I learnt my lesson ...As an immature cook, I should not have tried baking!!
Few things..illai major things which I missed out
I did not use bread flour, instead used all purpose flour ..donno the difference
The amount of strawberries and flour quantity were not proportionate.
I used less quantity of sugar and it was not so yummy
Instead of coming out like this

My cake was like this
I'll not try again atleast in near future !!
P.S. This was a gift to P for his birthday and so made some modifications.
His thoughts were "Enna kodumai ithu , athuvum birthday annaikuuuu"

Hi,
Trial and error only we can learn so many things.Donot get upset for this. In future u will do excellent baking. Cheers!!!!
I learnt by making mistakes. Its OK
I am sure it tasted good. I just stopped to say hello.
Tell P that he is lucky that his wife tries...
You will do better next time, Just remember in baking everything has to be precise and to the book....
Whatever it is, Husbands are the creatures to test all your recipes ;-)
All the best for the future trials and convey my "paavams" to my friend "P" ;-)
Jus kidding. Heard that you cook well :-)
hey what happened to coffee and honey ?
i saw pushpa's blog - avanga avlo thelivaa sollirukkaanga !
enaakey tempting-aa irundhadhu try panna !!

Quote of the day......is too good
and about the cake i can't comment because even i can't do it, but for me, it looks nice
Not to worry bout how the cake turned out. The point is tat u´ve tried. Try it out again another time & u´ll b amazed to c the improvements. Practice makes perfect, dear!!!
The diff between bread flour & plain flour is tat bread flour contains higher amount of glutton than plain flour which prevents the cake from becoming too soggy as the strawberry topping has quite an amount of liquid.
I really hope tat u´ll succeed in ur next attempt. Do let me know when u´ve done it.
Good luck to u.
Params would have surely appreciated the effort.
Better luck next time. Bakin is surely not so easy! I guess it comes with more practice.
Happy bday 2 P.
