Homemade Strawberry Cake

This had excellent strawberry flavor!! I did add freeze dried strawberry powder (about 1/3 cup) to the batter but I truly believe the punch of strawberry flavor came from the reduced strawberry puree of which I had about 3/4 cup (and used all of it). I made the frosting and crumb coated the cake the night before. The next day I allowed the frosting to come to room temp, gave it a quick spin in the kitchen aid and finished frosting the cake. The cake was moist and tender and the frosting is AMAZING!
