Fresh Strawberry Bundt Cake Recipe
Fresh Strawberry Bundt Cake Recipes: made with fresh lemon zest and a yogurt cake batter, this moist and tender strawberry cake will make your day. Guaranteed!
Farm Life and Yogurt Cake
This Strawberry Cake is inspired by farm-fresh, hand-picked strawberries. Every time I take the kid’s berry picking, I think to myself, “I could totally do this. I could farm… It’s hard work, but peaceful and gratifying.”
Then I imagine buying a large piece of land and reinventing our life. I envision myself in overalls and work boots, driving a tractor. That thought always makes me chuckle!
Of course, I know nothing of farming. I’ve never even had my own garden!
This year is the first year we are going to give it a whirl, that is, be involved in a communal garden. I’m hoping to learn a thing or two. I’ll let you know how it goes.
I still like to pretend, as we’re picking berries, that I somehow had a part in cultivating them. I also like to believe that I’m honoring the berries by putting them in such lovely treats! (If that makes me slightly crazy, I can live with that.)
Strawberry Cake
This super moist Fresh Strawberry Yogurt Cake is the perfect way to celebrate juicy berries! It’s thick, soft, and packed full of fresh strawberries that weep pink tears down each tender slice. The yogurt and lemon create a wonderful tangy balance to its sweetness. This cake slices well and doesn’t dry out quickly.
It is wonderfully delicious on its own–but is also marvelous with a scoop of homemade ice cream! A perfect dessert to take to picnics and BBQs this spring and summer!
How To Make Fresh Strawberry Cake
Ingredients
- Softened Unsalted Butter
- Granulated Sugar
- Large Eggs
- Lemon Juice
- Zest of a Lemon
- All-Purpose Flour
- Baking Soda
- Salt
- Greek Yogurt -plain or vanilla
- Fresh Strawberries – for the best flavor and taste
- Powdered Sugar – AKA confectioners’ sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan (10-15 cup pan). In a large bowl, sift together 2 1/4 cups of flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix in the lemon zest and set aside.
Adding Fresh Strawberries
With an electric stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Alternate beating in the flour mixture and the yogurt, mixing just until incorporated.
Toss the strawberries with the remaining ¼ cup of flour. Gently mix them into the batter.
Baking a Strawberry Cake
Pour the yogurt cake batter into the Bundt pan. Lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees F and bake for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Topped with Glaze
Allow to cool at least 20 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely. Once cooled whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and the powdered sugar. Drizzle over the top of the cake.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I freeze these bundt cake recipes?
Absolutely! Just be sure to wrap the cake well to protect it from freezer burn. Then thaw slowly at room temperature when you are ready to serve it.
My strawberries all sunk to the bottom of the pan. How can I fix this?
Thick yogurt with less moisture in it will produce a thicker batter, in which the berries won’t sink to the bottom (top) of the cake as seen in the photos. Instead, the berries will be evenly suspended throughout the cake.
However, I personally like the layer of berries on the top of the cake, so I use traditional yogurt instead of Greek-style yogurt.
How do I keep the cake from sticking to the pan?
A good bunt pan should have a nonstick coating. Even so, it’s best to grease and flour the pan thoroughly, making sure to cover all the nooks and crannies. This is the secret ingredient.
If your bundt cakes continue to stick to the pan, it’s probably time to invest in a new bundt pan.
I’ve had a few questions about the texture of the batter.
The consistency of the yogurt and the juiciness of the berries, greatly determine the consistency of the batter. Thick (dryer) yogurt will produce a thicker batter, in which the berries won’t sink to the bottom (top) of the cake as seen in the photos. Either way, it is a great cake. Don’t worry about the thickness of the batter.

Hi! Can I use 0% Fat greek yoghurt? Or does it have to be higher fat type of yoghurt. Thanks!
Hi Helena,
Sure, you can use nonfat yogurt. No further adjustments are needed. Happy Baking!
Hello, this recipe is absolutely delicious, thank you for sharing! I’m planning on making mini bundts with this recipe, do you know how long I would bake it for? It’s a 6 Bundt pan
Hi V,
For mini bundts, the bake time is 20-25 minutes.
Please clarify for future bakers to only mix in 2 cups of the flour. I dumped in all of mine them read the next step I should have saved out ¼ cup for the strawberries! It’s in the oven now, hoping it turns out ok!
I baked this cake today and we loved it. It’s so moist. I love almond flavor so I added a touch of almond extract. I will definitely bake it again.
Can I use cream cheese instead of yogurt?
Hi Amie,
Cream cheese is a little too firm, but you can use sour cream instead of yogurt. Happy baking!
I made this cake tonight and my husband who is very picky, said it was the best cake he’d ever had. That says a lot! I will be making it again. Note: I used sour cream instead of yogurt.
Wonderful!!! I made this pound cake and two others this weekend and I was not disappointed. It is so moist and flavorful. That said…I did make a couple of changes with the flavors. I was looking for a cake with strawberry flavor and taste only. So, I omitted the lemon juice and the lemon zest. I replaced with fresh squeezed orange juice (for a milder flavor), added vanilla extract and strawberry extract. Perfect! I’ve added Strawberry Yogurt Pound Cake to my summer cake list.
Thank you very much for this creation!
Real easy to make. Came out of the pan so good. Strawberries are evenly distributed. My wife loves me even more now.
Not a fan of bakes strawberries so I substituted raspberries. This is one of the best cakes I have ever tasted. My bundt pan did not release so making into cupcakes for Easter. Just Loved! Loved! Loved! the cake. Thanks for the recipe.
Absolutely delicious. Very successful recipe.
Can I use sour cream instead of yogurt?
Susan,
Yes, you can! Let me know how it turns out.
This recipe has become a goto recipe for me. Made it with many variations, including my favorite… pear. The lemon, pear and vanilla flavored yogurt is absolutely amazing!
What a lovely cake! If I didn’t start my crust for my strawberry tart for my party tonight, I would have made this one! too gorgeous!

Cake is very moist. I think the strawberry takes second fiddle to the lemon flavor. The cake soaked up the glaze even though it was completely cool. I feel there needs to be a little strawberry flavor in the glaze. Overall I would make this cake again. Bundt cakes are just so easy.
The recipe is great, the cake turned out like the picture. So moist and delicious.
I made this for my anniversary and was just so delicious, each bite was a right combination of fruity, fresh, sweet and tangy dessert. Was quite apprehensive in the beginning with as there was no additional falvouring but the end was just so delectable. Thanks so much for wonderful recipe 😍
This strawberry bundt cake recipe seems amazing and unique, thanks for sharing this . Will love to try this delicious , hope my kids will love this one.

This cake was amazing! I used strawberry yogurt and took out 1/2 cup of sugar since the yogurt was sweetened. I will definitely be making again!
Can you make this in a loaf pan instead of a bundt?
Hi Jay,
Yes, you can! Depending on the size of loaf pan, you can fill 2-3 pans with the batter. Baking time will range between 45-60 minutes.
Absolutely delicious
Scared to bake it. Does it really not have baking powder? All similar recipes do.
Hi Mary Lou,
The baking soda is all that is needed here. Happy baking! :)
My family loved it! Such a great simple recipe, the cake is nice and fluffy and the lemon drizzle on top brings it all together. We almost finished the whole cake in a day. 10/10 recipe!
I made this for a colleague’s birthday and she loved it. The flavor and texture of this cake is perfect. Not overly sweet, not too dense, and completely delicious. The only modification I made was using lime juice instead of lemon because it’s all I had at home. It still came out yummy! Sadly, part of the cake stuck to the pan, but I was able to mask the damage with fresh fruit. It’s the perfect summer dessert recipe and one that I’ll keep making for years to come.
Hello. I’ve made this cake multiple times and received rave reviews each time. It’s very moist and so delicious. Today I had strawberries that needed to be used so I made the cake again and plan to freeze it for a future time. Should I freeze it with the glaze or put the glaze on once it’s defrosted?
Thank you!
I’d wait on adding the glaze, and do it after you’ve later defrosted the cake. Glazes and icings can get weird when thawing.
Question! What temperature should the oven be at? You have two different temps on this recipe. 375 degrees and 325 degrees. Reading some of the comments I’m gonna try the 375.
You preheat the oven to 375 and reduce the temp to 325 once you but the cake in the oven.
My cake fell while In the oven,what happened?
Hi Corey,
Ant chance you opened the oven door or “toothpick-tested” the cake too early? Cakes do not like to be disturbed while baking until they are mostly baked and set.
Usually I coat my fruit with some of the flour in the re pie to ensure they don’t all sink to the bottom of the pan. The same should work here, right?
The recipe tells you to reserve 1/4 cup of flour and toss the strawberries in that.
This cake turned out absolutely delicious. I used plain yogurt but I drained out the whey as much as possible using a paper coffee filter so the consistency was almost as thick as Greek yogurt. I reduced the sugar by half and doubled the amount of strawberries. It turned out really well regardless of my tweaks. So glad to have found your recipes.
This recipe turned out amazing. I cut the sugar back to 1.5 cups, and baked exactly as the recipe called for. The cake turned out moist and a beautiful light golden brown. It was amazing. I will try it with blueberries next time. Definitely a keeper. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

It was a hit on Mother’s Day! So freaking delicious, everyone was asking me for the recipe!! Recommend 10/10
I’ve made this recipe a couple of times now. It’s very tasty– the flavors remind me of strawberry shortcake. I reduced the sugar by 1/2 cup and omitted the drizzle in favor of a little powdered sugar sprinkled over the top and it was still plenty sweet. Next time I want to try adding a bit more strawberries so that there’s the potential for one in every bite.
This Fresh Strawberry Bundt Cake Recipe seems super delicious and amazing . Super excited to try this unique recipe, thanks for sharing this recipe with us . Will definitely gonna try this one.
This cake turned out fine and the recipe makes a flavorful cake. This ended up being a VERY full bundt tin so it took a long time to bake and I would definitely not recommend reducing the oven temp. It took a full 90 minutes before the toothpick came out clean and probably could have done 10 minutes more, unless it was still at 375. I’d make this again, but adjust.
This is one of my favorite recipes for cake! The cake is so moist and the lemon flavor keeps it bright! Do you think the base recipe for the batter would work for a regular cake like vanilla or chocolate?
Awesome cake! My family loved it! Question if I don’t plan on freezing what’s better, putting it in fridge or leaving it out?
This was delicious! My husband, who hates bundt cakes, asked for seconds and made me promise to make it again.
Made this today! It smells delicious and lemony!
Saved the berries to put on cake as a sauce because some people just want berries and cream on the outside!

