Scrape the sides of the bowl using a spatula to ensure that all the mixture/ batter is whisked together.

Now take half a teaspoon of strawberry flavouring and add to one of your mixing bowls. (I used the smaller bowl).

Stir in; now add your concentrated food colouring to the same bowl using a cocktail stick. (I used sugarflair Christmas Red).

Now use your whisk to combine the flavour and colouring together.

Taste the mix with a small spoon to ensure it tastes ok. (Do not place the spoon back in your mix once tasted).

Pour the mix.
Now place the two mixes into 2 greased sandwich tins. (I used Bake Easy for greasing).

Once baked, remove from the oven skewer to ensure cooked and leave to cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.

Now turn out the cake layers onto a wire rack using a pallet knife, leave to cool.

Once cooled, place the white top layer onto a plate and cut using a circle biscuit cutter.

Transfer the small circle pieces of cake to a new plate.

Now repeat the process for the strawberry pink layer; place the bases on a different plate and then add a blob of strawberry jam to each circle and spread using a tapered knife. Do not spread all the way to the edge, as the jam will spill over when you press the top layer down.

Now pipe a little buttercream onto the top of the jam, again not too much.

Now add the white top layer of the sponge.

To complete the cake, pipe a little buttercream to the top, add half a strawberry and then dust with some icing sugar. Add additional sliced strawberries to the plate for decoration.
