👉🏻Ingredients list⚠️
Fresh strawberries 300g
Eggs 3
Granulated sugar 80g
Cake flour 100g
Corn oil or butter 40g
Milk 50ml
Whipping cream 200ml
Icing sugar 20g
Chocolate sauce, sugar beads, and other decorative materials as needed
👉🏻✨DIRECTIONS:
Cake Preparation: Beat eggs until smooth, add granulated sugar, and mix well. Incorporate corn oil and milk, then sieve in cake flour and gently stir until just combined. Pour into a mold and bake in a preheated oven at 160°C for about 30 minutes. Let it cool before use.
Cream Frosting: Whip the whipping cream with icing sugar until stiff peaks form.
Assembly: Cut the cake into thin slices to serve as the base of the Christmas tree. Select strawberries of uniform size, trim the bottoms slightly for stability, and arrange them in descending order to form a Christmas tree shape. Use cream frosting to fill gaps and secure the strawberries, while spreading a layer of cream frosting evenly on the cake base.
Decoration: Pipe additional cream frosting for decoration, placing a whole strawberry at the top as the "tree star." Finally, draw trunk textures with chocolate sauce and sprinkle with sugar beads or other small decorations to enhance the festive atmosphere.
👉🏻✨TIPS
Choose fresh, brightly colored strawberries for aesthetic appeal.
Assemble the cake after it has cooled to prevent the cream frosting from melting.
The cream frosting should be whipped to the right consistency; too firm makes it hard to spread, and too soft makes it difficult to hold its shape.
👉🏻✨BENEFITS
The Strawberry Christmas Tree Cake not only adds a splash of color to holiday tables but also fosters emotional bonds among family members through shared creation and enjoyment. It is also a nutritious dessert suitable for people of all ages.
✨NUTRITIONAL ASPECTS:
Strawberries are rich in Vitamin C, dietary fiber, and antioxidants, contributing to immune enhancement and digestion. The cake base provides energy but should be consumed in moderation to avoid excessive sugar intake. Overall, this dessert balances deliciousness with health benefits.