I have made this several times and it’s delicious! Made it again recently and used blueberries instead of strawberries and loved it.
How would this do to use Splenda and Almond Flour doing all to make as diet friendly, if there’s such a thing. Just bought 2 flats of strawberries yesterday and started a diet last month losing 11 lbs. don’t want to find it back. As a lot of us know that is so easy to do. This looks and sounds so yummy!!
Hi Terry,
You can use any 1-to-1 ratio sugar substitute in this recipe. However, pure almond flour is not a great idea. The cake will have a strange dense crumbly texture. I’m not sure if you are trying to follow a gluten-free or paleo diet, but there are some really good diet-friendly baking mixes out there that can be used in place of all-purpose flour. Check out the options from Bob’s Red Mill and King Authur, that best suit your diet. :)
My husband, who loves strawberries, told me this is the best cake he has ever had! It is delicious! Easy, Peasy! I have made it 3 times and I want to try blueberries next time! Think it would be luscious with the lemon!! Ty for the recipe! A “Keeper”!
Laura, I just made it with blueberries yesterday and it was delicious! I want to try blackberries sometime too.

Is the yogurt measurement fluid oz or weight?
Hi Eric,
You can use a standard measuring cup for the yogurt, not a liquid cup.
Yummy……looks so delicious and moist. I can’t wait to give it a try. Perfect cake for Sunday brunch. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe with us.
This cake is AMAZING! I usually sub blueberries in instead of strawberries but everyone who has tried this begs me to make it again. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe with us!
I halved the recipe and baked it in a 10 inch round pan. Took more than 75 min and still couldn’t achieve that texture in the middle. Sides got baked fine but the middle part was a problem. Please guide. I don’t have a bundt pan
It’s a clearly stated BUNDT pan cake. That means you use a Bundy pan.😂
I have made this cake 4 times now, such a crowd pleaser!! Perfect summer cake. Instructions are so easy to follow. I did want to try to make this into cupcakes. Any tips on baking time and using paper cups vs silicone ones? Thanks!
Hey I really would love to try this recipe. If it’s alright, I’m going to print it off. Thank you so much!
This cake is delicious! No frosting needed!
It used one 9in round pan. I omitted 1/4 cup of the flour.
used 1 cup almond flour with 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
sprinkled in pumpkin pie spice and add a teaspoon of vanilla.
Next time I will try strawberry yogurt to see if it gives the cake more strawberry flavor.
So Yummy cake, the perfect cake for Sunday brunch. I must try it.
Thanks for the share.
I made this and followed the recipe to the letter. It tasted ok, but had a heavy pound cake like texture. Just was way to heavy. Heavy to the point of being doughy. Will not make again
Can you use frozen berries in this recipe?
Hi Janice,
Yes, you can! :)
10/10 the best cake ever! This recipe has been loved by everyone I’ve made it for. I’ve tried it with 1 to 1 gluten free flour, blueberry flavored yogurt, dairy free yogurt, and added various berries. Every time it has been perfect! It also freezes wonderfully. Can’t recommend this recipe enough!
I made this in May with freshly picked strawberries. I baked it in 2 half bundt cakes. I gave one away and froze the other. On Sept 3 I defrosted it for dinner. Wow. I loved it. But I forgot what recipe I used. So I opened my recipe book and remembered it was this cake. This is now my favorite strawberry cake. I am sure it tastes great freshly cooked, but it tasted great last night months later.
I froze it with the glaze on and covered with foil and then put in ziplock bag.
Hello! Can you use frozen berries instead of fresh in this recipe? So excited to try it!
Yummy……looks so delicious and moist. I can’t wait to give it a try. Perfect cake for Sunday brunch. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe with us.
So my cake turned out flat instead of a beautiful tall Bundt cake. I believe the baking soda is a mistake and should have been baking powder
I baked this today and it turned out amazing! So freakin’ good!
Hi,
This recipe looks great! Do you think it will work out well if I cut the sugar in half by using 1/2 cup of white and 1/2 cup of brown sugar?
Hi Abi,
Yes, you can definitely reduce the sugar and/or add in some brown sugar. The only thing I might note is that reducing sugar will change the texture a bit… The cake will be slightly less soft on the inside and crisp around the edges. Some people add in apple sauce or additional yogurt when reducing sugar to compensate.
Hi. I’ve made this cake several times and have gotten rave reviews! It’s so good! Can I freeze it? If so, would I freeze it with the glaze on or add the glaze once thawed? Thank you!
I haven’t made this cake, but will be very shortly!! I will post a pic and review of it!! What about using raspberries, blackberries or blueberries?? Sounds really good to me😀
I’ve made it with blueberries and it’s delicious!!
This cake was so moist and perfectly flavored!!! Thank you so much!!
Made this cake and it turned out beautifully. So light and perfect crumb. Very good! Exactly what I want out of a cake. But there was a weird issue and wondered if anyone had ideas about it. When you taste the cake without the strawberries, it was wonderful. If you pull out a strawberry from the cake and eat it alone-good. But when you eat the cake & the strawberry in one bite, it was weird. I cant describe the flavor-not chemical or floury-just weird. All of us who tried it had the same experience. I don’t think it’s the recipe. But does anyone have ideas of how to fix this issue? The cake is too good to abandon this recipe.
Just an update – after the cake cooled overnight we no longer tasted the strange flavor from the strawberries. In fact, it was delightful & still moist the second day. 😁.
Can I make it in a regular round pan? I don’t have a bundt pan. Please reply
Hi Zoya,
Yes, you can. Baking time will most likely be around 25-30 minutes. Jiggle that pans and add time if needed. :)
Can you use Splenda instead of sugar
Hi Jody,
You can use any alternative sweetener you like as long as it is 1-to-1 ratio to the sugar.
The best bunt I’ve ever had. I even subed the strawberries for blueberries and both variations are amazing.
I made this cake for Easter this year as the cake for strawberry shortcake. I did not make the glaze, and just dusted the top with powdered sugar. It was a hit!! I used honey vanilla flavored greek yogurt.
I made a half recipe of this cake in a 7×2 cake pan, batter was very thick…I put parchment paper on pan bottom… sprayed paper and sides of pan with baking spray…pan was quite full, probably lacked 1/4 inch to be totally full. At 325 after 50 minutes, the cake had risen a little over top of pan and was browning well…i had read another commenter used a 6″ pan and cooked 40 min…so, I tested it…center was wet and mushy..far from done…so I turned the heat up to 350 and tented with foil so it wouldn’t burn…5 min went by…decided it would be better to turn heat to 300 and cook longer like I do my pound cakes…the foil had stuck to cake already…ugh. Anyway, tented foil over cake and cooked a total of 83 minutes. It was done! I used a Yoplait strawberry yogurt 6 oz as I had no Greek yogurt…no problem with releasing cake from pan after cooling…it was beautiful…took it to a potluck…served with whip cream on side. I found this to be a good cake, not sweet at all…many compliments on the texture of the strawberries in the cake…tasty and evenly distributed…most ate it without whipped cream. I will make this again. Want to try with other fruits.
Halved the recipe (with 2 eggs) to make in my 6 cup bundt pan for 40 minutes at 325 and it is the most moist cake I’ve ever tasted and trust me i have taste tested many!!
Thank you for this recipe; it’s definitely going in my midnight-cake-baking-recipes stash.
I made this recipe last year and loooooved it! Hubby already requested it again for his bday.
Wondered if you’ve ever tried it in mini bundt pans? Any thoughts on the bake time or anything else to change?
Made as a gift for family. They loved it! Moist and hint of lemon was a hit! Had enough batter to make myself a small sample cake! Yum! Will make again!
Pingback: 2 Ingredient Strawberry Cake · The Typical Mom
I would love to make this recipe. It looks delightful! Have you ever tried puréeing the strawberries first? My daughter will not eat desserts with chunks of fruit, so I was wondering if that might work.
This recipe is so good! I’ve never made a bundt cake and I followed the recipe exactly. It turned out awesome! I’m super impressed with myself and this delish cake! Thanks for the great recipe!! I couldn’t fit all the batter in the pan, so I made a few cupcakes! Amazing!!
This cake is AMAZING! Even just the cake alone no glaze is perfect.,
I’m going to bake this bundt cake later today. It looks super duper yummy! I cant wait to bake it later!
The glaze is coming out really thick, is there anything we should do?
Otherwise it’s amazing!!!
Beautiful and so delish! Thanks for sharing, I cannot wait for strawberries to be in season here so I can bust this out. Love it!
Thank you for this recipe. I will probably have to refrigerate leftovers, correct?
Hi Kate!
You can cover it and keep it at room temperature for a couple of days. However, after that, it will need to be refrigerated.
Very delicious and moist cake. Thanks for the recipe! It’s perfect and I’ll definitely be making this again!
You could try coating the strawberries in corn starch or flour before mixing them into the batter, it usually helps them not sink to the bottom.
Hi! It’s was my first bundt cake, I made it with my three year olds using a sweetener instead of sugar.
It turned out delicious, it slid out of the pan very easily and it was super fun to bake. Thank you!
Made a tester cake today. Will be making for my husband birthday. Cake came out delicious! Thank you!!
I forgot to add stars!
Did you reduce the temperature when you put the cake in the oven? I’ve been caught out with that before and luckily have picked up halfway through and popped foil over the top to stop it crisping up
This Cake Was A Hit With My Family!!! I’m Making Another One Tomorrow!!! Thank You!!!
Pingback: 1st Blogiversary & Rose Strawberry Hibiscus Mille Crepe Cake | Sift & Simmer
One of the BEST cakes I have ever made!! So moist with a touch of crunchy on the outer crust of the cake. I only had low-fat strawberry Greek yogurt so that is what I used and it was PERFECTION!! The lemon drizzle takes it over the top and hubby and kids already asking me to make it again. Worthy of 10 stars ⭐️
I have two questions: can salted butter be used?
Can the Greek yogurt be low fat?
Hi Keri,
Yes and yes! ;)
Amazing, I love the addition of the Greek yogurt…it makes the creamiest, moistest, and most delicious cake I’ve ever eaten. Fantastic!!
I have a question about the temperature, you preheat the oven to 375 then after you put the cake in the oven you reduce the oven to 325.
Hi Richard,
Yes, doing this helps create a good crust on the exterior while the oven is very hot the first few minutes of baking. Then the lower temperature provides a nice even bake. :)
Could you make this in muffin tins?
I love this cake. I wonder if I could make it as muffins.
Hello, this recipe sounds like it’ll be amazing but I was wondering if I could use cooking oil to replace butter in this recipe? Thanks
Hi Stephanie,
Yes, you can use vegetable oil or shortening in the recipe, if needed.
I made this cake after strawberry picking with my kids and it was delicious! Served it to guests and they loved it as well! I had to make it with gluten-free flour bc I can’t eat gluten…but kept everything else the same and it was perfect! I’m planning on making it again with blueberries instead of strawberries! Thanks for the great recipe!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this cake! Easy and so very delicious! Just added to my recipe book. Will be making it for years to come! Can it be made using any other fruits? Just wondering incase i wanted to make when strawberries are out of season
I used greek yogurt and finely diced (some of them going soft) strawberries. I did not have a lemon to zest so I added 1/2 tsp of lemon extract to the batter. The cake came out light and beautiful. For the icing, I mixed together some more of the yogurt, lemon juice, and powdered sugar – yum!
Can I make this is a 13×9 pan?
Hi there,
Sure! Just be sure to leave about 1/2 inch room at the top of the pan, for expansion. The cake will also bake much faster. After 20 minutes, check the cake every 10 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
What if I want to use a mini Bundts Pan how would I modify recipe? Thanks
Hi Teaira,
I have not tested this specific recipe with mini bundt pans. However, most MBP recipes state to bake for 15-20 minutes. Hope this helps!
Really really good! One of our new favorites! I buttered the bundt pan and then coated with sugar, gave it a delicious texture.
This cake is so delicious!! I quadrupled the icing and poured it in the center after covering the cake. When I sliced a piece I put more icing on it. It was so yummy with 2 scoops of Blue bell vanilla ice cream.
I made this for my sister’s birthday and it was PHENOMENAL!!! We all loved it and within 2 days it was gone!
I used strawberry flavoured yogurt instead of plain or vanilla and it really elevated that strawberry flabour to new heights! Simply amazing, I will definately come back to this soon!
5/5 stars and I just wish I could put more

