This no-bake strawberry mousse cake recipe features a thick strawberry mousse filling nestled on a Golden Oreo crust. The cake is topped with fresh strawberry jam and homemade whipped cream.
July continues with cake month. Iโm celebrating my birthday all month long. If you also have a July birthday, whip up one of the fabulous cakes and celebrate with me.
This strawberry mousse cake is so perfect for summer. Itโs a no-bake recipe and itโs super simple to put together. No-bake cakes are such lifesavers during the peak summer heat.
Not only is it no-bake but itโs full of strawberry flavor. Using fresh summer berries will give you more flavor and itโs what I highly recommend.
The filling and topping are set with gelatin but the cake needs to remain refrigerated. If it gets too warm, it will start to lose shape.
I topped the mousse cake with whipped cream and sliced strawberries. This is completely optional but it makes the cake extra pretty for the occasion.
