  1. When a recipe like this says serves four, what it means: serves ME
     
  2. Delicious quickie dessert. I used Triple Sec for the orange liqueur. Instead of whipped cream, I served the berries over some raspberry frozen yogurt, which was fabulous. Thanks for sharing!
     
  3. This was such an easy dessert to put together and was the perfect ending to a great meal. Such a simple way to serve strawberries, yet so elegant. I really enjoyed my strawberries and will definitely be serving this recipe again. Photo also to be posted. Reviewed for ZWT8.
     
  4. Wonderful dessert. Low in calories. I used splenda and Grand Marnier. Thanks FloridaNative. Made for ZWT8 for Diners, Winers and Chives
     
  5. What a refreshing way to prepare strawberries. I did use orange juice instead of the liqueur and used the honey option given in the ingredients list. Just a very unique way to prepare strawberries instead of using a simple syrup. Made angel food cupcakes and placed the strawberries over them with a dollop of whipped cream for our dessert. Found and made during ZWT8.
