Anyone have any good ideas? I usually do marble, we're all sick of it... I don't want any flavors like chai or pinto bean though.

If you have good scratch recipes I'd love them.

Oh- does anyone have a scratch recipe for strawberry cake without cake flour or gelatin? Or at least without gelatin? Can't seem to find a recipe without it.

Thanks so much.

White cake + strawberry icing fruit = strawberry cake.

And PS, Chai cake is fabulous! Especially with Bavarian creme filling. Like a chait latte.

The Italian Ceam cake in the recipe section here is good , people love it.

thanks Leah, I don't really have time or the desire to get icing fruit. I'll keep looking... I'll take a look at the italian cream cake.

Pistachio cake with white chocolate frosting is great. My recipe uses a mix though but I'm sure you could just add pistachio pudding to a white cake and nuts and coconut if you want it.

I served this to friends of mine last week and they are usually white and chocolate only people and even they liked it.

what would happen if i added strawberry jello mix to a white cake? I guess it can't hurt to try...

oh wow thanks! i guess that's what I'll do then.

My Grandma's Strawberry Cake:

1 White Cake Mix
3 TB flour
1 box Strawberry Jello
3/4 c oil
1/2 c strawberry juice (or water) (juice from frozen strawberries as they thaw)
4 eggs
1/2 box frozen strawberries (8 oz)

Sift flour, cake mix and jello together. Add remaining ingredients. Bake 30-35 min at 350.

oh just thought of something. when i add jello to a cake recipe do i have to adjust the sugar? i was just thinking it might get a weird texture or something...

I've used strawberry "just fruit" jam in my icing for a wonderful flavor. I've also used regular strawberry jam. It can be a beautiful pink. It is great with a chocolate cake!

The Chai cake sounds yummy....Does anyone have a recipe.

I don't adjust the sugar when using jello. If anything I add more milk. The texture is so silky and moist!!!

thanks christine!

THanks for the recipe for strawberry cake!
