Shortcake
Cultural Classic
Shortcake is a traditional dessert in American and British culture, often served at celebrations.
At the Fourth of July picnic, they served homemade strawberry shortcake.
Fruit Pairings
Although strawberry is most common, shortcake can be paired with other fruits like peaches or blueberries.
For our gathering, I'll make a peach shortcake topped with fresh whipped cream.
Not a Cake
Despite the name, shortcake is more like a sweet biscuit than a fluffy cake in texture.
I enjoy the buttery texture of shortcake; it's different from regular sponge cake.
