  • “Love it!!! tastes good on top of cheesecake cupcakes!!!”

  • “Excellent – fast, easy, and absolutely delicious!I added it to whipped cream and just lightly combined for an amazing filling for a chocolate cake. Would be really yummy poured over ice cream too!”

  • “I used this as a filling with a white chocolate cake. It’s perfect. Delicious! It’s not too sweet but it’s got terrific strawberry flavor. I think the simplicity is what makes it great. It’s thickens nicely but doesn’t get to gelatinous. It came out great! If I could, I’d give it 10 stars!”

  • “This is the first time I have ever made a fruit filling from scratch.I LOVED it!!! It was sooo yummy!!! This recipe is proof that with just a few simple ingredients, you can create something absolutely delicious :~)”

  • “I love this recipe and have used it many times. You can also use this basic recipe with other fruits like raspberries and pineapple!”

  • “I made this for my daughter’s vanilla birthday cake, it was delicious, perfect consistancy. Thanks for sharing!”

  • “This was amazing!!! It tasted soo good and the consistency was great!!! It was the perfect choice to fill my cake. Thank you soo much!!!”

  • “This recipe as written had great consistency, and I am sure if your strawberries are sweet it tastes great too. My strawberries were frozen from my garden and were quite tart…even adding extra sugar didn’t help, so after making the original recipe I ended up adding a package of strawberry jello mixed with 1/4 cup of boiling water and a splash of corn syrup and that fixed the taste and added a little extra firmness from the jello. It was perfect with “White wedding cake” I made it with.”

  • “very good recipe! I made this with a strawberry cake and covered with chocolate ganache. YUUUMMMMMMYYYY!!”

  • “OMG!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you….I just tried it for the first time and I luv it! I will continue to use this recipe for a long time..The taste and consistency were great! Thanks Again , Genie”

  • “I made this today to go in an angel food cake roll.I used frozen strawberries instead of fresh.This has an excellent flavor, but mine was a little runny to be used as a filling in itself–probably because of the frozen versus fresh strawberries.I mixed the filling with some cool whip and it was yummy.Sadly, the angel cake roll didn’t make; so we cut it up into small pieces and put the filling on top.Still wonderful!I want to try making this and injecting it in cupcakes!!!”

  • “Quick, easy and tasty.I used it as filling for #252101 White Chocolate Cake with Strawberry Filling, instead of the preserves that that recipe called for.Thanks for posting!”

  • “i used strawberry and rasberry.quick, easy, great tasting!”

  • “excellent! U used this inside a chocolate layer cake and froted it all with vanilla icing. Great recipe-I am going to try this with other berries too-thanks!”

  • “I should have rated this a long time ago! I have used it several times with great success to fill my cake layers. Everyone raves over how lovely it tastes! I have even offered the recipe to others for its wonderful simplicity. It sure has been a keeper for me.”

  • “Recipe was easy and delicious, will definitely be making this again!!”

  • “This strawberry filling was UNREAL!I’ve tried so many filling recipes in the past and they always turned out with a terribly runny consistency inappropriate for cake layering.This was truly perfect.I made this as a filling for a dark chocolate cake (Recipe #2496) with Kittencal’s Chocolate Buttercream Frosting and my guests were in heaven!I received so many nice compliments.This filling was a perfect match for the cake and I’ll definitely be using it again.Thanks for a great recipe!”
