Fourth of July Crème Filled Strawberries ~ Get patriotic with an easy red, white and blue dessert for your 4th of July barbeque or picnic.
4th of July Creme Filled Strawberries
I have been tasked with bringing fruit for 4th of July. Matt suggested I keep it easy, to quote him, “Just chop and block some fruit and throw it in a bowl”. I could, but what fun is that. Besides you all know my predilection for all things pretty.
While this is not as fast as “chopping and blocking”, it comes pretty darn close.
No recipe just a few notes for this fast and easy dessert.
A few notes:
- Hull your strawberries and cut the bottom tips for a flat edge.
- Fill hulled strawberries with whip cream. I cheated and used Ready Whip. Martha would be so ashamed (sorry Ms. M, I ran out of time). On the flip side Sandra Lee would embrace me.
- Toss the blueberries in an apricot sauce. Uh, cheated again- I nuked apricot preserves in the microwave.
- Top crème filled strawberries with blueberries.
- For a fun adult version, add two tablespoons of champagne or vodka to every cup of whip cream.

Love these! Easy, healthy, and patriotic, too!
How charming! I would never have thought to stuff strawberries!
Another yummy thing to do with strawberries is to inject some Baileys (or your favorite liquor) into them with a flavor injector and then dip them in chocolate they are called Sex Berries
They look so majestic and proud!
