Instructions:
For the Cake:

8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the Berry Topping:
1. In a small bowl, toss the mixed berries with granulated sugar. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to allow the juices to develop.
Assembling:
1. Once the cake is completely cooled, place the mixed berries on top of the cake.
