It's strawberry time!!! Yeah!!! February means fresh Florida Strawberries are ripe and ready for picking (and much cheaper to buy) and that means time for Strawberry Delight Cake! I know it's not decorated to the nines, but trust me, it doesn't need to be. It is 100% wonderful just the way it is! So what we have here is your basic yellow cake mix, baked into two 8" round cakes, a yummy batch of homemade vanilla butter cream, and 1 pint of sliced FRESH Strawberries. You put a nice layer of vanilla butter cream on top of the first cake layer, then (you guessed it) you pile on the strawberry slices, ALL of them. Yes, that is a lot of strawberries! Then place the second layer of cake on top, and then finish icing the rest of the cake with the vanilla butter cream, and place a few whole strawberries on top of the cake to make it pretty. This is similar to strawberry shortcake, but trust me, it is SO SO SO much butter!
I truly hope you get the chance to make this cake, as it will deffinatley become one of your favorites!

Sounds delicious! Our strawberries aren't usually ripe until May though, :(
