I went strawberry picking, here in Munich in Germany. I may have exaggerated it a bit, I picked 5 kilos. And needed to do something with it. So I decided to make a French strawberry cake with it. “Fraisier” means a vanilla sponge cake, a vanilla buttercream, and fresh strawberries. I decided to go for roasted strawberries instead and felt pistachio would be a good combination. The heavy buttercream was replaced by a slightly lighter filling. If you want to, you can prepare the cake the day before, you can also start two days in advance. So let’s give the floor to fraisier!
