Use the best quality ingredients for your strawberry shortcake. You can add an extra tad of sugar or vanilla extract for an extra kick of flavor, but be sure to use only the freshest fruit available.
For the whipped cream, whisk together egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form, then gradually add sugar. Fold in the remaining 125 ml (1/2 cup) sugar until stiff peaks form.
Brush the syrup evenly onto the top of one of the cakes on a spinning cake stand, cut side down. Place the other cake, cut side down, on top of the whipped cream.
Arrange as many strawberries as possible on the whipped cream and spread them out to form an even layer of strawberries across the top of the cake. Then, spread a large dollop of the whipped cream on top of the strawberries and spread out with an offset spatula to create an even and thin layer of cream.
