Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Store-bought angel food cake
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Strawberries
- 1 cup Blueberries
- 1 cup Chocolate sauce
- 12 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the store-bought angel food cake on a large serving plate or cake stand.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream using a handheld mixer or stand mixer until soft peaks form.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream, and continue beating until medium peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Slice the strawberries into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
Spread an even layer of the whipped cream over the top and sides of the angel food cake using a spatula.
Carefully arrange the sliced strawberries and blueberries on top of the whipped cream. You can create a pattern or simply scatter the berries for a more rustic look.
Drizzle the chocolate sauce over the berries in a zig-zag pattern. Use as much or as little as desired.
Garnish with mint leaves, if desired, for a pop of color and freshness.
Refrigerate the cake for at least 15 minutes to set before serving, or serve immediately.