This was delicious! Mine turned out nice and moist! My husband said it was the best Bundt cake he had ever had! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Thank you for the recipe!! I was wondering if I could use lemon extract instead of the lemon zest?
Hi Shauna,
Sure! I would guess 1/2 – 1 teaspoon would be enough.
I’ve made this cake twice, once with fresh strawberries and once with fresh strawberries and frozen blueberries. My husband loves it and my sister in law said it was the best cake she’d had in a long time. I don’t thaw the frozen fruit, just toss it in a little flour and gently fold it into the batter. I also put some right on top of the batter. Next time I’m trying it with frozen blackberries. Excellent cake.
Made this and it worked really well. I saved some strawberries to decorate and it looked amazing (wish I could upload a foto to show off a little :) ). Even two days after baking it was still juicy and delicious!
Just fyi the conversion into the metric system is not correct. This is probably not your fault, but the website’s. Would be great if that was to change as it would make baking outside of the US so much easier.
Would it be possible to use 1/2 strawberry and 1/2 blueberry?
Hi Sue,
Sure, that sounds delicious! Please let me know how it turns out. :)
I made this cake twice, once for us and once for a party. I didn’t put the glaze on my cake but I did put it on the party cake. The cake had completely cooled but when I poured the glaze on it just sort of melted into the cake. Still tasted great but just didn’t look as nice as I wanted it to look. Why did this happen? I followed the recipe exactly.
Can frozen strawberries be used?
Hi Maddie,
Yes, you can use frozen strawberries as long as you can tell they are going to be sweet. (Sometimes the frozen berries are frozen before they are fully ripened. Happy Baking! :)
I substituted the Greek yogurt for strawberry yogurt and substituted the lemon juice for vanilla flavoring. This is amazing!!!!!
I used 1/2 plain greek yogurt and 1/2 strawberry greek yogurt and doubled the lemon juice in the batter. I had zero problems with my strawberries sinking. Absolutely delicious and a big hit!
this looks delicious! I wonder, can sour cream be substituted for the yogurt?
Hi Val,
Yes, sour cream is a great substitution. :)
I made this cake and it did not cook all the way. i even put the temp higher and cooked it longer but it was still not done. Help please ?
Hi Jamara,
I would guess your oven needs to be calibrated. Hang a new oven thermometer in your oven to check how far off the temperature is. Then pull up a calibration video (on youtube) for your oven model. It’s usually pretty easy to adjust.
Impressive!! Great way to use the locally fresh picked strawberries from our area. Will make again! Thank you 😊
Novice bakers here…My son and I made this cake last night and iced it this AM…after icing it we placed the cake dome over it and walked away…came back to the kitchen a bit later and it has all melted off the cake and pooled in the center or off the edges of the cake stand! What did we do wrong?! LOL
Hi Kristi,
It sounds like your cake was still warm, but you mentioned you iced it hours later. Do you live is a very warm climate?
Hello Kristi,
The reason the icing melted off is because you put the dome back on top of the cake. The dome will trap the moisture that is normally released from the cake and this moisture will melt the icing. If you leave the dome off the icing will remain firm. Once you pour the icing on the cake, it will take about 20 minutes to set. Once icing is set, if the cake is closed in a air tight container, the traped moisture will melt the sugar icing. Hope this was helpful.
I followed the recipe, except that I cut down sugar to 1.5 cup from 2 cups. The cake turned out very very dense on the side. I searched online and various mistakes I could have made including the butter wasn’t in room temperature, over creaming, to even baking soda quality. I loved the flavor of this cake, I’m just wondering if the recipe will yield a light and fluffy cake after I adjust everything on my side, or the recipe is actually going for a more dense texture??
Hi Olivia,
Bundt cakes are traditionally dense cakes, like pound cake. If you are looking for a light fluffier strawberry cake, we’ve got a fabulous strawberry layer cake you should try: https://www.aspicyperspective.com/fresh-strawberry-cake-from-scratch/
This cake so good. I substitute sour cream in place of yogurt. I refrigerate it..
It tasted wonderful!!!! It looked pitiful. It fell all apart. I followed instructions by flouring etc…including changing temp from 375 to 325.
HI! Does it have to be greek yogurt? Would plain nonfat yogurt work?
Hi Kathy,
Yes, you can make this cake with plain nonfat yogurt. Happy baking! :)
I am planning on turning this into a mini birthday cake. I’ve baked it as a bundt cake many times before and have absolutely loved it. Do you know if I can bake it in small cake pans (6 inch and 4 inch) and what temperature and time it would take?
Hi Ashley,
Great idea! Use the same oven temperature. Although I haven’t made this recipe in mini pans, I would guess the baking time would be around 20 minutes. I would check them at 18 minutes, then bake longer if needed.
This recipe is wonderful – perfect balance of sweetness to tart. I am not a dessert person but absolutely love this and will make again. My kids – who LOVE dessert – want again as well. Also – I used thick Greek yogurt, plain – feel like the strawberries were balanced evenly thru the cake. I also added 1 tspn of vanilla extract as wish I had vanilla yogurt. Very moist. Highly suggest you give it a go.
Amazing, I loved it. Was unsure of how it would taste but I had a whole lotta strawberries and went with it. I’m glad I did! It’s like a cousin of angel food cake, but I felt like there was something missing to give it that extra pop. I’m gonna mess around with the recipe a bit More but it was superb nonetheless. Easy recipe
QUESTION: I’m gluten and sugar-free. Planning on substituting coconut flour, then for sugar…substituting about 70% Swerve, 20% honey or maple syrup and 10% sugar. (I’m not diabetic, I can tolerate a little sugar, but not much.)
Anyone have experience with these substitutions on this recipe? Suggestions? Other substitutions? I have other flours on hand…cassava and I think Amaranth flour, and I have plenty of raw almonds to make almond flour (but I’ve heard almond FLOUR is a good bit harder and more time-consuming to make than almond meal, which I can’t imagine would be good in any cake.). I also have Swerve confectioner’s sugar on hand to use about 80% for the icing.
Thanks. looking forward to enjoying this cake.
Easy, gorgeous, and totally delicious — you can’t go wrong with this cake!
I am all about the strawberries these days. Was just looking for a way to use up a bunch of fresh strawberries I bought, and I think this is perfect!
This cake is one of the most fresh cakes I have tasted in a while! The bits of strawberry inside the bake is so good!
This cake is delicious! It is light and very moist. I used vanilla yogurt. I wonder if Strawberry or lemon yogurt would be good.
This is my go to recipe for any function. It is fresh and delicious and super simple to make! Hands down one of my favorites!!
*Note* I prefer the taste of Lime over Lemon so I always substitute Lime into the recipe.
I just put this into the recipe builder on WW, it came out to 15 points per serving!! Although it looks amazing…it’s not what I would consider WW friendly.
How many WW points is this?

