Strawberries and Cream is one of my favorite cake flavors so I was really excited to make this genoise version called French Strawberry Cake with the Tuesdays with Dorie group. The recipe is from the book Baking With Julia and was contributed by one of my favorite cook book authors, Flo Braker. I've tried some of her recipes from a few of her cook books before -- all really delicious -- so I had a feeling that this one would be really good as well. I was particularly interested with the fact that this cake makes use of a genoise base which I knew would soak up all the yummy juices from the macerated strawberries without making the cake soggy -- only delightfully moist and intensely flavored with strawberries.
