Tube pan for baking

This strawberry coffee cake is baked in a 9" tube pan. After baking, let cake cool in the pan for about an hour. Once cooled, gently push up from the bottom of the pan to remove cake. Carefully lift the cake off the pan base and transfer it to a serving plate. If the cake is sticking, run a knife or offset spatula around the edges to loosen it.

FAQs

How should I store the cake?

Wrap cake in plastic or placed in an air-tight container. Stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Allow the cake to come to room temperature before serving (approximately 2 hours). I do not recommend freezing this cake.

May I use frozen strawberries for this cake?

Yes. Make sure to defrost and drain the strawberries before using them.
