Instructions
Instructions
- Prepare ingredients: Cut cake into 1-inch cubes and hull strawberries.
- Assemble kabobs: Thread a cube of cake, followed by a strawberry, then a dollop of whipped cream, repeating until skewer is full. Leave some space at the end for handling.
- Add toppings: Drizzle with chocolate, sprinkle with decorations, or add mint leaves if desired.
- Serve: Serve immediately or refrigerate briefly before serving to keep whipped cream firm.
Notes
Use firm strawberries to prevent kabobs from sliding. For extra flavor, brush cake cubes with a bit of lemon syrup or liqueur. These can be made ahead but add whipped cream just before serving for best results.
