This beautiful single layer cake is actually simple to make, and can be done mostly ahead of time. But, you want to decorate it just before serving so the beautiful strawberry juice doesn't make a mess of your pretty cake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have never tasted lavender before, it tastes like it smells. That wonderful floral taste pairs with lemon and berries wonderfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips for Strawberry Lemon Lavender Cake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Watch your pan size:<\/strong> this recipe is for a 9 inch square pan. I love the uniqueness of a single layer square cake. You can use a 9 inch springform pan or a 10 inch bundt pan (other alternatives here<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use organic lavender:<\/strong> If you are going to decorate the cake with fresh lavender blossoms, be sure they are organically grown. No one wants a mouthful of harmful chemicals with their dessert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decorate before serving:<\/strong> as I mentioned above cut strawberries will bleed into the glaze and cake so wait until the last minute for the prettiest effect. Or use whole berries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
