Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1-1/2 cup Butter, Softened; 3/4 cups Sugar; 3 Eggs; 2 cups Cake Flour; 3 teaspoons Baking Powder; 50 milliliters Milk; 1 Large Orange, Zest And Juice; 1 Tablespoon Honey; 500 milliliters Fresh Cream; 250 grams Strawberries; 1/3 cups Chopped Almonds (optional)

Servings: persons

1-1/2 cup Butter, Softened
3/4 cups Sugar
3 Eggs
2 cups Cake Flour
3 teaspoons Baking Powder
50 milliliters Milk
1 Large Orange, Zest And Juice
1 Tablespoon Honey
500 milliliters Fresh Cream
250 grams Strawberries
1/3 cups Chopped Almonds (optional)

1
Preheat oven to 170u00b0C (340u00b0F). Grease and lightly flour two 8-inch (20cm) round cake tins.
2
Cream butter and sugar until creamy and pale. Add eggs one at a time and beat until incorporated. Slowly add flour mixed with baking powder, a few tablespoons at a time, and beat until incorporated.
3
Add milk and orange juice alternatingly, a little at a time. Stir in orange zest and honey.
4
Divide cake batter evenly between the two cake tins and bake for about 30 minutes. They're done when you press down gently on the cake and it springs back. Switch the oven off and leave the oven door ajar with the cakes inside for another 10 minutes to cool slowly. (This prevents them from sinking in the middle!)
5
Remove cakes from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes before turning out onto cooling racks to cool completely.
6
Beat cream until stiff peaks form. Slice strawberries in half or into rounds, or however you like. Place one cake on a serving dish or cake stand and top with half the whipped cream, sprinkle with half the chopped almonds. Place the remaining cake on top and spoon on the remaining cream, top with the strawberries, chopped almonds and drizzle with honey.
