Strawberry Rose Tea Cakes: Fresh strawberries baked into a tender, lightly spiced little bundt cake with a delightful floral scent of rose water. These really are lovely little cakes. 

My first time ever using rose water and, I have to say, I absolutely love it! Not only did it add a nice floral scent, but it adds a beautiful fresh taste as well. With a bit of cinnamon, cardamom and vanilla, the smells coming from the oven, Oh my!

These little cakes are my new addiction. I wish I had made more than six! I served mine up with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream and fresh diced strawberries. But they are absolutely delicious on their own. And did I mention addictive? You might want to make up an extra batch, just in case.

Strawberry Rose Tea Cakes would be the perfect little dessert for Afternoon Tea, Bridal Showers or Sunday Brunch. Or a unique twist on the ever popular Strawberry Shortcake.

And they only require about 35 minutes of your time to make, from start to finish. If you can’t find rose water at you local grocery store, I have provided a link at the bottom of this post. All of the other spices are available through the link below as well.
