Strawberry Wafer Cake Bars
A sweet and creamy strawberry wafer cake with layers of fruity filling and a pretty pink white-chocolate topping. The crisp wafer layers soften overnight, creating a tender, sliceable bar that’s perfect for gatherings. Fresh strawberry flavor and a bright finish make these bars feel extra special with minimal effort.

Cake Instructions
- In a saucepan, bring the soy milk to a boil.
- In a separate bowl, mix the flour with a small amount of the boiling milk to create a smooth paste.
- Gradually add the flour paste to the boiling milk, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
- Let the mixture boil for about 5 minutes while stirring, then remove from heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.
- In another saucepan, cook the strawberries (fresh or frozen) over medium heat until they are soft and have released their juices. Blend until smooth and let cool.
- In a separate bowl, cream the vegan butter with the powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
- Once the milk mixture has cooled, combine it with the creamed butter mixture, stirring until smooth to form the cream filling.
- Stir in the blended strawberries and strawberry jam until evenly distributed in the cream filling.
- Lay one wafer sheet on a flat surface and spread one-sixth of the cream filling evenly over it.
- Repeat the layering process with the remaining wafer sheets and cream filling, ending with a wafer sheet on top.
- Cover the cake, place a light weight on top of the assembled cake to help the layers stick together, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Once set, prepare the pink white chocolate topping.
Pink White Chocolate Topping Instructions
- In a saucepan, melt the vegan white chocolate and vegan butter over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
- Add the red food coloring and mix until the color is evenly distributed and you achieve a nice pink hue.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then pour it over the top wafer sheet and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Allow the topping to set before cutting the cake into squares and serving.
Notes
- Cool both the cooked milk base and the strawberry puree before mixing with butter for a smooth, stable cream.
- Start with a tiny amount of food coloring (even if you measured 1 tsp) and adjust—color strength varies a lot by brand.
- Overnight resting gives the best texture: wafers soften and the cake slices cleanly.
