Hi Amber! You can try it, but cake flour is what makes the crumb of this cake extra soft. White whole wheat flour will result in a denser crumb but it should work.

Hi Natalie! From what you’re describing, it sounds like there was still too much liquid left in the strawberries (sometimes you have to keep reducing for longer to get all the extra liquid out). That would make it take longer to bake, make the crumb dense, and also would cause the middle to sink. That’s what I think happened but here are some other common reasons why cakes sink/turn out dense: https://sugarandsparrow.com/why-cakes-sink/

The flavor was amazing, however it came out very dense. I reduced the strawberries as the recipe instructed. Only the very edges raised while baking and I had to bake about 10 minutes longer than the recipe suggested.
I also made the orange creamsicle cake and it turned out delicious and raised like it was supposed to.
What do yo think I did wrong?

Hi Danielle! A lemon curd filling would be amazing. I wish I had a recipe to share with you but I haven’t quite mastered lemon curd from scratch yet! Use your favorite recipe or store bought and be sure to use the “soft fillings” instructions on this blog post for how to fill a cake: https://sugarandsparrow.com/fill-and-stack-cake-layers/ since lemon curd is much less sturdy than buttercream filling

Hi Kate! If the pans are 2 inches tall I would bake for 30-35 minutes. Just be sure to fill them no more than 2/3 full.

Thanks!!
