Can you make strawberry angel food dessert into a trifle?
Of course! Use a trifle dish and make multiple layers of the dessert. This is especially great if you have lots of ingredients leftover and don’t want to throw them away. Make sure you have enough space in the fridge!
Can I use frozen strawberries for angel food dessert?
You can use frozen strawberries if you don’t have any fresh ones. However, fresh strawberries will look and taste a lot better. If you’re going to use frozen strawberries, you should let them thaw before you put them on the cake. Otherwise, they will drip their juices into the cake and make it unnecessarily soggy.
Can I make this recipe gluten free?
Yes, you can. All you will need for that is a gluten free angel food cake. The gluten free version of the cake will taste just as good, so don’t hesitate to put it in.
