    • Sift flour and baking powder into the bowl. Fold in gently, do not over mix to prevent cake being dense and hard.

    • Assemble the cake by placing one cake on a cake stand. Spread strawberry jam on top. Add whisked cream on top of jam and spread evenly. Place the other cake on top of that. Put some strawberries on top of the cake and dust with icing sugar. Ready to serve.
