Mix above ingredients in saucepan and boil for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and drizzle over warm cake.

Note: I made this cake on my daughter's actual birthday since we had already celebrated with "birthday cake" several days before. She LOVED it! She has always been a fan of strawberries and she really enjoyed the addition of the flowers for decoration! It made a festive centerpiece for her birthday dinner as well!......I was inspired to make this cake by a friend who made one similar for a Bridal Tea we hosted a couple of weeks ago. The menu consisted of a variety of pound cakes on pedestals served with fruit and nuts - a very simple menu and perfect for a Sunday afternoon tea! The hostess displayed the cakes at different elevations on a table filled with satin, tulle and fresh flowers - it was a beautiful display! Will file that idea for the future!
