Yes.
Bake an Angel Food Cake (they actually have a mix that is great in the cake mix section of the grocery store) or you can buy one already made. If you bake it from scratch cook it in a bundt pan or poundcake-type pan.
Clean and cut up 1 pint of fresh strawberries. Add sugar and let them sit for at least 30 minutes.
Cut the angel food cake into layers. On the bottom layer add enough strawberries until the layer is covered, then top with the next layer and repeat. Frost the cake with a frozen whipped topping that has been defrosted. Use leftover strawberries to decorate the top. You can also use blueberries or raspberries.
It is delicious and gets rave reviews every time I make it!

ooh ooh i know family fav
100g flour
75g sugar
100g butter
2 eggs
cream sugar and butter till light and fluffy, the mix in eggs one at a time with a litle flour with each, fold in the rest of the flour. cook in pre heated oven at 200 c for 25- 40 mins. (sorry the cooking times vague but my oven is a little c***. but your oven may work)
Chocolate Sheet Cake
Melting the chocolate and butter in the microwave is quick and neat, but it can also be done in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan containing 2 inches of simmering water. We prefer Dutch-processed cocoa for the deeper chocolate flavor it gives the cake. The baked and cooled cake can be served simply with lightly sweetened whipped cream or topped with any frosting you like. We particularly like Creamy Milk Chocolate Frosting (recipe follows).
12 tablespoons (1 ? sticks) unsalted butter, plus 1 tablespoon for greasing the baking pan
? cup cocoa, preferably Dutch-processed
1 ? cups (6 ? ounces) unbleached all-purpose flour
? teaspoon baking soda
? teaspoon salt
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
4 large eggs
1 ? cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk
1. Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and heat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease the bottom and sides of a 13 by 9-inch baking pan with 1 tablespoon butter.
2. Sift together the cocoa, flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside. Heat the chocolate and remaining 12 tablespoons butter in a microwave-safe bowl covered with plastic wrap for 2 minutes at 50 percent power; stir until smooth. (If not fully melted, heat 1 minute longer at 50 percent power.) Whisk together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Whisk in the buttermilk until smooth.
3. Whisk the chocolate into the egg mixture until combined. Whisk in the dry ingredients until the batter is smooth and glossy. Pour the batter into the prepared pan; bake until firm in the center when lightly pressed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let the cake cool on a wire rack to room temperature, at least 1 hour; serve, or ice with frosting, if desired. (The cake can be wrapped in plastic and stored at room temperature for up to 2 days.)
Creamy Milk Chocolate Frosting
Makes about 2 cups, enough to ice one 13 by 9-inch cake
This frosting needs about an hour to cool before it can be used, so begin making it when the cake comes out of the oven. Use the best-quality milk chocolate you can find--it will make a big difference in this recipe.
? cup heavy cream
Pinch salt
1 tablespoon light or dark corn syrup
10 ounces milk chocolate, chopped
? cup (2 ounces) confectioners' sugar
8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into 8 pieces
1. Heat the cream, salt, and corn syrup in a microwave-safe measuring cup on high until simmering, about 1 minute, or bring to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat.
2. Place the chocolate in the workbowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. With the machine running, gradually add the hot cream mixture through the feed tube; process 1 minute after the cream has been added. Stop the machine; add the confectioners' sugar to the workbowl and process to combine, about 30 seconds. With the machine running, add the butter through the feed tube one piece at a time; process until incorporated and smooth, about 20 seconds longer.
3. Transfer the frosting to a medium bowl and cool at room temperature, stirring frequently, until thick and spreadable, about 1 hour.
