Strawberry Sugar Free Cake
The best sugar-free cake I have developed, with only 2 grams of net carbs for the whole portion.
As I am in love with meringue anything, here are few more meringue recipes I have already made.
Sugar Free Strawberry Desserts
Everyone loves strawberries. And when the season comes, we have lots of them in the house, looking for a way to either preserve them or use them in some delicious desserts.
Or sugar-free strawberry cake is the best option for using lots of them in one go. And all of this from complete scratch.
Finally, you might have fresh, mushy, soft, and delicious strawberries left. Whip up a perfect morning strawberry mint keto smoothie, and all the rest pour for fruit roll-ups everyone will enjoy.
Gluten-Free Strawberry Cake
Once you make this cake, you will realize that our cake is a gem. It is not only sugar-free but also belongs to the strawberry gluten-free cake department.
This strawberry jam cake gives you that moist feeling as jam soaks into the base of the cake, giving you a full blast of strawberry flavors.
Type Of Layer Cake
I had no idea how to name this cake as it combines several varieties. But what it is for sure is strawberry dream coated all over.
Combination of two layered sheet cakes, filled as a jam cake, visual of a shortcake, and fully diabetic cake because of its carbohydrate content.
Additionally, sugar-free meringue frosting added with even more flavor.
And all of this being a perfect, entirely gluten free cake.
Just a dream. Dream everyone has.
When you make this recipe, you will realize how fluffy and soft the base is. Forget dense cakes.
Strawberry Gluten Free Cake
Can a Cake Be Baked Without Sugar?
I have the correct answer if someone wonders if you can ever bake a cake without sugar. Yes, you can have the best cake without a pinch of sugar. Our cake is excellent proof of it.
Is Sugar Free Vanilla Cake Really Sugar Free?
Our cake today is a sugar-free cake. As I do have the advantage of letting my daughter, who is diabetic, try all of my recipes and see the curve of blood sugar, I can confirm that this cake is entirely sugar-free and diabetic-friendly and does not raise blood sugar levels.
Our recipe calls for using substitute sugar instead of regular sugar, which is what helps dearly. Once you get used to sugar free baking, you will get more comfortable using various sugar alternatives and realize each one is good for something else.
How Many Carbs Are In Our Sugar Free Cake?
Sometimes even I wonder how I have accomplished baking this cake without the grams of sugar.
The recipe makes enough portions, even for 12 people.
This diabetic cake, full of flavors, fillings, and frostings, has only 3 grams of carbs and 1 gram of fiber. This taking as net carbs, you get an incredible 2 grams for a whole portion.
Nutritional Information of Diabetic-friendly Strawberry Shortcake
With 128 calories per piece, 8 grams of fat, 7 grams of protein, and already mentioned 2 grams of net carbs, there is nothing else I should write.
You can enjoy a perfect combination, great satisfaction, and a complete keto cake.
What Is This Strawberry Sponge Cake Made Of?
With the look of a shortcake, our low sugar cake is made of a base baked with almond flour, a dash of vanilla extract, and sweetener.
As you see, I have decided to fill our cake with strawberry jam, which I made myself. But there are other options. If you would like to give it a little bit of your take, try filling it with the following:
To make a sugar-free cake that tastes as if it was made with regular cake flour and still gets minimal carbs is precisely what this frosted cake is all about. Using quite a few eggs in this recipe, together with light almond flour, makes the base soft and fluffy.
*Exact measurements are listed in the recipe card below.
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING DIABETIC-FRIENDLY KETO CAKE
First Step: Prepare all ingredients
Start preparing all of the ingredients. Have your eggs at room temperature and separate egg whites and yolks. Sweetener is best to have powdered for baking as it melts much easier.
If you have made our recipes, prepare jam and powder, and make the frosting if you have not.
At the same time, heat your oven to 160 Celsius or 320 Fahrenheit.

Second Step: Whisk Egg Whites and Egg Yolks
Using your kitchen machine, place egg whites into the bowl and mix until fluffy. Place the bowl aside. Using a second bowl, add egg yolks together with sweetener and whisk.
Sugar Free Cake
Third Step: Mix
Once you whisk your egg yolks, scoop in the egg whites into the bowl and mix on low until combined. This will give your cake a perfect volume and light consistency.
Keto Cake
Fourth Step: Add the rest of the Ingredients
Add all other ingredients using a spoon while your machine keeps whisking them.
Diabetic Cake
Fifth Step: Pour and Bake
Once your cake batter is thoroughly combined, pour it onto the large cake pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes.
Vanilla cake with strawberry filling
Sixth Step: Spread Jam
Make sure your sheet cake is thoroughly cooled before going into the next steps.
Make small holes throughout the cake using the back of the spatula or wooden stick. This will help your jam to get directly into the cake to add more moisture and flavor.
Once your holes are all made, cut your sheet cake into half and spread half of the strawberry jam on one half of the cake.
Place the other half of the top of the cake to form two layers.

Seventh Step: Extra Jam and Frosting
Spread the rest of the jam on top of the second layer of the cake.
On top of that goes meringue frosting. You can either spread it with a spatula or fill our icing bag and frost it.

Eighth Step: Strawberry Powder
Lastly comes our strawberry Powder. Place powder into the sieve or bigger tea sieve, as I have done, and gently powder your whole cake with dehydrated strawberry powder.

Tips and Tricks:
Strawberry Powder – add the powder into the cake mix before baking to get the beautiful red, pinkish color of your sheet cake.
Fruit Powder – if you are not using our recipe, you can pick any dry berries and grind them in your coffee grinder.
Jam – if you are not making your own, choose the one with the least carbohydrates. Best if no added sugar is involved.
Cool – your base sheet cake must thoroughly cool before filling and frosting.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
What To Serve With Sugar-Free Cake?
As our cake is filled with many great flavors, I believe nothing else is needed apart from a proper black coffee. But if it is served at a party and you want to add something extra, try:
Not at all. Our jam is thick and not liquid at all. It helps give the base of the cake the perfect moisture you need.
Can You Make a Sugar Free Birthday Cake?
This cake is the perfect cake for someone special or a base for any of your celebrations. Making the cake using different baking utensils or cake tins can be easily transformed into a birthday round cake, vanilla birthday cake, or bundt cake. You can even make a delicious wedding cake by doubling the recipe for a much higher beauty.
Strawberry Jam Cake
Can I Swap Meringue For Chocolate Frosting?
Yes, of course. This cake is just what I love and thought you would enjoy. But any of the layers can be swapped, added, or replaced. Use a chocolate frosting or even a cream cheese frosting.
How Do You Store Homemade Strawberry Cake?
Storing a keto sheet cake is super easy. Place it in a big glass container and cover it. Stored in the fridge, keep the cake for two to three days. As I am using all fresh ingredients, especially jam, I would not suggest storing this diabetic cake for longer.
Can You Freeze The Cake?
You can, but I would not suggest it. Our cake without sugar is topped with meringue, so it might become liquid after thawing.
