Instructions
  1. Wash strawberries, and then slice into 1/2 inch pieces. Toss strawberries with lemon juice and sugar. Allow berries to sit for 20 minutes, or until juices from berries are released.
  2. Slice angel food cake in half so that it is in layers, not slices. Spread bottom layer with 1/2 of the whipped cream.
  3. Top the whipped topping with half of strawberries.
  4. Place second piece of cake on top of berry layer. Repeat whipped topping and berries on top layer of cake. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or up to overnight. Slice, serve, and enjoy the last of the summer berry bounty!
