Hi, We visit and read your food blogs regularly. Thanks for sharing recipes and wonderful pictures. Those pictures make us go, get the ingredients and try the recipe.

Today I found snow peas in our refrigerator and thinking of cooking something with them. My immediate thought was visit your site for some inspiration. I did all kinds of search, to my surprise, I did not find any of your recipes using snow peas. It appears you have used all the vegetables. How did you miss snow peas?

Dear Indira, I made these mini cakes in a muffin pan, a few changes that I made were I used whole wheat pastry flour and then added a 1/2 cup more of strawberries , then subsituted the orange juice with milk and then added a mixture of nuts. They turned out great! Thanks for the recipe !

Indira , can I substitute orange juice with more milk ? or water … kinda scratching my head on what to substitute it with ?? Have more than a couple of pounds of strawberries at home.. but no orange juice … so was just wondering…

Milk works fine Dee. I had lot of very ripe oranges at home when I baked this cake, that’s why I added little bit of orange juice to the mix. Make the batter on the thin side. Happy strawberry baking.

Loved it, Loved it, Loved it! I made it yesterday and my toddler son just devoured 3 of these. My husband doesnt like it very sweet and this cake was perfect.

Happy to read that you and family enjoyed this cake, Preeti. Thanks very much for the feedback.

Thanks friends for your lovely comments. Hope you had a wonderful weekend.

Thanks Rashmi.

Kay: Splet flour is a great idea. Don’t forget to adjust leavening appropriately.

Nirmala: It’s been a while since I blogged about a cake, isn’t it? So much to cook, so little time.:)
