For the best results, use fresh, ripe strawberries. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter. Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough cake. A hint of almond extract (1/4 teaspoon) can enhance the strawberry flavor. Dust the strawberries with a tablespoon of flour before folding them into the batter to prevent them from sinking to the bottom.
