Doesn’t this Pandoro Strawberry Shortcake Recipe look absolutely amazing?! Let me tell you, it’s as good as it looks too! Strawberry Shortcake is a really easy dessert to make for your family as well as take with you for family gatherings, picnics, and parties. I’ve taken it to two gatherings in the last two weeks! Instead of ordinary shortcake, I’ve discovered Pandora Di Vernoa is simply divine, offering this traditional dessert a new twist with a delicious lemon filling inside this traditional Italian cake.

You’ll have no shortage of little helpers wanting to help shake the Pandoro cake with the powdered sugar that comes with it. Next, top with delicious sweetened strawberries. Since I try to make everything have a little less carbs, I used a sugar alternative, not sugar in my recipe. To make it easier for on-the-go transportation, I also opted for pre-made whipped cream instead of homemade.
This Pandoro Strawberry Shortcake Recipe was a hit with my family. Everyone loved the twist of using a traditional Italian cake with lemon cream filling instead of ordinary shortcake. It adds a whole new layer of flavor and deliciousness.
