Strawberry Blueberry Home Made Cake

April 26, 2013 European Cities, French Cuisine

With spring in full bloom and up coming summer I am going to share some nice seasonal recipes with you guys. Here is my Strawberry-Blueberry Home Made Cake. I hope you’ll try it and enjoy!

Strawberry Blueberry Slice

Here is a very easy and fast seasonal cake that I make with fresh strawberries and blueberries.

This is a 12 serving recipe, but if you want to make a smaller cake  you can always use 4 eggs instead of five as long as you always put the same weight in flour, sugar and butter (this is very important) For example,  for my recipe here my five eggs equal 300 grams.

So, here we go with the recipe!

Ingredients

Strawberry blueberrycak ingredients

  • 5 eggs (or 250 g of eggs)
  • 300 g of sugar
  • 300 of butter
  • 300 g of flour
  • a pinch of salt
  • one coffee spoon of baking soda
  • 1 table spoon of vanilla extract
  • A punnet of  strawberries
  • A punnet of blueberries

Preparation of the Fruits

Cut the strawberries in two to four pieces and pour them in a cooking pot with the blueberries.  Add 4 full table spoons of sugar and let cook at low heat until the fruits are soft and juicy.  Turn off the heat and let sit until ready to use.

Preparation of the Mixture

Strawberry blueberry cake mixture

Separate the whites from the yokes into two medium-large bowls.

add a pinch of salt in the whites and beat with an electric mixer until white in color and firm. When done leave it on the side and start the (yellow) mixture.

mix the yokes, sugar and vanilla extract until obtaining a pal yellow mixture. Then add the butter little by little as you keep mixing.  Then adds the flour little as you keep mixing as well.

Once the flour is well mixed in. remove the electric mixer and use a table spoon to pour the whites into the yellow mixture and mix them together in a up and down motion without breaking the whites. (do not stir round and round)

You should obtain something looking like the picture above.

Spread soft butter and flour on one or two molds like I did here, and pour a thin layer of the mixture.  Then add a layer for the fruit mixture and another thin layer of the cake mix.

In my case I didn’t have quite enough cake mix for the top later but it really doesn’t matter. It still works.

Bake at about 350° for 30 minutes or until the cake is golden in color.

Wait until the cake cools off before serving.  I hope you’ll enjoy this delicious strawberry blueberry home made cake. It is really delicious.

  3. Oh that does look yummy Sylviane! I’m not big on blueberries but I’ll eat them. Combined in a cake like this is looks really delicious. I’m sure you can use any fruit you want right so playing around with that would probably be a lot of fun too.

    Thanks for another scrumptious recipe. I’m adding this one to my list now.

    1. Hi Adrienne,

      Yes, you can put any fruit you’d like. Also blueberries in a cake test much better than on their own. I’m not crazy about blueberries by themselves either, but like this it’s great.

      Thanks for coming:)

  6. Yum! I love strawberries when they’re fresh and in season. Where I live, its just about time to pick them and I found a few places that let you pick your own so I plan to go get some when they’re ready! I went strawberry picking once before and it was really hard because you have to bend over and pick them from the ground the whole time, but there’s nothing better than a red, fresh strawberry!. I usually like blueberries in a pie 🙂 I don’t think I ever baked them together in a cake but I bet they’re yummy. This looks really simple and delicious. Did you make up this recipe yourself?

    1. Hi Carol,

      Yes, this recipe is indeed delicious and you should try it. It’s also a healthy cake.

      Thanks for coming by checking my recipe 🙂

  7. Sylviane,

    This looks so delish! Too bad I’m reading this late night because it gave me such an urge for sweets, I broke into my chocolate cookies. Not as good as this recipe, but will have to due for now.

    Blueberries are my favorite and this recipe beats boring blueberry pie!

    1. Hi Donna,

      I’m sorry you’ve read this at night and that it gave you a sugar rush. I know what you mean, that has happened to me before.

      Hope you’ll try it. It’s very easy and healthy 🙂

    1. Hi Micheal,

      I’m so gald you like this. I know someone who would eat that whole pie in one day, but I am more reasonable when it comes to eat my sweet stuff, but sometimes it’s hard, I understand 🙂

      Thanks for coming by!

  9. This looks great Sylvianne. Believe it or not, I did not learn to bake until i was in my thirties. My mom is Asian and so was my step mom. Asians don’t do a lot of baking. for desert we ate mostly fruits and ocasionally ice cream. When I lived with my French Canadian Aunt, she used to bake a lot and I was amazed at how sweet everything was for desert like bread pudding and apple pies.
    But I do love baking NOW with my kids. They love it when i bake in fact. LOL.
    I will give this recipe a try. My son and daughter love strawberry pie. I will have to add crème fouetteé though. 🙂

    1. Hi Annie,

      Yes, I know that Asian people don’t bake and don’t like sweet much either. I’ve spent 2 years with Korean people and that was obvious.

      As for me, I grew up seening my mother bake her heart out! I’ve seen her backing as far as I can remember so it’s stayed with me. she used to be a cordon bleu 🙂

      I’m glad you like this cake recipe and hope you’ll try it. Let me know how it turns out!
