Preparation:

Step 1
• Preheat oven to 175°C. Mix the dough according to package instructions. Bake.
Step 2
• Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the strawberries, cognac, and sugar. Let it macerate for 20 minutes. Invert the cake and transfer it to a serving platter.
Step 3
• Whip the cream with sugar and vanilla on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Do not overwhip.
Step 4
• Prepare the jelly according to the package instructions. Refrigerate, but don't let the mixture set; it should remain runny.
Step 5
• Use a straw to poke holes all over the cake. Pour the jelly onto the cake and spread it out so it gets into the holes.
Step 6
• Layer the cake with macerated strawberries. Spread a layer of whipped cream over the strawberries, creating beautiful swirls and ripples. Garnish with fresh strawberries. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
