Tomorrow is Midsummer's eve, one of the biggest holidays in Sweden.
This is when we eat lots and lots of strawberries, pickled herring (not me!) and new potatoes and dance around the maypole (midsommarstång). It's also a tradition that the weather is crappy. Preferably a thunderstorm but heavy rain will do just fine.
But enough about that. Let's be positive!
I will eat cake tomorrow, or at least something sweet for sure. Strawberries are a must! That's why this cake is perfect for midsummer's.
Remember to remove it from the freezer at least 20-30 minutes before serving!
