Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour your mini bundt pans.
  2. In a stand mixer, combine granulated sugar and room temperature unsalted butter. Beat until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing in milk, sour cream, strawberry extract, and vanilla extract until just combined.
  4. Whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and strawberry gelatin. Gradually add to wet ingredients on low speed.
  5. If using, stir in food coloring until the batter reaches your desired shade of pink.
  6. Pour the batter into prepared mini bundt pans, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake for approximately 30 minutes.
  7. Allow cakes to cool in the pans for about 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  8. Whisk together icing sugar, milk, and strawberry extract until smooth and glossy for the glaze.
  9. Pour the glaze over cooled cakes and garnish with fresh strawberries.
  10. Let the glaze set for about 5 minutes before serving.
