Strawberry Buttermilk Cake Recipe – Celebrate Strawberry Season with In The Raw® Sweeteners!

I love when strawberry season arrives and it’s here. Even though strawberries are available all year long, they are so much better when they are grown locally. There are so many strawberry recipes but one of my favorites is the Strawberry Buttermilk Cake. Not only is it made with fresh strawberries, but it’s also made with Sugar In The Raw Organic White® which is a wholesome alternative to refined white sugar. And when you make a cake from scratch, it’s always way better than a box. (and not as hard as you think!)

Did you know that Sugar In The Raw is Fair trade certified, USDA Organic and non-GMO, it’s a perfect choice for both you and the environment. The Strawberry Buttermilk Cake is just one of the berry delicious new recipes featuring Sugar In The Raw Organic White® are the perfect way to enjoy strawberry season.

The reason I love In The Raw® is because it blends, browns and dissolves easily in cooking and baking recipes. Sugar In The Raw Organic White® crystals are never bleached, retaining their natural-white color.