This is one of my families FAVORITE cake. Even though I’m not supposed to eat it, I’ve f course tried it and it’s hard not to gobble up the whole cake🤦🏼♀️ . I make this several times a year during strawberry season. Thank you so much for this recipe.
Did you do anything special to get the bundt cake to release? Did you cook it exactly as directed or did you make some changes? I’m just trying to figure out why mine didn’t come out of the bundt pan. It is a coated pan and usually I don’t have any issue.
I have made this for the past several years. It’s a family favorite. My niece loves it so much that I made 18 bundt cakes for her wedding. One cake on each table!!! I have recently turned it into a layer cake as well. It’s so moist and delicious!!

I soooo wanted to make this but was short/missing a few ingredients, so I winged it. No lemon zest so I substituted 1 tsp lemon extract in the wet ingredients. I only had 1 small package of low fat strawberry yougurt, so I used that & added 2 Tbsp sour cream. Finally I baked for 75 minutes total. It turned out great! Next time, I might add even more strawberries.
Everyone loves when I fix this cake. And they all want the recipe! Good job girl this one is a winner!!!

I did this cake almost more than 20 times!!
The first 2 times came out perfectly, but then each time when I try to get it out of the pan it sticks so I end up with a split cake, half comes out & the other half is sticking into the pan.
What’s going wrong??
Hi Meril,
Hmmm… That’s so strange. Especially since it came out of the pan the first couple times. I still think it’s a pan issue. If it’s old and you put it in the dishwasher on high heat, it may have effected the nonstick surface.
That is exactly what happened to me. I have not put my bundt pan in the dishwasher and it’s coating fully intact.
Pingback: Mini Strawberry Bundt Cakes with Lemon Glaze – clean plate clb
This is GORGEOUS and I bet it’s delicious too! What a clever recipe!
What kind of pan can I use if I don’t have a bunt pan?
I tried the cake several times but I always find it a challenge to get the cake out of the pan as 1 whole cake, either the top of the cake sticks to the pan n cuts in half of the whole cake comes out in pieces. Advices please
Hi Meril,
Sorry you’re having issues here. Is your bundt pan old? It might be time to retire the pan and buy a new one with a better non-stick coating.
Sorry for reposting again but I just saw your comment.
The pan is like 1 or 1.5 years old n I haven’t used it for any other recipes except this one so I consider it new somehow.
I’ve used today even a non-stick spray from Wilston but yet it came out aweful :/
I used around 13 tablespoon of Greek yoghurt & 2 cups of strawberries
My boys love strawberries, I can’t wait to bake this cake for them!
Pingback: Strawberry Banana Smoothie (Five Minutes and Five Ingredients)
Absolutely scrumptious! Thanks for the great recipe!
I’ve made this cake three times now and it’s amazing EVERY SINGLE TIME!! I’ve modified very slightly the recipe by adding blueberries and little more lemon zest and juice to the batter. Probably one of the best cakes I’ve every made. Always a crowd pleaser!
This recipe caught my eye and so i tried it. The results were amazing and the strawberry yogurt cake has now become our favorite. We have lots of yogurt owing to the huge mil production and we might just make this commercial.
I’ve never felt compelled to comment on a recipe I’ve tried before – but this recipe is exceptional! Since originally making it earlier this week, we’ve already made other variations (Blueberry, cinnamon, orange & cranberry) and each is as good as the first. The fruit didn’t sink, we had no problem with the bundt pan, and I’ve never had a richer lemon flavor in a cake – ever!
We did feel the need to bake much longer than the recipe calls for – almost 2 hours each time. Maybe that’s because of the added moisture from the fruit? I’m not sure, but it’s not a problem, by any means. This cake is fantastic!
I have probably made this thirty times.
I’ve served it to company and have given it for a gift.
I usually make two at a time and freeze one.
I have made it withstrawberries, blueberries and raspberries.
Comes out perfect every time and the fans go wild over it.
Thank you for this recipe. It’s the best!😍

could we substitute strawberries with frozen blueberries so we can have the same foolproof recipe in other versions?

We did just that and the result was as delicious as the original. :)
I was wondering the same! Strawberries make my dad’s stomach hurt sometimes, so i will try the blueberries :) Did you use the same amount of blueberries as strawberries in the recipe, i’m assuming?

Excellent cake. Very moist and not as heavy as I thought it would be. I’m a big fan of dense cakes, so this was perfect. Made as two 8-inch layers to use as a birthday cake. Honestly, you don’t really need any embellishments to this. It’s really good as is. Thank you for the great recipe.

I been making this cake for about 4 years- it is my go-to dessert for parties, picnics, and potlucks. My kids ask for it for every get-together, and everyone always asks for the recipe. I’m not usually a fan of sweets and cakes, but this one is a winner for everyone! Just follow the instructions- it’s garaunteed to be a hit!
I’m making this my go to summer time cake!!! The batter tastes amazing . The cake ( once it was done) was so moist and flavorful, great with ice cream.
I made this for Easter and it’s very good. I tasted more lemon than strawberry. I think next time I’ll use a strawberry yogurt and a strawberry glaze. It’s very moist and I like the lemon, was just wanting more of the berry flavor. I will definitely add this to my dessert recipe book.
Awesome cake!!!!!! Followed the recipe and it turned out perfect. I did have to bake about 15 minutes longer and turned my oven up to 335 degrees because I noticed it wasn’t rising good at 325. Once I adjusted temp it started rising good. All ovens are different. The flavor and texture is wonderful. Just as I like my cakes!

I’m making two today for my husband’s residents. And I know they will love these cake as much as we do. Please, please, please try this unforgettable cake.
Hello, love the recipe!! but it’s funny how my grandma made the same cake for years using sour cream, but the calorie intake was too high, then switch it to yogurt. As time has past now we make it with greek yogurt but switch back once in awhile to use sour cream and also we add what ever berry is in season. The cake is delicious !!
This cake is amazing. I made it 2 times this week, I wanted to test it for a dinner party. My husband just raved over it. I used Greek Gods HONEY greek yogurt, and reduced the sugar by 1/4 cup. Yummy !
This cake is delicious! Made it tonight and it will be a new go to recipe for me. Realized I didn’t have powdered sugar at the last moment but was able to improvise with sugar and a bit of cornstarch blended in my ninja for a few. Worked perfectly. I think the oven temp change when you put it in definitely helped get that perfect crisp on the bottom. Thanks for the great recipe!
I made this two different ways both time using strawberry and pureed cooked rhubarb. With both ways, I needed to cook the cake almost twice as long. Next time I will reduce the amount of yogurt by the amount of rhubarb puree.
1) Gluten free – came out wonderfully
2) regula all purpose flour – also came out wonderfully
If you don’t like a really moist cake – then you will need to reduce some of the yogurt to compensate for the rhubarb.
Cake was moist and delicious! Thanks for the receive…this one is a keeper.
Made it first with strawberries and then a second time with blueberries. Both are awesome!!
Great cake, easy to make but one flaw in recipe. List 8 ounces vanilla, I assumed it meant vanilla yogurt. For a novice cook may not realize this.

Yes. I made it in a 9×13 pan. It required a bit more bake time than a regular sheet cake (I think this was due to the additional moistness of the strawberries). Still turned out well!

Thanks so much in advance!
Hi! I have made this cake before and it is delicious but I’m wondering if you think using blueberries would work just as well as strawberries.
Hi,
I’v made this cake twice & I must say holy mackerel this is the best cake, so good I couldn’t stop eating it. It turned out perfect . I used sour cream instead of yogurt just because I didn’t have any.
I also used your magic release for cake pans. Have tons of plums on our tree so going to try the plum cake on your site. Thanks ever so much for great receipe ‘s.
I substituted regular sour cream for the yogurt and it turned out delicious. The batter was thick, but not overly so, and filled my 10 cup bundt nearly to the top, so I was worried, but it didn’t overflow. It took about 10 extra minutes in my convection oven before I got a clean toothpick. When I ate a slice, I thought it could even have gone an extra 5 for a total of 15. I also doubled the glaze, with another cup of powered sugar and some heavy cream. I may have used more strawberries too!

I was so looking forward to this cake since the batter was fluffy and downright delicious, but when I pulled it out of the oven it started sinking in the middle, and sinking, and sinking more. Then when I flipped it to cool, the top was a mushy mess that collapsed. It’s definitely cooked all the way through, but has far too much moisture to hold up in the end. I followed the author’s advice and didn’t worry about the moisture, but it needs some tweaking before it’s a reliable recipe. But boy oh boy, the flavor is fantastic. Despite the structural failure, I’m still looking forward to icing what’s there and trying a piece for dinner later. Work on the moisture bit and this cake is the bomb!
Any thoughts on substituting blueberries. I have made this cake and it was wonderful! Was thinking of trying with blueberries for Father’s Day as hubby loves blueberries.

hi! Looks like i’m a few years late on trying this recipe! :) I got some strawberries and greek yogurt from Costco because for some reason I thought I could ingest 32 oz of greek yogurt??? the costco disease – i have it. Buying random stuff in bulk. anyway, i digress. I made this recipe using FAGE greek yogurt 0% from costco. I also pulsed the strawberries in a food processor so they were tiny pcs…this yielded a pink color through the cake. The batter was thick but the cake baked perfectly after 1 hr and 10 mins.
I learned a trick – instead of greasing and flouring a pan, i use a mix of cinnamon and sugar instead of the flour. (cinnamon doesn’t necessarily go with strawberry but i did it anyway)…
then i took the cake out of the oven…let it sit for a few mins, then emptied it. The cinnamon sugar gives a nice sweet crisp crust on top.
then after cooling i added the icing.
Thanks – perfect recipe.

