Today while I was in the grocery store, I saw angel food cakes and thought I would love to have some smothered in fruit cocktail and whipped cream. As I ventured around the store looking for the cans of fruit, I spotted ripe, juicy red strawberries!..YUM! This time of year, they would be hothouse or imported. But who cares!..SO instead, I got the strawberries!...I love to crush them up and let them sit in the fridge with a little sugar until it forms a nice syrup. Then pour it over the angel food cake and top with whipped cream...(light)
Others prefer however to use biscuits or white cake...
What do you prefer to spoon your strawberries over? Icecream is good too!

I absolutely love strawberry shortcake! We always get the little angel food cakes with that are shaped like little bowls. They have the middle cut down which is perfect for holding the strawberries! We do the same as you put them in sugar and let them set for a while then serve with whipped cream oh my goodness making me hungry!! We always have our first ones on my mom's birthday which is in June.

hello sandymay

i love those strawberry shortcakes that you found in the grocery store today. i haven't seen any of them yet this year. i have to go grocery shopping this coming Friday, so i imagine that i will be seeing them then. lol and that is what that i also do with the strawberries that i bring home from the store as well. i clean the strawberries and then slice them and put some sugar on them and sit them in the fridge and let them produce the syrup. they are so good to eat like that. and i also like either pound cake or angel food cake to spoon my delicious strawberries over, and of course i have to have the Cool Whip on the top of all of it. yum. enjoy the strawberries that you got at the store today!

take care and have a beautiful afternoon.

Hi TnWoman...I think I will be enjoying them any minute now!!!
Usually I dont buy them til our local ones are ripe around june-july but they looked sooooo good!!...YUP. I love the cool whip as well and its one of the few things where I can buy cool whip "LITE" and not tell the difference! I also like fresh cream from a cow and make my own!

My husband grew up in the western United States. His Strawberry Shortcake is sacred ground.

You must have flaky, fluffy biscuits, real whipping cream made fresh with a pinch of sugar and vanilla topped over freshly washed strawberries. Oh, don't forget the fresh strawberry syrup. I think you can find a basic syrup recipe on google.

Oh, oh, I have to go get some strawberries. Now I want Strawberry Shortcake. Although, I'm still digesting the Corned Beef and Cabbage St. Patrick's Day Meal.


myLot reputation of 96/100. sandymay48 (1128)   ranked 194 out of 11,228 in cooking  10 months ago

I like them that way also...I just like the cake better!...lol
But I do love to make my own whipped cream with cream straight from the farm!! That way you can add your own amount of sugar and vanilla! I prefer to make my own syrup right from the berries....
ANd.....I hope you saved me some corned beef because I didnt make any!!lol

Sorry, we went to an Irish Pub (ha,ha in Michigan) and ordered the meal. blush It wasn't as good as what I make at home but I left a very clean plate behind. drool

I like the angel food cake also... but I'd rather make a nice shortcake out of biscuit dough. I just put a little bit of sugar in the biscuit and then when the biscuit is done.. split it and pour the strawberries over it and then top with whipped cream.

I absolutely LOVE strawberry shortcake. I'm like you, I like to crush a few, put sugar on them and let them sit for awhile. They are nice and sweet that way. I think strawberries without sugar is just not as good. I prefer angel food cake or a white cake for my strawberry shortcake. I can eat it with or without whipped cream - good either way! I really don't care for strawberries on ice cream however. Spring is coming if there are fresh strawberries in the store! YUM!!

I really hungry for dessert after hearing about your strawberry shortcake. Oh by the way I think I would chop up the strawberrys and put it in the fridge over night with some sugar that sounds good!

We love to spoon our crushed strawberries over homemade hot oatmeal waffles, and top that off with whip cream. Or you can take the strawberries and put them in a blender with a little milk and then add ice cream and have a strawberry shake.

Mmmm, Mmmm Good! End of June beginning of July is strawberry picking time here in Wisconsin.

I usually use the little store bought angel food cakes, too. I do the same as you. Put sugar on them, let them sit in the fridge, and then put them on the angel food cakes and top with cool whip. Strawberry shortcakes are one dessert I have always loved, and will never get tired of.
