Cake for February 23 - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute cherries with other berries like raspberries or strawberries. You can also use canned fruits like peaches or apricots, drained well. Adjust the sugar in the syrup accordingly depending on the sweetness of the fruit.
This cake is best stored in the refrigerator due to the cream frosting. It will stay fresh for up to 3-4 days. Make sure to cover it loosely to prevent it from drying out.
While you can freeze this cake, the texture of the cream and mascarpone may change slightly upon thawing. If you want to freeze it, do so before the final meringue frosting is applied. Thaw it overnight in the refrigerator before decorating.
If you don't have mascarpone, you can substitute it with cream cheese. Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature and well-drained to avoid a grainy texture in the frosting.
To make this cake gluten-free, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Ensure that the baking powder is also gluten-free. The rest of the ingredients should naturally be gluten-free.
Use a pastry brush or a squeeze bottle to evenly distribute the cherry syrup over the cake layers. Don't over-soak, as this can make the cake soggy. Lightly brushing each layer is usually enough.
Yes, you can reduce the sugar in the cake batter and cherry filling to your taste. However, keep in mind that sugar contributes to the cake's moisture and texture, so reducing it too much may affect the final result. Start by reducing it by 25% and adjust from there.
