Blueberry Lemon Creme Cake

 

One of the most common questions I get about this recipe is whether it matters if you use fresh or frozen berries. I have only made this cake with fresh blueberries, but the recipe should still work with frozen berries. However, keep in mind that frozen berries may have more moisture than fresh because of all the ice crystals.

If you want to use frozen blueberries, add them directly to the cake batter and skip the step where the berries are coated in flour.

Why Do My Blueberries Sink?
Coating fresh berries in flour helps prevent the berries from sinking to the bottom of the cake. However, there is no way to fully prevent this. I recommend using smaller berries if possible. Also I like to drop a few berries on top of the batter prior to putting the cake in the oven to bake.
