what kind of icing goes best on a strawberry cake?

cream cheese is my favorite for strictly "icing"

My mother makes a strawberry cake and uses a mixture of vanilla pudding and cool whip as the frosting which is fabulous. Gives it a lil more strawberry shortcake taste.

Cream Cheese frosting with drained macerated strawberries(put strawberries and sugar in a bowl in the fridge for about 2 hours until sugar turns to juice) mix frosting and drained strawberries. refrigerate leftover cake because of strawberries.

Coolwhip and some fruit. (strawberries, cherries..) I'm not too fond of actual frosting on a strawberry cake. Who said cake needs frosting? ^^ I mean, if you really want frosting, vanilla would probably be best.

I, on the other hand, stick with coolwhip <3

u can use a traditional cream cheese icing, or just use cool whip

or vanilla frosting, or strawberry frosting,

u can use all different kinds and be creative i have used all of those but like too use vanilla frosting and then top it with cool whip

Cool Whip and Strawberry Jello, Chill the Strawberry Jello until its not quite done and mix it with the cool whip..yummy.

make a white icing and put strawberry juice in it, or make a cream cheese frosting !

Oh, yum. Try a nice fluffy white frosting. Perhaps a whipped one. Yum.

Whipped cream. Just do it like normal whipped cream and spread on your cake.

vanilla or strawberry icing or strawberry jam

I just use coolwhip and then top with fresh stawberries, I think they even have strawberry coolwhip now
