Ingredients to make strawberry pudding cake
Condensed milk: At room temperature. You can use coconut condensed milk for a non-dairy version.
Heavy whipping cream: At room temperature. You can use soy whipping cream for a non-dairy version.
Strawberry jelly powder: You can use your favorite brand.
Water: To dissolve the strawberry jelly powder.

How to make strawberry pudding cake
Dissolve the strawberry jelly powder:
First, place the water in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Turn off the heat, add the jelly powder, and whisk until completely dissolved. Set aside.
Grease the pan:
Grease a 9-inch cake pan with a hole in the middle with vegetable oil. You can use a silicone mold. We found them easier to remove the pudding.
Blend the ingredients:
Add the condensed milk, heavy cream, milk, and jelly water to a blender, and blend on high speed for 5 minutes.
Refrigerate the pudding:
Transfer the mixture to the cake pan and place it in the fridge for at least 4 hours. We recommend overnight.
Unmold and serve:
To unmold, carefully dip the cake pan/mold in warm water for 20 seconds and remove. Place a plate on top of the cake pan/mold and turn the plate upside down so the strawberry pudding cake falls on the center of the plate. Decorate with fresh strawberries and some soft cookie crumbs on top! Serve immediately or refrigerate until serving!
Tips for making this recipe
- Dairy-free version: For a dairy-free version, replace the condensed milk with coconut condensed milk, the regular milk with soy milk, and the heavy cream with soy whipping cream.
- Gluten-free: Ensure the cookies are gluten-free if you want to garnish your pudding with soft cookie crumbs.
- Change the flavor: You can literally use any jelly powder flavor in this recipe! Try passion fruit, peach, watermelon, or blueberry!
- Make this recipe the day before: The strawberry pudding must be refrigerated overnight for the best results.
