For a richer flavor, use browned butter in the cake batter.
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet to avoid developing the gluten and creating a tough cake.
If you don't have sour cream, plain Greek yogurt can be used as a substitute.
For a more intense strawberry flavor, macerate the sliced strawberries with a tablespoon of sugar for 30 minutes before decorating the cake.
