Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb fresh strawberries as uniformly shaped as possible

Method
 

  1. Wash and dry your strawberries.
  2. Cut the strawberries in half.
  3. Place the flat end on the cutting board. Carefully cut a "V" into the stem of the strawberry.
  4. Round out the sharp tips of the "V" that you cut out to make the strawberry look like a heart.

Notes

  • For best results, use strawberries that have a uniform shape and an even tip so the bottom of the heart will look realistic. 
  • Smaller strawberries have more flavor and are juicier than larger strawberries.
