On the Menu: Angel Food and Strawberries





Ben and I are obsessed with fruit picking, obviously, and will pick anything that is pickable! But my favorite of all the fruits? Strawberries. When they're ripe, they fill the house/car/stores with that sweet smell of juicy red fruit, and I can eat a ton of them. Normally, I like a bite of fruit and then call it quits, but strawberries rise above. 

Whenever we pick strawberries, we stop by the store to get a box of Angel Food cake and some heavy whipping cream to enjoy a dessert without the weight of strawberry shortcake. This idea is by no means a recipe, or even something you can't think up on your own, but is really a recommendation to get out there, get your summer fruit, and make something sweet.

For our whipped cream, we beat heavy whipping cream and a drizzle of honey in the stand mixer to give it a touch of sweetness that's not cloying or overpowering. 

Enjoy!
