I have always loved making recipes from scratch. One such delightful creation is this Strawberry Easter Cake, a delightful combination of a strawberry layer cake with a delectable white chocolate strawberry frosting, topped with a rich chocolate ganache and adorned with an Easter-themed decoration.
This cake is undoubtedly one of the scrumptious strawberry cakes I have ever made, and what’s more, it is incredibly easy to prepare. Its delightful flavors and light, airy texture makes it the perfect dessert to celebrate the arrival of spring and the Easter holidays.
To make this cake even more impressive, I topped it with a chocolate nest made from a blend of chocolate and vermicelli noodles. The result is a stunning and visually appealing decoration that is sure to impress your guests.
How to make Easter Strawberry Cake
First, prepare the strawberry cake layers using three 7-inch (18cm) pans. This simplifies the process of assembling the cake, as it eliminates the need for evenly cutting the cake layers.
While the cake cools, prepare the strawberry jam and white chocolate strawberry frosting. The frosting is easy to prepare and results in one of the most flavorful strawberry frostings you can ever prepare.
Assemble the cake by filling the cake layers with strawberry frosting and fresh strawberry slices. Top the cake with chocolate ganache drips and chocolate nest.
The Strawberry Easter Cake is a crowd-pleaser and is perfect for any celebration, be it an Easter party or any other occasion. Its bright, vibrant colors and festive decoration will surely add a touch of joy and cheer to your celebration.
I highly recommend trying this recipe out, as it is not only a delicious treat but also it’s also fun and creative to prepare it. So, gather your ingredients and get ready to impress your loved ones with this stunning and scrumptious Strawberry Easter Cake.

What a beautiful cake! If I can’t find freeze-dried strawberries in my place, can i leave that out? By the way, in your written directions, you didn’t say when to put the freeze-dried strawberries? Thanks Ella for sharing with us another decadent cake.
Hi Ellen.
You can leave them out,they just add extra flavor.
What a delicious cake and so beautiful too! I made this for Easter and it was a hit. This was my first time making a cake from scratch, but the instructions and video made it very easy. Will make this again!
I made this cake today and it’s amazing! Thank you!!
Hi Ella
Happy Easter
Could you pls. Advise me what is the replacement of cheese in the frosting
Thank you
I am a huge fan of yours- I’ve followed your Youtube channel since almost the beginning and have tried so many of your recipes! This cake was AMAZING: delicious and creative and so cute! I followed the recipe to the T.. my favorite part were the strawberry slices in between each layer- they added such a nice flavor and elevated the cake. I imagine this recipe would be even more wonderful if you use ripe, dark strawberries to enhance that strawberry flavor and sweetness. I know I can always trust your recipes- thanks so much! 5/5 P.S: I’m making a mini one from leftover ingredients for my partner because he wanted more than just those few slices!

Hi,
I just did this cake, nothing like yours but I did my best for my daughter’s birthday while in quarantine. I have 2 questions, can you eat the uncooked vermicelli use in the nest? And second can send more details about the whip cream for the frosting? Mine was more like a pastry cream, it didn’t had the consistency of a meringue like yours and I don’t know when it went wrong. Thanks and awesome youtube channel!
Hi Ella. I am a great fan of you and I have cooked many of your cakes with great success. I d like to ask you 2 questions.
1)In case I cannot find sour cream for the cakes could I use yogurt or buttermilk instead?
2) I dont have 18 inch pans. Could I make 2 cakes instead of 3 using 20 inch pans?
Thank you
Hi, can I replace the sour cream with something else?
Hi Ella. Can I use a bundt pan instead of 3 7″ cake pans? Ànd if so, how long would I bake for? Thank you.
