"this cake came out really gummy and the strawberry puree sank to the bottom of each layer. the frosting also needed less powdered sugar, because when I mixed it into the white chocolate and cream it b..." See moreecame very stiff, and hard to frost with. Both the cake and the frosting were a bad consistency. Definately not making again."
