Ingredients Needed For Strawberry Angel Food Cake

How to Make Stuffed Strawberry Angel Food Cake

Please note that you can print the list of ingredients needed and the full recipe below. 

First, you will want to pull out your FAVORITE brand’s angel food cake box cake. I say if it has more than a few steps you are making it homemade. BUT…SHHHHHH.

Shortcuts are the way to go when we don’t have a lot of time. Most angel food cake mixes require only the mix and water!  That alone makes this stuffed strawberry angel food cake a favorite in my house!

Time for the swirls of strawberries

To make your strawberry swirl (this is all homemade). Place frozen sweetened strawberries in a blender or food processor and pulse until slightly broken down. You will want to make sure that you have no large chunks.

Then place chunked strawberries and cornstarch in a saucepan and simmer until thickened. Remove from heat and all your strawberry slurry to cool completely. 

Putting the strawberry angel food cake batter together

Next, place half your batter in your pan. Then swirl your blended strawberries using a piping bag or sandwich bag with the corner snipped. Then cover the strawberry swirl with the remaining cake batter. Don’t forget to lick the spoon. 

The next step is to bake your cake. You will follow the baking directions as written on your cake box. Once baked allow the cake to cook completely before removing it from the pan. The last and final step is to lightly dust it with powdered sugar.

VIOLA! You are all done. Stuffed Strawberry Angel Food Cake that looks homemade but is semi-homemade. I love how this photo turned out. It looks so yummy. Don’t forget if you lick the spoon it is made with EXTRA love. I leave this part for my kids. They love to help me bake. They deserve a little treat. 

If you have strawberries left, why not make this Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting from Carla of Chocolate Moosey. She had me at cream cheese frosting. You can use it to dip fresh fruit in or just eat it by the spoonful.
