In a moment winter will disappear completely and with it one of our most beloved winter fruits - the strawberries.

At the beginning of the season, their price is exorbitant and every strawberry is worth its weight in gold and is eagerly eaten, but just before the season ends, you can get a strawberry at a reasonable price.

This is the beautiful time of the strawberry jams and also of the cakes studded with sweet red.

This time Shani Sanders made a cake with coconut, white spelled flour and lots of strawberries on top.

Just what you need next to the coffee just before the red fruits disappear until next winter.

How do you make coconut and strawberry cake?

1 Heat an oven to 170 degrees and lightly grease an English cake pan.
2 Put the butter, sugar and salt in the mixer bowl and mix at high speed for 3-4 minutes, until a light and fluffy mixture is obtained.
3 Add the eggs one by one while mixing.
Stop the mixer, scrape off the butter stuck to the sides of the bowl with a spatula and continue mixing for another 2 minutes.
4 In a separate bowl, mix together the coconut, the sesame flour and the baking powder.
Add to the mixer bowl and mix manually with the help of the spatula to obtain a uniform and thick mixture.
5 Flatten the mixture in the mold, align and arrange the strawberry slices on top.
Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons of sugar on top and bake for 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out dry with moist crumbs.
