Strawberry birthday

I baked Ava a cake for her fifth birthday.  I feel like everyone deserves a homemade cake for their birthday with real butter and eggs in it.  For Ava I made a triple-layer strawberry cake (did you know you can put fresh strawberry puree in a cake?  marvelous), with fresh strawberry filling and pink cream cheese frosting.  It was way fun.  And what more thanks does a baker need than a picture like this?  Look at the strawberries in those cheeks!
