Strawberries & Cream Cake
This Strawberries & Cream Cake is perfect for ripe spring strawberries. And it's easy to make, too! We used Partake Classic Pancake & Waffle Mix to whip up a quick cake and topped it with strawberry jam and fresh strawberries. When making our frosting, we chose Strawberry, Chipotle, and Fig Jam from Trade Street Jam Co., who creates fruit forward and clean tasting vegan jams that are low in sugar and high in flavor.
Ashley Rouse is the founder of Trade Street Jam Co., and has a background in food service, food marketing, and social media management. Her passion for culinary creativity led her down another road. She created her minority and woman-certified small batch jam company in 2008 while living in North Carolina.
10+ years later, her well-known jams are best used in craft cocktails, BBQ sauces, glazes for meats or vegetables, baked goods, yogurt, overnight oats, salad dressings and more. Ashley says she started her business to, "introduce the world to a concept bigger than sugar, unhealthy jam on toast."
