Pretty GoodJuly 31, 2009By mradhubbard
"Pretty Good I just made this cake tonight, and it was pretty good. I did make some changes. First I did not add a cup of vegetable oil, the water or the four eggs. I followed the direction of the white cake mix. The next time I make this cake I will add more strawberries to the cake mix. As far as the Icing, I followed the instructions. The icing is very light and not sweet. I added more sugar and strawberries. I will add more strawberries the next time I make it. I would recommend only using half of the ingredients if you make cup cakes because this recipe makes a lot of icing. Over all, this is good recipe. I have had sweeter strawberry cakes, but this one was light, moist, and sweet. The reason why I did not give this recipe 4 stars is because I think that there needs to be more strawberries added to the cake batter."
