    We love strawberries in our house and I haven’t been able to resist popping a few containers of them into our shopping trolley every time we are at the shops, especially when I have been getting two for $3!  Last week we found ourselves with over a kilo of strawberries in the fridge and although I’ve been freezing them, these particular strawberries looked so good that I wanted to make the most of them, so I decided to make these super easy Strawberry and Cream Cakes.

    Strawberries and Cream Cakes

    Although these look impressive (well at least I think so anyway!) they are so easy to make and based on my favourite vanilla cupcake recipe.

    As well as making these easy Strawberry and Cream Cakes, we also had fun decorating vanilla cupcakes (made using the same recipe) with strawberries and cream. Our big boy had a great time practising his piping skills – you can never start too early!

    This recipe is a great way to enjoy strawberries while they are in season and so inexpensive.  It’s also a perfect recipe for the kids to help out with.
