Strawberry Cake Recipe
1. Don’t use sour curd, as it will spoil the whole taste of the cake.
2. Use fresh strawberries for good taste and bright colour.
3. Even canned strawberries can be used, but I used fresh ones.
4. Sieving the dry ingredients is a must to avoid lumps and for even mixing.
5. Adjust sugar quantity accordingly to the sweetness of the strawberries used.
6. Ensure all the wet ingredients is in room temperature only.
7. Oil can be replaced with same quantity of melted butter.
8. Use any neutral / flavourless oil only, else the cake smells different.
9. For vibrant colour, 2 drops of pink food colour can be used.
10. For more flavour 2 drops of strawberry essence can be used for this eggless strawberry cake recipe.
Common tips in Baking
1. Baking powder cannot be substituted with baking soda, both are different.
2. Ensure baking powder and baking soda is within the expiry date, else the cake wont raise and turns spongy.
3. Once you prepare the batter, bake it immediately, otherwise the baking powder de-activate and the cake wont raise.
4. Don’t over whisk the batter, else the cake becomes hard.
5. Choose correct sized baking tray, else while baking itself the cake overflows. To avoid this fill the batter to 1/2 of the tray.
6. If the cake doesn’t gets baked in the center, cover the tray with an aluminium foil or butter paper and bake for another 10 minutes.

Yes, maida can be replaced with wheat flour, other ingredients are same. Keep an eye on the brownie after 25 minutes of baking, may be extra 5 to 7 minutes may be needed if using wheat flour, as it will be little dense.
Hi
For frosting can we use normal powdered sugar instead of icing sugar
Icing sugar contains a small portion of anti – caking agent, which improves flow and prevents clump formation. But if you don’t have icing sugar in hand, sift the powdered sugar two to three times and then try it.
Ok thanks will try
My long time search for an eggless strawberry puree cake. Nice natural pink

Can i double the ingredients and get the same result?
Yes, you can double the ingredients and get the same result, but choose the baking tray accordingly, also it takes about 5 to 10 minutes of extra baking time. Or else, you can double the ingredients and bake it in 2 trays, thank you.