I stumbled upon this recipe about a week and a half ago through the I Heart Naptime blog (old post), and I used it for a cake bake-off contest with my friends. Though our cake had 2 other flavors along with this one, I have a sneaking suspicion that this strawberry cake is the reason we won the taste category by more than double the points. It was incredible! I’m typically a chocolate only type of girl-I don’t usually even waste my time eating any other flavors of cake, ice cream, desserts in general. However, I have been pretty much dreaming about this cake since I made it, and I am desperate for a reason to make it again (a reason other than ‘I just desperately want it,’ because that would result in my eating the entire thing all by myself which probably isn’t the best plan)!

Hello!
First of all, thank you for this wonderful recipe, your cake looks amazing and its been on my mind for a while. I have some friends over tonight, so I decided it is a good occasion to try it.
I am in Europe, and it took me some time to convert everything to grams, ml and Celsius… the only thing I could not measure was the strawberries. My cake turned out way too wet, and it took forever to bake through. I will have to introduce it as a ‘strawberry lemon pudding’ I guess, but it still tastes amazing.
While making it, I couldn’t believe how little flour you use, but I decided to stick to the recipe. Next time will put less strawberries and more flour I guess.
Thank you!!!!

Delicious. Made a few changes though. Used orange zest and freshly squeezed orange juice instead of lemon. used 3 strawberry GoGurts instead of plain or vanilla because that’s all I had on hand. And I don’t have a bundt pan so I used 9×13 instead. Same temp. Took 30mins in my oven.
Made this today for my family. It came out way too lemony. It almost tasted like a lemon cake with some strawberries rather than a strawberry cake. It might be helpful to list what size lemon to use in the recipe and exactly how much zest (in Tbsp) Apparently a large lemon is not correct. Overall great cake, excellent consistency, but too much lemon.

Could you use splenda in place of the sugar?
Hi Alicia, I don’t ever use Splenda, but you could certainly try it! If you do, let me know how it turns out. :)

After reading all the comments about the difficulty of this cake sticking to the pan, I did what I’ve found to really work. After greasing the Bundt pan with shortening, I use purchased, plain regular breadcrumbs instead of flour. Since I discovered this method, I’ve never had any problems. Thank you for this cake recipe! So delicious! Have used blueberries, too!

Wow! Just made this cake and have yet to try it, but it came out beautifully. Just like the picture! Can’t wait to try it. Thanks!
How many cups is 12 oz. of diced strawberries? I buy strawberries from the farmer’s market and they are not in packages with oz. listed on the front. Thanks!
8oz = 1 cup, so therefore 12oz = 1.5 cups.
I have made this cake 4 times and it is delicious but I can’t get it to stop sticking to the bottom of the pan so I have a mess!! I do grease and flower and my bundt pan is not very old. Any other suggestions?
Hmmm… my bundt pan is a Wilton and has a heavy non-stick seal. The main reason why a bundt cake might not come out of the pan (other than not greasing and flouring) is not letting it rest in the pan long enough. Make sure the cake rests AT LEAST 20 minutes before flipping. If you are doing that and are still having a problem, try letting it sit for 30 minutes or so. Also, some people really love Bakers Joy non-stick spray for pans. Hope this helps!!
This is delicious! Mine got darker on the outside than yours which wasn’t as visually appealing. Any suggestions? I tried taking the next one out earlier but it wasn’t done.
Hmmm…. it makes me wonder about your bundt pan. Is it very old?
Delicious! Baked up perfectly and the whole family loved it. My son always wants strawberry cake for his birthday and I have yet to find one that I really like. This one has potential to be tried as birthday cake later this year!
We had friends over for dinner yesterday and I made this for dessert. I used plain Greek yogurt and reduced the sugar by 1/3cup and it turned out amazing! I saw that some people had trouble with it sticking so I greased and floured the heck out of my pan and had no issue. Will definitely be making again, and experimenting with different fruits. Thank you for sharing!

Delicious! I used orange zest and freshly squeezed orange juice instead of lemon, blueberry yogurt instead of plain Greek yogurt, and baked in mini loaf pans for 40mins. I’ll be making this again. Thanks for the recipe!
I didn’t read the part about turning down the oven until the cake was in for approx 40 minutes. What effect will this have on the end product? I will probably know by the time you can reply, but i put a lot of love into making this and am hoping it can be salvaged. I turned the oven down to 315 just to hopefully help the situation out.

Pingback: Fresh Strawberry Yogurt Cake - Seven Foods Of Heaven
Tasty – kids loved it! Took way longer than 60 minutes (maybe 75-80?) and stuck to the bottom of the bundt even though it was greased. Should I have kept at at 375 longer? I preheated it until it reached that temp – then changed it to 325 as directed) right as I put it in.
Only changes: I used a 1/4 cup less of sugar and 10 (versus the 12) oz of fresh strawberries.
Also glaze didn’t dry all professional looking like yours!
Any suggestions?? Still delicious!

In the oven as I write! Do you think the cake will last 3 days before eating or do you think it is best to freeze? Any thoughts as to if I should keep it in the fridge or not if I don’t freeze? Thanks!
Hi Candice, It should be fine for 3 days in the fridge. Hope you like it!
Have made this recipe several times with raspberries. Love it even better.
I just made this, this morning using blueberries instead… (hubs is allergic to strawberries) and it was AMAZING! I was testing this recipe out for our upcoming vacation to Colorado and it will be perfect! SO glad to have found this recipe!

Have you ever made it as cupcakes or put frosting on it? My daughter wants strawberry cupcakes for her birthday.
Can I use another type of cake pan on this ? I don’t have a bundt
I’ve made this cake several times now and LOVE it. As does everyone who has tasted it. I recently made it into mini cupcakes, (without the fresh strawberries) with lemon cream cheese icing. YUMMY!!!!! Big hit. Thank you for my new go-to cake.
I made the cake tonight…i think it came out a little to wet..maybe i use too many strawberrys…all n all…i do like the cake…very good flavor.

I just have a question: i did not use the bundt pan,so I used a regular round pan (an aluminun one) and when i turned it out,a thin layer of the cake was left there…it didn’t destroy my cake,but the appearence could be prettier.
Any thoughts on how to avoid this?

Can i use strawberry greek yogurt? And do you think it would work with crushed pineapple added in the batter? Thanks! Sounds amazing!
Hi Cindy, yes to both questions!
This recipe looks so tasty I can’t wait to try it, just one problem: I don’t have a Bundt pan! What size cake tin can i use instead for good results?
I would try two bread pans. :)
Wow, I just made this, and I gotta say, this is an OUTSTANDING recipe. This cake turned out *super moist* with great flavor & with a lovely & subtle tang from the lemon – delicious! Thanks again!
Great cake, made it before…this time the top of the cake collapsed….what do you think I did wrong?
Absolutely Delicious. I cut the sugar down to 1cup and cooked for 45 minutes. The whole family loved it. Definitely a keeper.
I tried this with peach instead of strawberries – perfection!
Made this for a family event and everyone loved it! I used coconut oil in place of butter, reduced the sugar to 1 1/2 cups, and replaced half the flour with whole wheat. Even with the healthier changes it was moist and delicious!

I made this cake today..it tastes delicious but didn’t rise at all?…not sure what I I’d wrong. Any thoughts?
Madeline, you may need to replace your leavening agents. Things like baking soda and baking powder lose their lift power over time.
Made this for the second time. My wife just loves it! Is there an easy way to
Freeze this cake? Great recipe!
Pete, wrap it well with plastic wrap , then foil. :)
A friend of mine made this with strawberries and it was delicious. I made my first one using a pound (after seeding) of fresh apricots and it turned out great! I love the yogurt and lemon in it. I’ve been searching high and low for something to do with fresh apricots, so this is definitely a keeper.
I also want to mention the directions were good. I did mess up and only use 2 and 1/4 c of flour, but it didn’t make any difference. Maybe the apricots are not as juicy – they weren’t overripe. I used a bundt pan and followed the temperature directions as written.

Just made the recipe today! Very delicious! I think I will play around with different berries or fruit next time. The instructions were easy, although I did have to read them twice before starting. I was thrown off by the different temperatures at first. Start at 375 and then lower to 325 before putting in. This cake is super moist!
Awesome! Just finished my first piece and getting ready to start on my second.
this is confusing; one place you said to heat over to 325 then later it said 375. This is a huge difference. Please confirm heat temperature before I waste my money.
Thank you
Phyllis – it says in the instructions to preheat your oven to 375 and to turn it down to 325 when you put the cake in.
Phyllis,
Yes as KLEE said, in the instructions I have you preheat the oven to a higher temperature, then lower the heat to help form a good exterior crust without over-baking and drying out the cake. :)
So i Just finishing making this cake but haven’t tried it yet, looks delicious though. However, when I let it cool for 20 minutes, it flattened. It has rounded and puffed up in the oven and as soon as i put it to cool, it flattened a little.
I did not use a bundt pan so im not leaving it upside down…..maybe this cake is only good with bundt pans?
Thanks for the recipe! My mom had really reccommended this one to me!
do you have a carb count on this recipe?

wondering if anyone used rhubarb for this recipe
Just a question–can this cake be frozen for future use????
not working. at all. batter was amazing but it’s not cooking in the oven. I”m using a 10′ Cake tin, it’s not cooking in the centre at all. A crust developed on the cake but the insides are all runny and liquified. I followed the instructions to a tee and i’m very upset about this
HELP!
Not sure why this didn’t work for you! :( I made it a couple days ago for a family get-together and it turned out perfect! Try again, ok? If it turns out the 2nd time, you’ll be glad you tried again. It’s soooo worth it! Good stuff!
Made this today for our Memorial Day meal and it was amazing! It’s a keeper! Thank you for sharing.
Making this now; the batter is thick and delicious. The recipe is easy to follow and fun to make. Thanks for the recipe!
I have this in the oven now. The batter was thick and oh so yummy. It will be out of the oven in half an hour and I am so excited. Having a group of friends over for music and dessert later this evening. I didn’t notice till clean-up that my greek yogurt was fat free :( hope it is not a real problem.
How did it turn out? I was thinking fat free too.

