This Spiderman cake was for another Cake4Kids recipient. I used the frozen buttercream transfer technique to make Spiderman's face as I only had a few hours after work to put it together. My sister helped by using candy melts in my new ABC mold to write our "Happy Birthday Jose" while I was at work. I love how clean it made the cake; it looks ten times better than my piping skills. This will definitely be a new go to technique for me.
The cake flavor request was for strawberry cake and I was excited to give this cake flavor another go. I have tried recipes with strawberry jello, strawberry puree, and strawberry yogurt but I couldn't recall an absolute favorite. This time, I used an adaptable white cake recipe as the base and substituted the sour cream for strawberry yogurt and gave it a boost of strawberry extract. My sister, who sampled the extra cupcakes, deemed it the best strawberry cake ever! We now have a new house favorite.
