This is the simplified version of the Cleveland Cassata cake, I will make this since even though I have the recipe for the Bakery kind, that's way too much work. Yours looks close enough so I'll make it. Thank you for making this and posting on youtube I subscribed stay BLESSED.
You’re from Cleveland Ohio? Me too! This is the Cleveland Italian Cassata. I make this often. I make it a little differently than u method wise but still the same strawberry custard whipped cream cake. It’s something we had at family functions being Italian.
I notice you use a lot of corn starch. You might take note that the enzimes in saliva can break down cornstarch. This is important to know, because if you are a person who likes to taste the batter or sause it could be a problem when you are using cornstarch. BTW, I have made cassata cakes and have never used cornstarch.