I also made this for Mother’s Day…Easy, wonderful blend of flavors. My big mistake .. thought it said cool 10 minutes and tried to take it out. Needs the full 20 minutes. I took the leftovers to work and they all loved it!!!
Loved this cake! I cut the butter in half and subbed half a cup of applesauce. I also cut the sugar in half, because 2 cups seems a lot! I did not make the glaze topping. It was delicious even with my ‘healthier’ changes. It was a big hit at my Mother’s Day dinner. And got lots of compliments. i will be making this again.
Maybe is my dyxlexia kicking but this instructions are very confusing
Made this today for Mother’s Day…it was a big hit! It’ll be gone before the end of the day! I really enjoy baking, but I find that a lot of recipes are a huge waste of time and ingredients…this was a wonderful surprise. One question, my mom asked if I could make it with peaches next time, has anyone tried that? Thanks for the fantastic recipe!

I am wanting to make this cake for mothers day. Would it be ok If i made the batter, went to church for two hours, and came back and put it in the oven? Would that effect anything having the batter sit that long?
Carla, I wouldn’t do that because the baking soda may go flat in the time you are gone. You could mix all your wet and dry ingredients in two separate bowls, then combine them when you get home…

Can’t wait to try this. Of course, the Fiesta Ware makes everything better :-)
I am making this tonight as a donation for our school dessert auction tomorrow night. Sadly I won’t get a taste of it, but if the batter is even half as good as the cake…OMG, Delocious!!! I will definitely be making another to keep for my self very soon.
It went for $175 and it was Delish!
I am making this for the second time now. I made it with raspberries both times and it is delicious – I haven’t tried strawberries yet. The batter is very thick as others have said, but the cake is SO moist when it is finished.
I sprayed the pan with Baker”s Joy and it came out no problem, and I have a more intricate bundt pan.
However, mine took WAY longer than an hour in the oven. Maybe 20 minutes longer – I have to keep checking it.
Pingback: Fresh Strawberry Yogurt Cake | Dreamy Blog
Sorry if someone has already asked this but I’m on my phone and unable to take all the time to read the comments. I don’t have one of those pans and I REALLY want to make this so can I use a regular cake pan? How long for the cook time and what temperature if I do. I was thinking about maybe making some extra strawberries with a tiny bit of sugar and let them sit over night so they get saucy and letting people pour some on the cake…okay idea? Or too sweet?
Hi Cassandra, It’s pretty sweet on its own so you may want to try it first before adding toppings. You can definitely make it in loaf pans or as cupcakes/muffins. The baking time will vary quite a bit, so your best bet is to start with 15-20 minutes and then watch it carefully from that point. Be sure to do the toothpick test in the middle so you’ll know for sure if its cooked through. Good Luck!
Have you ever baked it and put it in the freezer for later? I have an event coming up and I have a lot to make. Trying to make lots of things that can be frozen to free up the day of the event.
Kelly,
Did you ever try freezing this? I have the same question, I want to make it for an event in a few weeks and I want to prebake the desserts.
You can definitely freeze this cake. However, I would glaze it after it thaws for the best appearance. Happy Baking!
Looks like a great recipe but when you get to the ingredients they put a Tempura add that just won’t move so sad .
Just made this cake and it is delicious!!! It could be my favorite cake ever!

This cake is so delicious. It’s also very easy to get right! It’s become my go-to cake and every time I make it I get rave reviews! Thanks for this amazing recipe!
The cake is in the oven. I had to use frozen strawberries and coconut sugar. I also just realized I used baking powder rather than baking soda! I’ll let you know what happens! I’m making it for a church board meeting my hubby is hosting tomorrow night. I have a feeling I will be baking another later on today!

I think I had my flowers planted by this time last year!
hi
can i use regular whole milk plain yogurt instead of greek yogurt since thats all i have in hand right now.
Made this last night. It was super delicious! I used both grease and flour and the sides still had some sticking going on.. am I no putting enough on?
Made this cake last night and it turned out fabulous! I used the greek yogurt with the fruit in it, and just put the whole thing in (2 small individual containers). Also used 1 cups Splenda and 1 cup regular sugar. So good that I didn’t need any powdered sugar drizzle.
Thanks for a great recipe!
I finally got around to making this after being in my Pinterest feed for months, and I wish I wouldn’t have waited! It’s amazing :-D also, I made it with stevia so that the amount of sugar is cut in half and also about half the butter… Trust me there was no sacrificing flavor, only calories! I can’t wait to pass this on to my family. Thanks.
This is such a great recipe. I’m on my firth round of it. This time, I left the lemon out and added apples, bacon and cheddar. The best cake recipe ever. Thank you so much.
I just made this cake and when I turned it out, it stuck to the pan….any suggestions?
i had the same problem, it still tasted delicious, but any pointers would be great!
I’m going to be trying this recipe out tonight, but from previous experiences, I’m about positive it has to do with the overall thickness of greek yogurt. Mixing the yogurt with applesauce (or adding a little oil to the mix) has worked for me in the past so I’ll probably do the same thing with this
I just made this cake..it turned out great but it stuck to the pan when I turned it over…any suggestions?
I made this yesterday and it was delicious!!!
My family loved it!! I will deff make again!
I had some 2/$1 a pound strawberries that I didn’t want to go bad, so I whipped this up yesterday. Little did I know I was going to have company. My husband who wanted me to make some pumpkin pie bars (from a box) wasn’t to keen on me making this, but I told him to bad. He had three pieces. It was very good and went together smoothly. The greek yogurt made the batter VERY thick. I even had about 1/8 cup of regular vanilla yogurt.
So there is no baking powder used in this recipe? just baking soda and plain all purpose flour? Looking forward to making this.
You got it Debbie!

Hi,
Thank you for posting this recipe. I hadn’t baked in years and fancied making something, so I tried this, using blueberries instead of strawberries as the shop didn’t have any! It worked really well though and got a lot of compliments.
I used golden caster sugar instead of regular sugar too, and it tasted lovely!
Thanks again
Never mind….I re-read the recipe. :-)
Can you verify the oven temperature? At the beginning it states to preheat the oven at 325 and then in the recipe itself it tells us to preheat the oven to 375.
Thanks to your comment I just realized why mine browned on the outside, I forgot to turn the temp down to 325! Agh. It was still pretty good… Will have to try again.
I made it this morning for my daughter’s birthday party this afternoon… I somehow figured out how much to use since I’m French and we don’t use the same measures… It was soooooooo yummy !! Thank you so much for the reciepe !!
We planted 2 lemon trees and a lime tree this year . Our first time. We don’t know a thing about it . We just are going for it. If they grow they grow and if they don’t well, we tried. We also got 6 chickens . Hens. This is our second set. Our first set that was supposed to be sexed for us ended up being 1 hen and 5 mean roosters. He was in breeding his own. So I learned a valuable lesson. Buy your chickens from a reputable dealer only. The hen got sick and we lost her and I’m trying to get up the nerve to butcher the roosters. We named them. Never name your food. The hens we have now are adorable and are giving us 5-6 eggs a day. We will incubate some of these eggs for chicks and raise for butchering. So what I’m tring to say is go for it . We had no idea what we are doing. We are winging it. We have 15 acres and live on less than 5 of them the rest is trees and shrub. lOL. We plow with a lawn tractor a small field and have started planting our own vegetables this year. We have plants coming & up we have lost track of what some of them are due to storms washing away our signs. We will have to wait until harvest becuz we can’t tell from the leaves. We are not that familiar yet! LOL!
I just made this with raspberries and it was amazing!! Thanks for sharing with us!

I noticed that a few reviewers commented on cutting down on the sugar. I’m wondering if those people had opted to use the vanilla yogurt instead of the plain that is pictured here.

I am going to make this cake for a party tonight. It looks so delicious!! I was just wondering, though, do you bake at 325 or 375? It says both in the description. Also, what kind of butter did you use? Regular or unsalted? And do the ingredients need to be at room temperature?
hi sarah,
this isnt my blog but i have made this cake and its delish!!!! you start with the oven at 375 then turn it down to 325 when you put the cake in. good luck!
sarah, i have been on a bundt making frenzt this month so in my experience i would say to let all ingredients (except eggs) sit at room temperature. it’s easier to cream the butter when it’s softer. happy baking!
Do you know if this works with soy yogurt? I am lactose intolerant and often unable to fet lactose free yogur other than soy in our small town.
Hi Monna, You know, I’ve never tried that, but I bet it would. Have you baked with soy yogurt before? That would be your best indication.
I made this for Easter using coconut milk yogurt, vegan butter and egg substitute. It was great. A huge hit.

I belong to a fruit and veggie co-op and I had bought 16 lbs of strawberries and was looking for a way to use up what I had left when I came across this on Pintrest.
the only changes I made to the recipe is i used GF flour and xathum, other than that I stayed true to what you wrote and let me say this is a super moist and flavorful cake.
I will be making this again, for sure.

