store to pick up these strawberries because I had to do a product styling for Pushpita’s-homemade food. I ate most of it and the rest I decided to use in making a eggless tea time cake.
I was thinking of baking this cake in February but cannot wait that long for this cake which smells so DELICIOUS because of the use of cardamom in it. It’s light, springy, perfectly sweet, hinted with warm cardamom flavors, and studded with fresh strawberries. Basically, this cake is best used with a cup of tea or coffee , however you can eat it anytime of the day.
