Directions


Prepare the Cake


1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease your cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the pureed strawberries, rose petal powder, and lemon juice.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

5. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three parts, alternating with the whole milk.


Assemble the Cake


1. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and smooth the tops.

2. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean.

3. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.


Prepare the Mascarpone Cream


1. In a medium bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese and granulated sugar until smooth.

2. Add the heavy cream and vanilla extract, beating until stiff peaks form.

3. Stir in the grated rose petal powder.


Prepare the Strawberry Syrup


1. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

2. Add the sliced strawberries and cook for 5-7 minutes or until they're tender and the syrup has thickened slightly.

3. Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the strawberries.


Assemble and Serve


1. Once the cakes are completely cool, place one cake layer on a serving plate or cake stand.

2. Spread half of the mascarpone cream over the top of the cake layer.

3. Drizzle with half of the strawberry syrup.

4. Repeat with the second cake layer, mascarpone cream, and strawberry syrup.

5. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh rose petals, if desired.


Baker's Tip: You can make this cake ahead of time by assembling it up to step 4 and refrigerating it overnight. Allow it to come to room temperature before serving.