I just made this cake and OMG!!! I could eat the whole thing! It is so good and moist; almost like a pudding cake. I only used 1 1/2 cups sugar instead of 2 cups and will probably reduce it to one cup next time. The strawberries add plenty of sweetness. I can’t wait to make this again for my family and friends!

I love to make this cake! I might make it again soon, considering the strawberries I’ve got in my fridge!
I notice from your photos that you use 0% fat Greek yoghurt, rather than full-fat. Is there a baking reason for this? (I’m not sure what effect the extra fat would have on how the cake turns out.)
Excellent cake! Made this for my daughter’s13th birthday. Will be making it again. I did read the reviews and choose to use lesss sugar. Also the recipe has 325 and 375* in two different areas so I went with 375 since others had left comments about baking at 325 and it taking 2hrs. It was perfect in 1hr at 375. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Johnette, So glad you liked it! For this cake, I like to preheat the oven higher than the baking temp. I think it gives the crust a head-start to crisp up, so it comes out of the pan easily. That’s why two temperatures are mentioned in the directions. :)
This was ridiculously amazing. I made this (didn’t even try it first on my own family) for my Bunco group this weekend (1/12/13). Holy smokes! I probably should’ve made 2. BIG HIT. I didn’t change up anything in the recipe. I had 1 slice the next morning with my coffee and I thought it was even better the next day. Can’t wait to make it again!
Love it. Will try to experiment with the reduction of sugar, perhaps. Would love for the fruit to be more dispersed, so I may try to experiment with that too because I find the cake is slightly less cooked where the fruit clumps up. Also, I make it now with raspberries and substitute orange zest and juice instead of lemon. Always delish!
I’ve made this bread several times and it is absolutely wonderful! Whether you drizzle the top with the lemon glaze or leave it off, it’s delicious. Very easy to make. I have a hard time just eating one slice…

HELP PLEASE. On the strawberry yogurt cake, can I use frozen strawberries? Will it ruin the recipe? Also, can I use the baking soda that I keep to freshen the fridge to bake with? Finally, I have unbleached ap flour and cake flour, what is the accurate amount of cake flour, or should I use the unbleached?

Hi Stephanie, You can use frozen berries, just be sure to thaw and drain them first. The baking soda in the fridge has probably absorbed a lot of odors you don’t want in your cake–so I’d buy a new box. And go with the unbleached ap flour. Happy Baking! :)
Thank you
On the fresh strawberry yogurt cake, can I use frozen strawberries since they are not in season here?
I love this recipe! It has become a requested item at gatherings! Could you divide this batter and bake in the disposable loaf pans and have it turn out the same?
This reminds me of a basic coffee cake recipe. If you don’t have yogurt, sour cream can be substituted. I made this and I decreased the sugar by 1/2 cup and it came out great. My kids liked it although one of them didn’t like the softness of the fruit. But it’s a fruit, ya know? Kids…..
I’m going to try this. I will decrease the sugar a bit and some of the butter. I’m thawing out frozen berries for it. Let’s see how it goes…..

I have been looking forward to baking this cake for months now, and finally stumbled upon an abundance of strawberries. I really enjoyed making the cake, however thwart all change when it took 2k hours to fully cook! I’m not sure if it was because I used silicon bakeware or my strawberries were too juicy, but my cake is.sooooooo gushy and frankly discussing. I’ve only messed up one cake my entire baking career (an angel food I tested the doneness with a knife)! What did I do wrong? And I have aready decided to get rid of my silicone pan.
Hi Dominique, So sorry it didn’t turn out! It’s hard to say what happened without seeing it, but I’m not crazy about silicone bakeware either. The sides never develop a “crust” giving baked goods stability. That’s ok for small things like muffins, but I’d have to guess you are right about the pan being the culprit.
Same thing happened to me but I have a regular bundt pan. The base of the cake turned out beautiful but the top turned out like mush. I followed the recipe to the letter. Is there a way to fix it? Do I need to cook it longer? This is the first person who seems to have had the same problem. Suggestions??
I would really like to make this for my friend’s birthday and since I dont have a bundt pan I was wondering how essential it is ?
I have this cake in the oven now and an hour has gone by and it’s still a long way from being done. It seems maybe 325 degrees is a little low.?

I made this cake last week and it was amazing!! I want to make it for a work function soon, but one of my coworkers has a milk allergy. Any ideas how soy yogurt would work/taste as a substitute for greek yogurt?
Just made this cake and it was a huge hit!!!! Thank goodness for pinterest who brought me to your website. For anyone reading comments, this is a definite must!
This is the second time I will be making this cake. It is so delicious; even better when it has been refrigerated. Definitely a keeper in our house!
This cake is my new all time favorite! I have made it quite a few times now and I am making it again next week for our Mommy morning coffee at my house on the first day of school. I have added other berries as well, my favorite is strawberry, blueberry, and blackberry. :) Might add peach this time since I just got some wonderful peaches.
I was wondering how the cake would turn out if I use sour cream instead of greek yogurt? Any idea? I want to make this cake tomorrow.
I think that would work, Charlotte. Let me know how it turns out. :)
Sommer, baked this wonderful cake for our office luncheon yesterday and took a chance and used light sour cream in place of the greek yogurt (trying to use what I had on hand) and it was a hit-everyone loved it and turned out absolutely prefect. Next time I will cut down on the sugar as previous post did (Julia). Thank you for the recipe!
Cut the sugar in half, and it was just perfect! Thank you for the recipe!
Thank you for the tip, Julia; I am going to do just that!
This looks absolutely fabulous and I can hardly wait to make this soon!
What is the best way to store/travel with this cake? Does it need to be refrigerated or can it be left out if covered?
I just carried one on a plane in one of those plastic cake carriers! This cake can be left out on at room temperature for a couple days before it needs to go in the fridge.
What is the best way to store this cake? Does it need to be refrigerated or can it be left out if covered?
Does anyone know if you HAVE to use greek yogurt? Or if you can just use regular?
Hey Kate,
You don’t HAVE to use Greek yogurt, but drain the regular yogurt thoroughly to eliminate the extra moisture. :)

I made this recipe as cupcakes, they turned out wonderful. I also used this recipe to make white cake/chocolate cake swirled cupcake for my daughter’s fourth bday at school. This is a great alternative if you want cupcakes without icing. I used the Fage greek yogurt which made a really thick batter, so when I made the two batters I made half the recipe in one bowl (One stick butter, 3/4 cup sugar, 2 eggs, 1 1/4 c flour, 1/4 tsp each soda and salt, 4 oz yogurt) and the chocolate half in another bowl (One stick butter, 3/4 cup sugar, 2 eggs, 1 c flour, 1/4 c cocoa, 1/4 tsp each soda and salt, 4 oz yogurt). I’d even add more yogurt next time just to get a good consistancy to swirl the batters. Wonderful!
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I just made it today & WOW it’s delicious and beautiful. I followed your directions to the T as you said. I also really appreciated the common mistakes article you posted this really helped out a lot. Especially since I consider myself more of cook then a baker, but after mastering this I think it’s safe to say I am good at Art and Chemistry, lol.
Nicole, I’m so glad to hear it! Baking is a completely different mindset than cooking. :)
I made this yesterday – didn’t have a bundt cake pan, so I made them into muffins. They were a huge hit – delicious, so moist and tasty! Thanks for sharing!
Excellent recipe! I followed it to a tee, and it came out perfectly! I did use crisco to grease the pan and had no problems with it coming out! A big hit! Thanks
What a wonderful cake for summer. It appears others agree with me as well. It appears that the batter only comes about halfway in your pan. My bundt pan is an 8″…should I not use all the batter so that it doesn’t go over the top.
Hi Karen, I would put it in two pans so it doesn’t spill over the top.
Hi, this cake looks incredible! Just a quick question? There really isn’t any baking powder in this recipe? It’s really baking soda being used here?
Thanks! I think I’m making it this weekend with blackberries!
Just made this and it is so moist and delicious! THANK YOU for sharing!

I made this cake exactly as the recipe says and it was DELICIOUS! My co-workers (who I bake for often) said “This is the best you have EVER made.” My husband rarely eats sweets and he ate several pieces after I forced him to try it. I think this recipe would also work great as a plain lemon cake, or raspberries instead of strawberries. Thanks for a great recipe!
I hate to ask but I can have anything I want as long as I can break down carbohydrates,sodium fat etc. do you know what they are or where I can find it or I can add up all these ingredients . myself and divide by 12 lol Can’t wait to make it! Thanks for sharing on YOUR WALL
Hey Eunice,
Here is a recipe nutritional fact calculator you can use: http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/recipe_analysis.php
I usually cut this into more than 12 pieces–I just find that 12 is the standard # of servings for a bundt cake.
If you cut it into 16 pieces it’s around 358 calories per serving. If you substitute one of the sticks of butter for apple sauce, it cuts out 50 calories and HALF the fat. …I like the buttery flavor though.
I pinned this quite some time ago and finally made it today for a Memorial Day picnic…it was awesome! Thanks for sharing!

