Is it important to use apricot jam? Can I use strawberry jam?

[OnePotChefShow]

@TheShaligirly Use any jam you prefer - Strawberry would be lovely :)

[1rencel]

Cake turned out very well. Will this freeze alright?



[OnePotChefShow]

@1rencel Yes you can freeze it. Once the cake is completely cool, wrap it in a layer of plastic kitchen wrap (cling film) and then a layer of foil. The cake can be frozen for up to 6 months ;)
