Some of the things I remember doing when I was much younger were playing outside, climbing trees, and hiking through the woods.  It was a much simpler time without the internet and all these gaming devices that kids have now.

We used our imagination and played with leaves and sticks.  It’s kind of funny to look back at how much of a tomboy I was growing up.  That isn’t me at all now.  Getting dirty and being outside too much isn’t my cup of tea now.

Although, I have my moments and do things like survive a Tough Mudder and run a Warrior Dash.  Yes, I’m bipolar in my mud thinking.

One thing that I used to be opposed to was the color pink. Tomboys don’t wear pink!  It was blue or black all the way. Fast forward 20+ years and now I’m a girlie girl who wears pink and loves cute clothes and accessories.  Funny how that happens.

Not only do I like to wear pink, but I love baking pink food too.  A few years ago I made these pretty Strawberry Cheesecake Cupcakes that are always popular this time of year, so this year I wanted to make a fun pink cake.

I have noticed lately that I have a thing for bundt cakes.  Seriously, every cake I have made lately has been a bundt.  What can I say, “I like big bundts, and I cannot lie.”  LOL!

These bundt cakes are so soft and delicious that they really do not need any frosting.  But I also have a thing against naked cakes, so I like to add chocolate drizzles.

It isn’t necessary, but it really does make the cake that much prettier. And extra chocolate is never a bad idea!

How to make a Strawberry Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake:

  1. Mix together the cake mix, pudding mix, milk, strawberry powder, sour cream, eggs, and oil in a large bowl. (full recipe at bottom of post)
  2. Gently stir mini chocolate chips into the strawberry cake batter.
  3. Spoon the mixture into a greased bundt cake and bake.
  4. Let it cool in pan 10-15 minutes, then flip out onto a plate to cool completely.
  5. Drizzle melted white chocolate over the top of the cooled cake.

The last thing I added to the strawberry cake were some chocolate covered strawberries.  You can use store-bought ones if you want, but they are very easy to make on your own.

How to make Chocolate Covered Strawberries:

  • The biggest thing that I have learned with doing chocolate covered strawberries is that room temperature berries dip better.  Cold ones tend to get slimy.  And we know that slimy and chocolate is not a good combo!
  • Make sure you use a good quality chocolate for dipping.  Not only will it work better, but it will taste much better too.
  • Roll a few of the dipped strawberries in mini chocolate chips before the chocolate coating sets up.  You can also use nuts or sprinkles.  Sprinkled berries would look so fun on top of this cake.
  • Add white chocolate drizzles to the chocolate covered strawberries for another fun decoration.

Use a little bit of the melted chocolate to attach the finished berries to the top of the strawberry bundt cake, and push the decorated straws into the back.

Then get ready for everyone to think you bought the cake from the store because it looks so fancy!  True story!

    OMG! Same here! I was SUCH a tomboy. My mom made me a dress when I was 5, and I refused to wear it and made her cry. And now I am more girly . . . probably because I’m raising the most girly girl there ever was, lol!!! This cake looks amazing Jocelyn!

    I love baking pink too, Jocelyn. And this is the most deliciously girly cake! I saw those decorations at Target too, but I’m positive you used them the best out of anyone who saw them. The drizzle is a must!

      I bought the strawberry pudding at Walmart. You can just use a vanilla pudding mix and 1 teaspoon strawberry extract in place of it. I hope you enjoy the cake.

    Thank you for the quick response; tried our local Walmart but I’ll try one in a bigger town, this is Rural USA. Hope it is as good as it looks.

      You can leave the powdered milk out or use a teaspoon of strawberry extract instead. I just like to add a little bit more strawberry flavor to the cake mix. I hope you enjoy the cake.
