Why is my strawberry cake not rising?<\/h2>\n

Did you forget to add in the baking powder or maybe used expired baking powder? Yep, you heard me, rising agents can lose their powers if stored for too long. Is your cake also really dense? Well, did you really add the eggs one at a time and beat each for half a minute? A shot of mineral water can help the next time. <\/p>\n

Can you make cake batters with baking powder ahead of time?<\/h2>\n

Batters with baking powder in them can be covered and stored in the refrigerator for about 4 hours. However,  that is not great and to play it safe the batter should be baked immediately after preparation. Baking powder reacts to moisture. The rising power is lost if it is stored for too long.<\/p>\n

Storing fresh strawberry cake:<\/h2>\n

You can freeze the strawberry cake without a problem. Make sure to let it cool down completely, then cut the cake into individual pieces and carefully wrap those into cling film. When you\u2019re ready to enjoy a piece of strawberry cake, take it out of the freezer and let it thaw at room temperature.<\/p>\n

The cake can be stored in the freezer for up to six months. Caution: once thawed, cakes should not be frozen again.<\/p>\n
