Critical Success Points

  • Rub the sugar with the zest and vanilla seeds to release the aromas.
  • Do not heat the butter to the point that it becomes hot.
  • Assemble the batter and strawberry layers without pressing them in.
  • Bake until the knife blade comes out moist but clean.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle melted butter carefully to avoid burns.
  • Use gloves or a protective sleeve when removing the hot cake from the oven.
  • Be careful with the knife when testing doneness.