I just finished making the cake and it is to die for. I highly recommend this recipe. Mine looked just like the picture and super moist. I will probably make it again next weekend for a few guest that will be visiting from out of town.
Wonderful recipe! Used this for my daughter’s first birthday- as cupcakes! I substituted 1/2 of the butter for apple sauce and used slightly less sugar and they were delicious. Thank you.
About how many cupcakes did the batter make? I was going to attempt the same thing. Also, how long did you cook them for?
I didn’t have any strawberries but had blueberries and blackberries. Turned out amazing! Thank you for sharing and I can’t wait to try with strawberries next. :)
I made this today (just pulled it out of the oven) substituting applesauce for 1/2 of the butter, and using cake flour & white wheat flour (I used just shy of half wheat flour). I tried some of the bits that stuck to the pan and it is delicious! Can’t wait to try it with the glaze! I did have to add about 10 min to the cooking time and some places still look very wet like it could’ve gone a little longer (might just be moisture from the strawberries or my oven). I’ve seen quite a few people ask about using applesauce so I just wanted to share my experience. Definitely recommend trying it!
Thank you for sharing, Amanda! I was hoping someone had success with applesauce!
I made this cake and it turned out AMAZING, then making it again it turned out really bad?! So I was re reading to see what I had done different and the first time I had accidentally used baking powder and the second time followed the recipe and used soda and it turned out not very good. Since the powder made it rise…did anyone else have this?
Anyways, it will forever be a staple in my house because it is one of the best cakes I’ve had (and Im normally a chocolate girl!) but I will stick to using baking powder! :)
I made this on Sunday and it turned out GREAT! My whole family really liked it. It was deliciously dense and moist. I will definitely be making it again!
I found this gorgeous cake on Pinterest and am featuring it today for a terrific Mother’s Day cake. Thanks for the inspiration!
It’s baking in the oven right now!!! Can’t wait to taste it.

Does this cake have to be kept in the fridge….can’t wait to make it.
I will definitely make this cake again. However, next time I will use fresh picked strawberries, vanilla (instead of plain) yogurt and skip the lemon glaze. I’m sure that’s what the recipe intended, but now I know to not to cut corners;) The cake was very tart and it took 1.5 hours to bake.
Made this cake for my son’s birthday. It was a big hit! I cut the sugar back to 1-1/2 cups. Next time, I will use only one stick of butter and use the equivalent amount of applesauce, which I’ve done many times to save on calories and fat (no one can tell the difference). My cake also shrank a little, but it was still delicious! Thanks for the recipe!
Pingback: strawberry cake number 2… - boscopix photography
Ive made this recipe twice now and every time, the batter bubbles over making a huge mess! The first time I thought it was because I used room temp ingredients. I ended up cutting off the top that crusted over and putting it back in the oven to try to save it. It was actually delicious and I’m so glad I saved it! This time, I put a pan underneath, but it is still making a huge mess! What could it be?! I love this recipe, but don’t like what it does to my oven :))
Suzy, I wonder if your bundt pan is a bit smaller than mine. The one I used is labeled on the bottom 10-15 cup.
This is delicious!!! Thank you! I used & referenced this as my source on a post of my own!
I’ve made your cake 5 times in the last 2 weeks. Everyone LOVES it. The Greek yogurt gives the cake such a wonderful tang that you can’t even get with buttermilk.
The first time I made it was for my mother and the ladies who live together in a board and care home. When I visited the day after I delivered the cake, they couldn’t say enough about it, and requested another. So far I’ve made them three. :) I love making these women smile, and this cake makes it easy!
Thank you!
I made this for Easter and it was super yummy! Extremely moist and just the right amount of sweetness!
The only changes I made was to substitute 1 cup wheat flour and 1 tsp vanilla. Thanks for the great recipe!

I just made this cake today. I had the same problem as Marian. It was more like cookie dough than cake batter. Had I had some buttermilk, I would have added that. All I had was milk so I added about 3/4 to a cup of milk and it was better. I feared the outcome, but the cake is delicious! Can’t wait to try it with other fruits. Thank you for the recipe!
Kimbery~ As far as the batter goes, the only thing I can figure is that the brand of Greek yogurt you bought is denser (with less liquid) than mine. I think you it would have turned out even without the milk, but it sounds like it was great anyway. I’m SO glad!
147 calories for a piece of yummy cake??? I’LL TAKE IT!!! =]
How did you analyze this to get this calorie count? If that is the case I will certainly make this (and probably eat more than I’ll share)!!! Well, regardless I am making it because it looks so good, but I’ll probably eat more than I’ll share :)

ok.. I just made this but my “batter” was almost more like dough!! help!! What did I do wrong!! It filled the bundt almost to the top.. .so I put a pan in the rack below incase I had overflow…
I don’t have an electric mixer so I creamed the sugar/butter and incorp the eggs, flour and yogurt that way too…
Did I mix it too much??
Hi Marian!
Could your bundt pan be smaller than average?
As far as texture, If you are sure you didn’t mis-measure, I’d have to guess your eggs were small or your butter was dry–sometimes butter dries out a bit in the fridge and changes the texture of things. Usually if that is the case, I add a little milk.
Let me know how it turns out!!
Do the left overs need to stay in the refrigerator?
Hi Dana,
It get sit out at room temperature for a couple days, if it’s well covered. Otherwise, refrigerate. :)
Don’t lower your temp to 325. Keep it at 375 for 45min. Don’t worry if the top starts looking dark and the inside is not done… The inside will cook and the cake will not burn. I used to have the same issue of batter overload…. This solved it… Found the tip out from grandmas lemon bunt cake recipe. Happy baking!
I am going to try this one without the 2 cups butter. Instead substitute with 2 cups unsweet applesauce. Much healthier. Hopefully we wont know the difference.
How was this when you made it with applesauce instead of Butter?

So I made this cake yesterday with a few substitutions: whole wheat pastry flour for white, almost a cup of white sugar (because it was all that I had) and a 1/2 cup brown sugar, about 2 tablespoon of butter and a little less than 3/4 canola oil. It turned out delicious!! Thank you for the recipe.
Thanks for these tips for subs. Will try with the ww flour and canola!
This cake looks absolutely delicious!! I love love strawberries. Is there a way to make it without so much butter?
didnt see your entry till just now, but I already wrote, I believe you can use 2 cups unsweet applesauce instead. Probably will not be able to tell a difference. It will still be very moist.
Do you mean one cup of unsweetened applesauce? I just put it in the over and used one cup as it called for one cup of butter.

Oh, I'm so happy to hear some of you have actually made this cake and enjoyed it as much as I do!!! Thanks Amy and Shea for giving it a try!
Shea- I'm sure the pan did have an effect on the cook time, but I'm glad it turned out in the end!
Just made this cake (2 actually, my hubs had a meeting), it's awesome :) When I tried the batter (yep, I'm a bowl-licker) it seemed like it would be too sweet, but surprisingly not (I think I'm also getting used to German cake, which isn't sweetened as much as back home). Wasn't able to properly cream the eggs (no mixer, just elbow grease), and made it in a 10" cake pan, so after 1 1/2 hours it wasn't QUITE cooked enough (I think it was the oven), but plenty of people still came back for seconds!
Made one small adjustment that worked beautifully – replace 1/3 of the strawberries with fresh rhubarb – aweomse!
Thanks for the great recipe!!

Sometime I have a little trouble with bundt cakes, but not so much with this one. When you take it out of the oven, it shrinks a little and pulls away from the sides. I think heavy greasing and flouring are the key to any bundt cake releasing from the pan–also a good glaze to cover up any cracks never hurts!
This looks fantastic and I think I'm going to make it TODAY.
However, quick question what is the difference between greek yogurt and using just a plain yogurt?
Greek yogurt is simply plain yogurt that has had some of the moisture drained off. Put plain yogurt in a sieve lined with cheesecloth and let it drain for about 4 hours (and up to overnight, depending how thick you want the yogurt to be). Done
what a beautiful cake….I have been wondering what else to do with those strawberries!! I love the picture of the strawberries in the basket, they look like huge berries in a laundry basket!

Ah! This is so pretty! I even have all the ingredients I need to make this, I just need to pop out and get a new bundt pan (mine stayed behind when I moved.
As for growing your own, good luck! There's nothing more exciting and rewarding than harvesting ruit and veggies that you've grown yourself!
Gorgeous cake, looks so moist and yummy!
OMG OMG I am so making this. Wow. And your pics! I lovey your site—am RSS and adding Twitter now;))).
OMG! Sommer, that cake is giving me the shakes! I love all those strawberry chunks peeking through and the texture is to die for. You really make good cake!
I was just wondering if you have a problem getting cakes out of bundt tins? I always have to wrestle with mine, and they usually come out with at least a small chunk or two still stuck in the tin. Even the nonstick one. Even with copious greasing.
Anyway – my 11 year old boy is leaning towards baking and we've been making cakes almost every other day the last week. I think this one will be next on our list :)
I make this cake a few weeks ago for the first time and it came out perfect. I rubbed veg oil generously inside pan then lightly dusted it with flour. Came out of pan perfectly with no missing chunks, which is rare for me with bundt pans. I am making it again as we speak. Hope u have as much luck as I did. This cake is so moist and wonderful! Definitely worth trying!
I had a problem with bundt cakes sticking in my pan no matter how well I peeped it. My bundt pan was old, so I bought a new pan and the problem was solved!
yummy Strawberries, and happy to see a yogurt cake featured ! In France yougurt cakes are one of the all time comfort foods and many kids have them at their 4pm snack. Making a strawberry shortcake this weekend can't wait !!
I make this EXACT cake with rasberries! Once summer hits, it is my go-to recipe, and I think I have made it more than a dozen times. Such a delicious, moist, satisfying cake. Plus bundt cakes are awesome. :)
can u use gluten free flour for this recipe?
Help! I am making this cake right now and have noticed on the “blog” part of the recipe it states to cook the cake at 325 degrees for 1 hour, but on the little “recipe card” part, it says to cook at 375 degrees for 1 hour. There is a vast difference! What temp did you cook your at, please?
Hi Joni! Sorry for the confusion… The recipe states to preheat the oven to 375, then reduce to 325 when you put the cake in the oven. That helps the crust form quickly, yet allows the cake to bake at a lower temperature.
So pretty! And I bet it tastes just like summer. :)
yes, you’re right it sure does taste like that.
